According to a comment on that YouTube video "Columbia TriStar Central Productions was a joint venture between Columbia TriStar Television (created by the merger of Columbia Pictures Television and TriStar Television) and Central Independent Television" and its a relatively rare endcap which apparently only appears on about three programmes, one of which is the later series of The Upper Hand.
TUH was a remake of Who's The Boss which was (by the time Central picked it up) being made by Columbia Pictures Television, though I believe its now fallen under Sony.
Re the other endcaps - definitely seen more than three, but that was more of a standard. Depended on the source of the programme. IIRC it was different for an imported programme (that they presented) rather than they made.
Yeah, Columbia Tristar has been owned by Sony since 1989.
