The Good Ol' Days

Friends and I were talking about how when we grew up, a lot of our favorite shows explained their plots through a (goofy) theme song, like The A-Team, The Incredible Hulk and The Greatest American Hero (though the song doesn't tell you he doesn't know how to use his suit, the pictures do).

It's probably not a coincidence that my favorite sitcom is My Name is Earl (I can't find the intro video or music anywhere).

Hmm, TV theme songs that explain the show. Sounds like a trivia category to me...

DM,

I really wish we didn't think of this - I'm been singing the Greatest American Hero theme to myself all day.

They shjould do a movie version of that show - i'd totally see it - Michael Bay? Are you reading this?
