Line 63:
*The long version has recently appeared on an airing of ''Hey There, It's Yogi Bear'' on the Australian TV channel "GO!" (now known as 9GO!) as well as a 2017 airing of ''Teahouse of the August Moon'' followed by the MGM "George the Lion" logo.
*The version with the planet on the right side and the green and white marquee was seen on a Taiwanese Video CD release of ''The Sea Wolf''.
*It can be seen at the end of all 5 episodes of ''Scooby-Doo
*It is known that the logo was present from the start on every 1995 "new modern remaster" of the series and feature films done by Turner before the broadcasters and home video staff made any edits to the prints. While the WarnerMedia-owned channels often plaster out the logo (especially on international airings), local channels not affiliated with Warner always keep the prints of the shows and films they air unaltered (besides needed censorship), so all the beginning and end logos are kept as is, including this one, which is why the logo was seen on 2000s overseas airings of shows including ''Droopy Master Detective'', ''Tom and Jerry Kids'', ''Yogi's Treasure Hunt'', ''The New Scooby-Doo Movies'', ''The Tom and Jerry Show'' (1975), ''The Tom and Jerry Comedy Show'' and ''Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo'' (both 1979 and 1980 versions) on CTC in Russia, ''The Addams Family'' (1992 animated series) on Nova TV in Bulgaria, some episodes of ''The Mask: The Animated Series'' on THT in Russia, ''Top Cat'' and ''The Scooby-Doo Show'' on TV Prima in Czechia, plus some syndicated airings of the pre-1986 MGM and pre-1948 WB libraries (like ''Kelly's Heroes'' on AMC, ''A Time to Sing'' on Circle and the TV series ''The Man from U.N.C.L.E.'' on GoodLife TV Network / YTA TV).
*While live-action television series from the Turner library would always have the long extended version of the logo, be it before the intro or after the end credits, there is one exception: the 1977-1983 MGM series ''CHiPs'' actually ends with the shortened variant of the logo.
*The short version was kept on the "Dexter's Laboratory: Season One" DVD release. Notably, ''Dexter's Laboratory'' is the only Cartoon Network original series to have this logo, as it was the only CN show released before the 1996 merger (excluding series like ''The Moxy Show'' or ''The What-a-Cartoon Show'').
*As stated before above, somehow the short variant in high-pitched audio ended up on ''The Flintstones'' episode "The Hatrocks and the Gruesomes" on recent Boomerang CEE airings from 2013 until 2018 (when the show left the schedule at that time). As the logo is always wiped out on modern overseas airings on the Warner-owned TV channels, it's obvious that it was kept on that episode unintentionally (plus it was the only episode on the channel to keep the full logo). Not only that, but post-2014 reruns of the ''Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'' episode "What a Night for a Knight" on the channel featured only a small nano-second frame of this logo after the [[Hanna-Barbera Cartoons#14th Logo (September 3, 1994-November 28, 1997)|1994 H-B All-Stars "Action" card]] before cutting to the promos and commercial break.
*The logo is kept on the Warner Archive Collection DVD release of the 1995 ''Dumb and Dumber'' animated series, as well as on Amazon and iTunes prints of the show. The same can be said for a few episodes of ''A Pup Named Scooby-Doo'', though most of them have the 1988 [[Worldvision Enterprises#3rd Logo (September 1988-May 26, 1999)|Worldvision Enterprises]] logo instead, preceded by the [[Hanna-Barbera Cartoons#8th Logo (September 6, 1986-1992; December 15, 1997; November 18, 1998-July 12, 2002)|CGI "Swirling Star" Hanna-Barbera logo]]. It is also kept on the Warner Archive Collection DVD release of ''Josie & The Pussycats in Outer Space'' and also on the DVD release of the 1993 special ''The Halloween Tree''.
*The short logo can still be seen on the Boomerang streaming service prints of ''The Flintstones'', most episodes of ''The Jetsons'', ''Top Cat'', ''Scooby's
*The short version was seen on Hulu and Netflix prints of the 1978 ''Godzilla'' series, preceded by the [[Hanna-Barbera Cartoons#6th Logo (September 7, 1974-April 7, 1979)|Hanna-Barbera
*This also used to occasionally appear on ''The Flintstones'' when aired on MeTV, until Warner Bros. restored the entire series in 2020 for HBO Max and the Blu-ray release and replaced any end logo with the
*The matted widescreen/green marquee version is only known to have appeared on the 1993 25th Anniversary VHS of ''2001: A Space Odyssey''.
*It was also spotted on Grit airings of ''The Treasure of Pancho Villa'' and ''Devil's Canyon''.

The Turner Entertainment Company (commonly referred to as "Turner Entertainment Co.") was established on August 4, 1986 by media mogul Ted Turner, initially being a media distribution subsidiary of Turner Broadcasting System to oversee its film and television libraries for domestic and worldwide distribution, after its ultra short-lived acquisition of MGM/UA Entertainment Co (now "Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc.", and "United Artists Corporation" respectively, which are now owned by MGM Holdings Inc.) Since Time Warner (later "WarnerMedia" and now "Warner Bros. Discovery") acquired Turner Broadcasting in 1996, it has served as an in-name only subsidiary and copyright holder of Warner Bros. Entertainment, Inc.
Nicknames: "The Blue/Green Globe", "The CGI Globe", "Planet Turner"
Logo: On a blue/violet gradient CGI starfield, a blue oblong marquee with gold trim with the word "Turner" in silver and fancy italic letters with the right arm of the "T" extended over the other letters, and the left arm curled moves in, close to the screen from the right. The camera turns left to follow it, and it approaches a green globe, like a planet or moon, positioned in the top left and lit from there and behind. As it approaches, it zooms out and turns its left side (the camera's right) in away from the camera, eventually settling in front of the globe as the camera movement stops.
Variants:
FX/SFX: The starfield, logo and globe, all decent mid-late 1980s CGI.
Music/Sounds:
Music/Sounds Variants:
Availability: Uncommon for both versions.
Editor's Note: A fantastic logo due to its CGI and fanfare.
Logo: Just a still of the Turner logo on a white background, which is positioned center-left. There are segmented lines behind the logo.
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: A snippet of the Droopy Cartoon "Drag-A-Long Droopy", which is an echoed gunshot after Droopy says the line "Exciting. Isn't it?".
Availability: It's seen only in the documentary Tex Avery: King of Cartoons.
Editor's Note: It's probably a placeholder.
Nicknames: "Filmstrip Star", "Turner Star"
Logo: This has two distinct versions:
Variants:
FX/SFX: Just the fading. For the alternate The Making of a Legend: Gone with the Wind variant, there is also the star moving on the screen and zooming out. None for the Tom and Jerry Kids in-credit logo.
Music/Sounds:
Availability: Turner used this logo mainly as a print logo during this era, and any onscreen appearance of this logo is quite rare.
Editor's Note: None.
