I can't believe the Cartwrights sang sooo badly in this!!

[tlb]

Mostly stuff nobody has ever heard of outside of television trivia geeks.

Bonanza song used one time only and then swept under the carpet with new lyrics written as the Cartwrights become bland and wimpy.

Life is the best when you’re living in the West, BONANZA!
If somebody messed with anyone of us
Somebody messed with me!

I remember it. It hurts.

[NMEwithin]

I always liked the theme song for “Branded”

[MozarkDawg]

You don’t s’pose this is why the gals always died a’fore the boys could git hitched, do ya?

“Stranded! Stranded on a toilet bowl. What do you do when you’re Stranded, and there’s nothing on the roll?”

Branded? What do you get when your branded?

[RGSpincich]

Thanks. Seems they veered into a more sophisticated universe as the show developed.

[LoveUSA]

OOOOOPS!

Branded! What do you do when you're branded?

[Buck W.]

I think I was the only person who actually liked “Nichols”.

damn Hoss was big somebeach on that horse...

what a glorious time it was to grow up then...nowadays it just plain sux

Lorne Greene could actually sing fairly well

[cyclotic]

The lyrics for the Andy Griffith Show are pretty good.

“I’m gonna take down my fishin pole and go off to the fishin hole...”

Somewhere on line is a audio file of Andy Griffith singing it.

[Fresh Wind]

The Rawhide theme was very cool.

[Tainan]

I still find myself whistling the theme to My Three Sons and remembering that sneaker hanging over the edge of the curb.

[paulycy]

The Johnny Quest theme was awesome! Not a song though, just instrumental.

[antiRepublicrat]

That was fun.
