SA Footy

There's been plenty over the years that stick in the mind, and others we grew up with. Thought it worth starting a thread where people can paste either their favorite YouTube links of shows they loved, or recalled some of those that would get everyone gathered around the box.

the sad thing about these & others is you remember & KNOW them, just like when 5rph start of there 'tv listings show' at 9am they play a montage` of tv themes & i haven't been stuck trying to work one out yet

Love the Hawaii 5-0 theme.
And Bonanza!

I see "memorable" as being songs that you still remember every word to, even though you haven't seen the show in 20 odd years.

So whilst I remember the Kingswood Country song, because it had no words, I wouldn't call it "memorable"

Diff'rent Strokes
The Nanny
Shirls Neighbourhood was a classic!

I didn't watch this show a lot, but thought the intro music was great:

One of my favourites was the Family Ties song which has already been listed.

Another good one is FACTS OF LIFE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_GxXRbSFDg

FC, when saying memorable, I was thinking more of tunes or songs that you instantly recall or associate with the show.

Hard to go past this one, one of my absolute favorites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KtAgAMzaeg (Cheers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIRu8-5Nyek (Not a theme, but some Romper Room from the 1980's with, if my memory is correct, Miss Helena - including Bend And Stretch)

HA HA! Bend and Stretch! we were just talking about that this morning

I was singing the Punchball song

The Leyland Brothers and Good Times are two more that come to mind.

OH and of course.

Come and get it with Peter Russell Clark!

The tune to English Football's "The Big Replay" and the Drew Morphett hosted "The Winners" were always ones that stuck in my mind as a youngster (along with the Growing Pains and Family Ties songs )
