(1986-1993)

Nicknames:  "L-T", "Fireworks", "Crashing Comets"

Logo:  Same as the COMETS logo, but "HOME VIDEO" pops out. Starting in 1991, a byline is seen below it.

Bylines:  Below the logo, we see:
 * 1991-1992 A TIME WARNER COMPANY
 * 1992-1993 A TIME WARNER ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY

Variants:


 * On laserdisc releases, the animation is bit of sped-up.
 * On videos that previews of Lorimar and Telepictures catalog from 1989 to 1993, the glowish streak would be cut out. The words "ALSO AVAILABLE FROM" above it. The announcer saying "Also available from Lorimar-Telepictures Home Video" over the music. Then, home video promos of "Perfect Strangers", "Full House", "SilverHawks", "ThunderCats", "The Hogan Family", "Eight is Enough", "Bad Ronald", "Max Headroom", "The Allied Artists Film Collection", "American Anthem", "S.O.B.", "The Waltons", "Falcon Crest", "Two Moon Junction", "Power", " Mama's Family", "Knots Landing", "Dallas" and "Helter Skelter" play after. An announcer saying "And now your Lorimar-Telepictures Home Video collection" over the previews at the end of "Perfect Strangers" and "Full House" previews. After the previews, list of titles scroll up on the same background but with "ALSO AVAILABLE FROM LORIMAR-Telepictures HOME VIDEO" under the previews. This was seen on the 1990 VHS of "Big Shots".

You can also see it on the first releases of "Full House" and "Family Matters". However, Columbia House VHS releases of "The Hogan Family" also used the logo. Laserdisc releases such as "Action Jackson", "The Hogan Family" and "SilverHawks" have the logo as well but the Lorimar Home Video warning follows that.

Often, this logo is very clean and professional.
