30/3/12 RIP Earl Scrugs
Earl was cool. I remember he did cameo appearences as himself on the Beverly Hillbillys a few times

QotD: What was the best television theme song ever?
Beverly Hillbillies is up there
But at the moment I would go with my daughter's favourite show at the moment - Horrible Histories

Re: 30/3/12 RIP Earl Scrugs
Spliced!
On a tiny little island
In the ocean called Pacific
There's a mixed-up group of creatures
Who are really quite horrific
Stitched together with whatever crap was
Found or could be grabbed,
Re-invented in the bowels of a lab.
Spliced! They have all been spliced;
Half baked and diced
And regurgitated
By some crazy doctor (Spliced!)
Who went vamoose
And now you'll pay the price; They have all:
Bits of human, chunks of lab mouse
Swap the hind legs for an udder
Splice a parakeet with donkey feet
And season it with butter.
It's no ordinary island, do we have to say it twice,
It's no ordinary island 'cause they're spliced, spliced, spliced!

Courtship of Eddie's father would stick in my head all day. Just a fun little ditty. Although listing to it now, I would like to suggest that no priests walk around the Sunday school singing it.
But my all time fav has to be Gilligan's Island.

Re: 30/3/12 RIP Earl Scrugs
Heh! I have only the most vague memories of that show (you are obviously much older than me) and had no idea what the theme song was - but the second I clicked that link, it all came flooding back. I still don't remember the show, but I certainly remember the song. Good choice.Billy's Little Trip wrote:Courtship of Eddie's father would stick in my head all day.
The Gilligan one sucks though. I was more into:

I always thought that spider with the giant eyeball was awesome as a kid.
...after seeing it, still do.
It's like Archer music.

Reverend Horton Heat's cover of it is pretty bad-ass, too.

Speaking of giant eyeballs, I really dig the Mystery Science Theater 3000 music.

That is SO awesome! It just gave me an idea for a direction of a side thing that Dee, Paco and I are about to do. Thanks for the inspiration at just the right time, Rabz.Rabid Garfunkel wrote:Reverend Horton Heat's cover of it is pretty bad-ass, too.
