2010 This show has had less than stellar reviews, but I do find her (Jillian Michaels) strangely appealing. Anyway, Losing It with Jillian is Jillian Michaels’ new reality fitness show—after she left The Biggest Loser. I got the idea to post about its theme after browsing through NBC.com and doing some investigation. It turns out [...]

2010 I read from somewhere that this show has already been canceled. Anyone? Why so fast when it’s a J.J. Abrams creation. Anyway, it has quite a catchy, albeit short intro tune. Since there’s only one composer credited for all episodes (that have been shown, at least), it only makes sense that he created the [...]

1984–1987 This primarily is for the original animated series, because truthfully, music from the motion picture(s) was kind of unorganized. For example, its soundtrack had a lot of songs that weren’t even in the film—typical big flick style, a la Spider Man—and did not give due credit to the film scorers. Anyway, enough about that. [...]

1984 Back to regular programming. This post is for the 1984 film, the one that started it all, but I guess it also applies to the 1980s cartoon series The Real Ghostbusters. So anyway, that Ghost Busters (or “Ghostbusters”) theme is such a big hit, right? It is (also) simply called “Ghostbusters”. It was written [...]

2004 So I’m trying to stick to a Christmas theme here, and since I’m not really much of a Christmas film buff, I’ll stick to those which I actually know. Up next is music from The Polar Express—that Tom Hanks film. If The Polar Express were to have a theme song, it would be that [...]

1987 A while ago we were feeling blast-from-the-past-y which reminded us of Dino-Riders. Now we are feeling both blast-from-the-past-y and dinosaur-y! So the next logical theme song to post about then is Dinosaucers! Dinosaucers is another DIC Entertainment productions, which means its music can only have been created by Shuki Levy and Haim Saban—click to [...]

1988 I’m feeling kind of blast-from-the-past-y so let’s start going through some animated shows that would remind us of our childhood. Dino-Riders was definitely a personal favorite of mine because it had cool toys. I had this big-a$$ Brontosaurus back then—of course learning about dinosaurs and their genera did not hurt. The theme song from [...]

2002–2006 Now for some reason, we have an Everwood boxed set lying somewhere around the house. It’s my sister’s but I never really dared to start watching it, let alone touch it. However, I know this show and I have seen a couple of episodes from back then. It had this really mellow theme song [...]

1985 Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors was an animated television series produced by DIC Entertainment, and I believe was shown in (in the U.S.) Nickelodeon and the USA Network. It had one of those opening sequences that started with a narration and transitioned to the opening theme song. Its theme song was composed by now [...]
