But...I have to put something here to keep my promise to myself....
I ditched cable a few years back. Between Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and various other apps and Roku channels I'm covered for most anything I actually want to keep up with. For all other times when I just need the TV on for background noise, I can usually pick up some over-the-air station that shows old programs.
One thing that really stands out about them is - they have theme songs. An actual minute or longer piece of music that plays during the opening credits. Nowadays, a short musical 'sting' is about all we get.
So this week, here's a couple of my favorite TV themes in no particular order courtesy of the fine users of YouTube:
The Wild Wild West
Sandford and Son
Kolchak: The Night Stalker
The Rockford Files
S.W.A.T.
Wonder Woman
The Six Million Dollar Man
Yes, I know there are a lot more great ones. Feel free to castigate me for the ones I missed and I can include them the next time I'm too beat to post anything (probably next week the way things are going).
