*** The other promo was for the video itself. This promo was narrated by legendary promo/advertisement narrator Brian Cummings, and at the end, he says "Brought to you by Nickelodeon and Paramount Home Video". At the beginning and end of the promo, the animated "Balloon" logo is used for Nickelodeon. The Rugrats videos that included this promo were ''A Rugrats Chanukah'', ''Bedtime Bash'', ''A Rugrats Thanksgiving'', ''Dr. Tommy Pickles'' and ''Diapered Duo''.

** The third promo was the second time that ''A Rugrats Vacation'' was advertised in a Rugrats video promo. Additionally, this promo introduced ''Dr. Tommy Pickles'' and ''Diapered Duo''. The promo was also narrated by Brian Cummings, and at the end, he says "Available from Paramount Home Video and Nickelodeon!". ''Mommy Mania'' was presumably the first overall video release from Paramount Home Video, let alone the first Rugrats video, to include this promo. ''Angelica Knows Best'', the Blockbuster-exclusive "Kidmongous" rental video ''Blue's Clues: Big, Blue And Just For You'' and the remastered VHS release of ''Good Burger'' also include this promo.

** The fourth promo dubbed the videos as ''Rugrats Videos''. The promo was narrated by Bill St. James and introduced ''Runaway Reptar''. The jingle for this promo was written and performed by the series' music composer Mark Mothersbaugh and is based on the song ''Whip It'' by the new wave band Devo, of which Mark Mothersbaugh was a member. The promo was preceded by the Nickelodeon "Slime" logo. Two versions of this promo were made.

*** The early version of this promo advertised that ''Runaway Reptar'' was coming soon. This version first appeared on the VHS release of ''The Rugrats Movie''. The early version's last appearance was supposed to be on the VHS release of ''Blue's Clues: Blue's Big Treasure Hunt'', alongside its Blockbuster-exclusive "Kidmongous" rental counterpart, ''Big, Blue And Just For You Volume 2''; however, this was not the case; for some reason, the early version was also on ''Runaway Reptar'', along with ''Make Room for Dil'', even though the latter was not released until after the former was. On this version, the Nickelodeon "Slime" logo appears again at the end.
