"Welcome Back, Kotter" and "WKRP in Cincinnati" are the ones I used to sing to the most.

The Vega$ opening music on our black and white bedroom tv was my cue to pretend I was asleep.


I think that I was 12 when my dad gave me enough birthday money to hit Walgreens for a sweet 12" black and white Sampo tv.

That might have been the model we had. We got it at Walgreen's or Ford City. At one point, it only worked if you held the cord a certain way, and so I had to watch the All-Star game one year standing and holding the cord in a V-shape.

It's not one of my favorites, but I think most people know the Brady Bunch song too

I am also biased, but my favorite theme music is that of The Virginian. It's actually really good.


Why are you biased big time teacher? You didn't write or perform the song.

I actually sort of did (depending on how you define "did").

I mean, though, cuz I like the show, despite it's almost complete lack of skin.

Also: Them Channel 44 cartoons had good themes

The bucolic going to school scenes during the opening credits of Room 222 while the theme played has always been a favorite of mine . Plus , Karen Valentine !

I know we've talked about this before but Mrs. Kotter stirred some feelings in me as a small child. A warning sign of things to come, I'm sure.

Do network shows today even have theme songs?

If you remember the Boers & Bernstein where they just played TV theme songs, Dan said "why is that guy doing a bad impersonation of Leon Redbone?" about Leon Redbone.

We could've stopped after Don Tiny mentioned The Jeffersons.

Charles being in charge of our days and nights is understandable, but putting him in charge of our wrongs and rights really feels like an undue burden.

Especially with what we know about Scott Baio.

Isn't Buddy from that show some sort of sex offender? Or maybe a born again christian?

The Jefferson's closing theme is cooler than the opening theme.

Never made it to the closing theme, the homework panic usually set in by then.

Honorable instrumental mention for The Adventures of Brisco County Jr., whose theme got repurposed into the NBC Olympic theme song.

As a yout I got lucky and had several teachers who looked like Mrs. Kotter.

And I wanted an excuse to repost the picture of Lynda Carter.

Mrs. Kotter was pretty hot in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. Never really saw it, but I remember her being hot in the commercials.
