[blogslut]

4. Awww

That's sweet.

[Demo_Chris]

13. Okay, that's pretty cool. nt

[Taverner]

2. Sorry, that would be this:

[blogslut]

3. Definitely in the top ten...

Right up there with the theme to Rawhide:

But, my opinion stands.

[OriginalGeek]

31. It's probably my lack of musical education

but that opening bass line defines cool for me.

[Jenoch]

39. I'm late to this thread

and I was going to say Barney Miller as well. We used to play this song in high school band.

[progressoid]

5. LOVE IT!

I didn't know about the Pierre Henry connection. That's an awesome song too.

[blogslut]

6. I'm so sad

Series finale episode was tonight. I'm w/out cable so I'm gonna have to watch the last season some other way.

The Nerdist YouTube channel hosted a live stream panel with Groening and series writers and stars tonight. The best part was when they broke for the airing of the last episode, they played Hypnotoad.

[progressoid]

8. I just saw it.

I won't give anything away.

But I would like to find that Nerdist broadcast. Are they going to re-air it?

I confess, I loved the hell outta that show.

[charlie and algernon]

12. That was one of the earliest shows I remember watching all the time

Hell, all of the TGIF shows I watched religiously: Perfect Strangers, Family Matters, Step by Step, Full House, Dinosaurs. Some great shows back in the late 80s-early 90s.

And one obscure one that, as a kid, I thought was very cool and secksy:

[Jenoch]

46. We played the theme from Peter Gunn in high school band too.

Our band instructor was an old guy by the time I was in high school (he was my big sister's band instructor 13 years earlier too) but he was cool.

He used to take popular songs and write the music for every instrument in our band, right down to the oboes. We played his versions of Smoke on the Water and Sir Duke as well.

[AsahinaKimi]

[blogslut]

20. But then again, there's this

And, this:

21. I loved both, but especially the Bionic Woman!

Half the time the only way I would watch the Six Million Dollar Man was if she was a guest star.

[blogslut]

As lovely as she ever was.

[Demo_Chris]
