Tom Poje Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 well, its time to embaress yourself and show your age or tv viewing habits by identifying the following shows based on a line from their opening theme song. Hey, I waited until Friday so I wouldn't 'mess up' anyone's week. ha. ok, ok. even I knew and watched a bunch of these. good luck. #1: "Darlin', I love you but" #2: "So go ahead, enjoy the view" #3: "Enjoying each other's joys" #4: "California is the place you wanna be!" #5: "If you find some girl to love" #6: "We've finally got a piece of the pie!" #7: "Songs that made the Hit Parade" #8: "And suddenly make it all seem worthwhile" #9: "And oh what heights we'll hit" #10: "And those with too ready a trigger" #11: "They're altogether ooky" #12: "Lots of curves, you bet!" #13: "It sure isn't you!" #14: "She may be pint sized" #15: "Keep smilin' until then" #16: "When the country was fallin' apart, Betsy Ross got it all sewed up!" #17: "Daughter Judy" #18: "Let's ride with the family down the street" #19: "A hot dog makes her lose control!" #20: "Brave, courageous and bold" #21: "Tossed salads and scrambled eggs" #22: "The youngest one in curls" #23: "Tale of a fateful trip" #24: "Watch out for that tree!" #25: "Unless of course" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Poje Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 I only watched 'C' a few times, but there was I guy I worked with way back when (pre-Pension days). he had gone out to Universal Studios, and was picked the day he was out there to 'demonstrate' how they made someone 'fly in the air'. nasty tune. once it gets in your head it goes on and on and on. (By the way, I am hoping there are enough 'pathetic' TVland people for my ASPPA talk in July that remember Get Smart.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
