Line 70:
*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 All-Star Laff-a-Lympics'', ''Yogi's Galaxy Goof-Ups'', ''Yogi's First Christmas'' (1980), some episodes of ''Johnny Quest'' and a few episodes of ''Tom and Jerry Kids'' among others. Tubi prints of ''The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries'' kept it, as they use older prints (conversely, the HBO Max prints are restored and therefore lack the logo), as does ''The Halloween Tree'' on the same service.
*The short logo can be seen at the end of the ''Yogi Bear'' episode "Bear on a Picnic" on HBO Max, as part of a combo with the 11th Warner Bros. Television logo.
*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 1978 version of the 1974 "Rainbow H-B" (small variant)]] and the 1994 All-Stars "Action" logos.

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.
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?".

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.
