That's a good one. I also liked Barney Miller. Of course, there was the tuba thing on the old Cannon show.

:roll: It's pretty sad when the Theme is about 1,000 times better than the show (with the theme not being that great.)


Oh yea, almost forgot Get Smart.

That Rockford Files synthesizer is kind of catchy.

I did some searching for a modern, authentic, wall-to-wall-sound remake of the Perry Mason theme (Park Avenue Beat). Nothing. Which is a shameful condemnation of the society in which we live. Truly disgusting. I mean, why is there even an America if you can't get a good remake of that tune? Somebody tell me there is one out there.
