Criminal Minds has got one of those unnamed, specially-made-for theme songs. Really, the only piece of information we can find about its theme song is that 87 episodes (2005-2009) of the show’s music is credited to Marc Fantini and Steffan Fantini. In this page is the photo of the two and some other guy. I [...]
A double shot at the Ikki Twins
“Seriously, who watches these shows?” …is what I would say if I were trying to pose as an uber intellectual, but, bottom line is, they’re entertaining.
The aptly chosen theme song, is aptly entitled “Ooh Uh Huh.” It is by the girl band Millionaires, who gained popularity from MySpace. Millionaires [...]
I have blogged about this, but, the theme song from House M.D. is such an important entity in the world of theme songs. It fits and suits the show very, very well, and is an integral part of its character; not to mention, the song rocks.
The theme song is “Teardrop” by Massive Attack, a British [...]
In this business, you just do what you gotta do, which is why in this post, I will keep my facts as straight as possible, even if I have no clue in this world what this show is about.
Apparently, Huntik is Huntik: Secrets & Seekers, an Italian animated series shown in The CW4Kids. Its theme [...]
So, we’re still in the Happy Days era, and this next show, apparently, is a spin-off of Happy Days. Surprisingly enough, composers Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel are once again associated with this show’s theme song. The theme song for Laverne & Shirley is entitled “Making Our Dreams Come True,” and it was performed by [...]
You’d probably be surprised to know that “Happy Days,” the song, was not always used for Happy Days, the show. In its first season, “Rock Around the Clock by Bill Haley & His Comets was used for the opening credits. However, also in season one, “Happy Days” was used as the closing theme—used was a [...]
God, I miss Conan.
Jimmy Fallon has got the coolest theme song in talk show history, because he has the coolest band, or so he says. But, it would definitely be hard to disagree with that.
The theme song for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon is a played-around-with version of The Roots’ “Here I Come.” (Note that [...]
“What would you do if I sang out of tune…” Ah, nostalgia. That song is called “With a Little Help from My Friends,” and it was composed by the greatest composers of all time—John Lennon & Paul McCartney.
However, the one used in The Wonder Years was a version by Joe Cocker, an English rock/blues singer [...]
The real deal
In Pushing Daisies, all original music (to 22 episodes) is credited to James “Jim” Dooley, an American composer who won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series in 2008 (yes, it was for Pushing Daisies).
There are a lot of orchestral/classical-like music in Pushing Daisies, and there has been some confusion [...]
Don’t you just love how Drew Carey and the gang put a lot of effort into making a sort of “production number” for their opening credits? In my opinion, that is what’s lacking in the television shows of today.
In its nine-season run, The Drew Carey Show had three opening theme songs—”Moon Over Parma,” “Five O’Clock [...]
