*''The Simpsons Movie'' has this logo appear at the very end of it, but it looks like a slightly rushed attempt at recreating the original logo, as the background of the lit up screen room (apart from the "shushing woman") appears to be a photo still of the original logo, which fades into a Flash-esque animation with a darker blue light and a smoother font.
*An early variant of the enhanced version appears at the very end of ''The Simpsons Movie.'' The lit-up theatre (apart from the "shushing woman") appears to be a photo still of the original logo, which fades into a Flash-esque animation with a darker blue colour for the light and a smoother font for the text.

*From September 16-November 21, 2003 and again on July 27, 2007 and since February 15, 2009, there are more people muttering.

*On Halloween episodes of ''The Simpsons'', starting with "Treehouse of Horror IV", a woman screaming cowardly replaces the shush, and the logo theme is played on a synthesized pipe organ. Numerous other alternate versions of the theme have been used over the years (see "Variants" above). Earlier ToH installments lacked some parts of the audio (the very first one and "Halloween of Horror" use the standard theme, while the second and third ones have only the organ). On "Treehouse of Horror XXI" (2010), the woman's scream is replaced with a low-quality 8-bit sound file of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_scream Wilhelm scream].

*On many ''Simpsons'' episodes since Season 4, the logo is shown without the murmuring (as a result, the "Shhh!" sound effect plays right after the last note of the closing theme, which is heard at the start of the logo). With the show's cable debut on FXX on August 21, 2014 (when the ''Every Simpsons Ever'' marathon began), new syndication prints which are cropped (with some parts stretched) to fill the 16:9 screen now feature two credit cards for the Spanish Language audio track in between the copyright card and the Gracie Films logo, so now this is not seen on the new syndication prints. However, this is preserved on the DVD releases, older local syndication prints, and on [[Disney+ Originals|Disney+]] (4:3 option must be selected).

* On FXX airings of ''The Simpsons'' episode "Days of Future Future", this logo has the audio from the [[20th Television]] logo playing over this. This logo's audio was heard over the Spanish cast credits and the 20th Television logo was silent. This was likely caused by an editing goof.

*On the ''Family Guy'' episode "The Simpsons Guy", Peter Griffin (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) sings along with the theme with new lyrics; "And now, the show is over now!"
*''The Simpsons'' episode "Angry Dad: The Movie" uses an abridged version of the jingle, composed of the first four notes and the final note. There is also no "Shhh!" in this version due to Ricky Gervais' dialogue going over half of the logo. However, the logo is not interrupted on FXX's airing of this episode due to the SAP credits at the end.

*''The Simpsons'' season 27 episode "Treehouse of Horror XXVI" features a slightly abridged version of the Halloween organ music. Due to the standard scream being replaced with Homerzilla's roar, the music comes in halfway through the logo with the music finishing up over the 'In Association With' screen, so the last note, usually held down, plays for the same length as the normal piano tune.

* ''The Simpsons'' season 28 episode "Treehouse of Horror XXVII" (which, coincidentally, is the show's 600th episode) also uses the same abridged version from the previously mentioned episode - however, while the previous one used a long, loud roar which causes the music to come in late, the standard scream is played, but it comes in late (after the "shh!" gesture is made), resulting in the music playing late.

'''Visuals:''' Same concept as the previous logo; however, instead of a lighted movie theater, the background is pitch black. The audience (including the "Shhh!" lady), is on a teal outline. It continues like the first logo, with the projector casting the blue light with "{{font|Serif|GRACIE FILMS}}" appearing, but for a 3D effect, the text zooms in as it fades. The finished logo looks like the print logo. It then fades out.
