Line 73:
*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, Where are You!'' on the DVD release "Original Mysteries", preceded by the "Action" variant of the 1994 Hanna-Barbera logo. Also, it was seen at the end of every episode on both the VHS and DVD releases of the "Cartoon Crack-Ups" set.
*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'', ''The Scooby-Doo Show'', ''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, ''The Richie Rich Show'' (1980) on Planet Çocuk in Turkey, some episodes of ''The Mask: The Animated Series'' on THT in Russia, ''The Flintstones'', ''Top Cat'' and ''The Scooby-Doo Show'' on TV Prima in Czechia, ''Yogi's Treasure Hunt'', ''The Scooby-Doo Show'', ''The Flintstones'' and ''Paddington Bear'' (
*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'').

The Turner Entertainment Company (commonly referred to as "Turner Entertainment Co.") was established on August 4, 1986 by 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 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.

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.
