Subject: This is extremely important
TV Guide On-line has a feature about TV theme songs, with a vote for your favorite them song at the end.
http://www.tvguide.com/magazine/issues/021028/magftr.asp
I have heard tell that some people on this board have watched this television thing at times, and so wuuld probably have a good handle on which theme is best.
The winning themes will be used as the music for next year's musical.
(Not necessarily at KRF and not necessarily written by me or performed by anyone I know, but I'm sure that someone, somewhere will make a musical out of this).
Why am I trying to justify you guys wating time on the net?
Just go.
Go-o-o-o-o-o!
Queen Lavinia of Greymarsh,
channelling through Frank

AArgh! They left out the theme to 'Jack of All Trades', one of the greatest themes of all time!;)

Personally, I’ve always considered shows like “Pufnstuf”, “Sigmund and the Sea Monsters”, and most notoriously “Lidsville” as proof positive that Sid & Marty Kroft were sick, twisted sadists who utterly *hated* children…

LeGarde,
Sesame Street *was* there, silly. But my vote went for The Muppet Show.

OK,
So they managed to get 5-O and Hillstreet Blues on the list, but they left out the best theme music of all time, they left out SWAT.
Luckily they covered this faux paux by including the almost best theme song of all time Batman.
The tally of votes indicates that mainly women and men that are in touch with their feelings gave voted so far, since Cheers and Friends are leading the race, ewwwwww.

At the PA Ren Faire that just ended last week, they did something similar. They didn't build an entire scenario around a theme song but they took the song "Akuna Matata" from the movie "The Lion King", changed the lyrics and made a song about Sir Francis Drake. And one of the bands that performed there changed the lyrics of "Don't Worry Be Happy" and gave it an Elizabethan sound, which created "Worry Not Happy Be". It was so neat to see people clapping along to familiar music and laughing at the changed lyrics. I think it's a great idea.

Re: This is extremely important -- MMario, 08:23:08 10/29/02 Tue
thinking along the same lines - that is why 'gilligan's Island" got my vote - though it was a hard choice between that and 'Beverly Hillbillies'
Those two tunes have been parodied so many time they probably already should rate as "folk music"

I haven't looked, but what about the Rockford Files? That was a great song. And don't forget the Dukes of Hazzard. Hmm, what else from the 'good ole days'... Sanford and Son? WKRP? M.A.S.H? the Odd Couple? Quincy? and for really funky music, there was In Search Of, hosted by Leonard Nimoy. And of course, NOTHING rocked more than the theme to Magnum P.I. Wow! Where has all the good TV gone?

I can't believe that they didn't put up Issac Hayes' best piece of music...Theme from "Shaft"...now, that's a classic piece.
I can hear it now..."They say that King Richard is a bad mother..SHUT YO' MOUTH...But I'm talking about Dick..."
That would be so wrong, but yet, so funny....

I just noticed that they didn't include the theme to Bonanza, which is great to bounce a baby on your knee to.
Sorry, to which to bounce a baby on your knee.
However, it is very tiring to make love to.
Sorry, to which to make love.
The Dick Van Dyke theme, on the other hand, is an excellent rhythm-keeper.
Which TV theme do YOU feel is the best to which to make love?
Sorry, to which...oh, I did it right the first time.
Anyway,
Which theme gives the best motion to the ocean?
This thread could get very long
And very weird

HEY!!! What about the theme to Knight Rider? Now there's a theme song that encapsulates what the 80's were all about. Except for hot babes.. NO wait that was Bonnie.
Flashy cars... Well, there was that Pontiac that talked.
2dimensional main characters... But hey, it was the 80's.
2dimensional villains... The greatest reference guide for all game masters (note the spelling, most important if you were at Dragonclaw this past weekend)
Sex... See reference to Hot babe above.
Drugs...What the writers were on while writing the script.
That's just my opinion and the opinion of many people who I'm paying to have the same opinion as my own.
