The theme song from the australian series PRISONER is always my favorite.
"On the inside the suuuunn still shiiiiines" I woke up sunday morning with no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
and the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert | |

With all these good old TV shows, why the hell does "TV Land" only play a handful several times a day? That's rediculous! They could play one episode per day and play a wide variety of shows. Andy is a four letter word. | |

When was the last time The Electric Company aired? Is it on DVD? I barely remember that show. There was a lot of mention of Morgan Freeman being on the show, and I kinda remember but not in detail.
Fave theme songs: (short list, whatever just pops in my head) Alice The Jeffersons Diff'rent Strokes One Day At a Time Angie Sanford & Son Rocky & Bullwinkle (Fractured Fairytales) Wacky Races The Andy Griffith Show (gives a run for my ability to whistle) Petticoat Junction School House Rock "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!
