This logo made a surprise appearance on Barney's Playground Fun, which was released on 2017.

HiT Entertainment

2007–2017

In April 2007, HiT Entertainment modified its logo to a "cube" variation of the main logo. The logo would now have the letters H and T in white, the I in blue being surrounded by red, yellow and blue squares which have round edges. The name was also now written as 'HiT Entertainment'. The logo didn't appear on DVD releases until May 2007. As of 2016, Mattel merged HiT Entertainment with Mattel's television arm, Mattel Television. This logo, along with the 2000–2008 logo is currently seen on Season's 7–12 reruns of Barney & Friends on Sprout (now Universal Kids), despite the show now being distributed by 9 Story Media Group.
