MGM Home Entertainment

==1980-1982: MGM/CBS Home Video==
===1980-1981===
In 1980, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer joined forces with CBS Video Enterprises, and for less than two years, the company's name was known as MGM/CBS Home Video. These were their first logos.
===1981-1982===
These logos were short-lived like their 1980 counterparts, though by about half a year longer.

==1982-1999: MGM/UA Home Video==
===1982-1993===
In 1982, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer merged with United Artists, and CBS was no longer partnered with MGM (it moved to 20th Century Fox Film Corporation). The two companies (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and United Artists) were formed to make MGM/UA Home Video.
The logo appears on the 1985, 1989 and 1991 VHS prints of The Wizard of Oz (1939) and on VHS releases of early films with the 1987 MGM logo (the one with the "An MGM/UA Communications Company" byline).
Starting in late 1989, a preceding logo appeared at the very beginning and end of VHS tapes of MGM installments. The logo contained a copyright stamp, which included the year of when the VHS tape was released. This preceding logo lasted until 2005. Also, beginning in 1999, in North America, pre-1960 Metro-Goldwyn Mayer Home Video titles were distributed by Warner Home Video.
The fanfare music for this logo actually debuted on the 1981 CBS Video logo.
