The days when TV theme songs had zero irony

[2timer]

Whatever happened to those days? I saw this video on YouTube and I just felt like America doesn't much have this anymore.

Yes, America just isn't the same without its iconic TV theme songs.

What ever happened to predictability? The milk man? The paperboy? And evening TV?

Then you wake up one day to find your wife is screwing the milkman, the paperboy has been selling weed to your teenage daughter and the studly Rock Hudson on McMillan & Wife is gay and dying of AIDS.

I don't recall that episode of Full House, but Mister, someone's in big trouble!

Movie. There were quite a few films made like this in the early-mid 70s.

Yeah I know about Blacksploitation, but the thread title stated TV themes so I just assumed.

It would still make for good family night TV.

Its a rare condition, this day and age, to read any good news on the newspaper page.

I just saw BN last night. I liked how they silenced curse words but the N-word was free to flow.

I like when the whole back story was explained in the song.

I mean, Fresh Prince would have been so confusing, since the world had never seen a "fish out of water" premise before. ( Green acers, Mork and Mindy, Alf, Bewitched, etc)

Yeah, the intro was veeeeeeeeeeeery long, with the Africans fighting and all. But it set it up nice. I'm going to watch the rest of the trilogy this weekend.
