Trivia:
The LaserDisc ones were used beginning in 1989, when iVideo began distributing them.
Starting in 1984, iVideo delivered a pamphlet titled A guide to the little clip-ons, where it explains what they mean. According to the pamphlet, Coming to/Now on means the title is for rent. The Hit Titles bumpers were used for extremely successful titles. This pamphlet was distributed until 2004 with every VHS and DVD.
Music/Sounds: A voiceover, along with the Bruton Music track "Seaspeed", or "Seaspeed 2" by Alan Hawkshaw.
