MTM Home Entertainment/Warning Screens

Uniquely, Argosy and MTM have never mentioned the FBI in any of their home video warning screens.

On a black background, we see the text “Warning” in a red Optima Bold font, with the warning text below in white Times New Roman font.

On a dark teal background, we see the text “WARNING” in a white all-caps serif font, with the warning text below in all-caps and the same font.
