Rocky Road (TV series)

Portion used

The entire screenshot is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.

Low resolution?

The title card screenshot is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended, without being unnecessarily high resolution. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality and unsuitable for uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Purpose of use

The image is used in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the subject the image represents, to show the primary visual image associated with the subject, and to help the reader identify said subject. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work. It makes a significant contribution to the reader's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork.

Replaceable?

Because it is a screenshot of the title screen of a copyrighted television program, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
