Even something as simple as a long haired player getting a short haircut, or someone going grey, would render that animation obsolete. I'd be surprised if all the darts players still looked like their cartoon versions when they dropped that version of the titles.
Those titles for Bullseye were introduced in 1986, and lasted until 1993 (just about), as the show was moved two ways from 1994: a) to Saturdays, and b) to the late spring/early summer. Previously the show ran September to March.
Of course out of date looks in opening titles wouldn't be a new thing, one show on the other side changed their opening titles in 1989 and were still using them 20 years later...
