I always thought the opening credits of this show were great. :cool: I liked seeing all the exterior shots of San Fransisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. The theme music was great too and I always laugh everytime I see Henry falling off the sofa at the end of the credits. :lol:

Count me in!! I always like the first version of the theme song with the heavier bass.

I just saw them for the first time and I agree. I love it when shows have exterior shots in the opening credits.

I Loved The Opening Credits.

The theme music to this show is probably the greatest ever of ANY sitcom and definitely the greatest instrumental ever. As far as ALL TV shows goes it's right up there with Charlie's Angels and Dallas.

We need to seasons 3 and onward on DVD!

and the pictures they use of Lydia Cornell were great. :lol:

I have the theme song on my iPod!! I loved the opening visuals, too. Gotta love that big red house they lived in. :cool:

How could I forget about the best part of the opening credits? :eek: :lol:

^Count me in as well. :lol: They were both smokin'.

I liked the theme music as well. The exterior shots of San Fransisco and the Rush house with all of the clips were great to watch.

Lydia still looks pretty good for her age but DAMN Debbie has really aged and looks like grandma Rush now! :lol:

Not THE Grandma Rush (Audrey Meadows) but she looks like a grandma!

I watched it mainly for Nancy Dussault. She is a great comedienne but was underutilized on the show. I understand her and Ted did not get along too well on the show. The episodes that featured Nancy's singing was great. She got a powerful voice.

^ Nancy also did a great guest turn as a sassy hooker Wojo falls for in the first season Barney Miller episode, "The Courtesans". :cool: Getting back to the opening credits, here is the title card, complete with the big red house!! :cool:

Whatever gave you that idea??

I saw an interview with Nancy after Ted's death and she was practically in tears and spoke of him with great admiration.

She wouldn't likely do that if she didn't get along with him.

Yea I remember hearing her say nice things about him. I've heard that he could be difficult to work with though,. The cast of MTM has said this, The guy was still a comedic genius though.

It seems like Ted was a perfectionist to the extreme. I read an interview with Jm J. Bullock (or however he spells his name) that Ted always pushed the cast to do their absolute best. Not a bad thing per se, but now HE was the star and not a supporting player like he was on TMTMS. That may have led to a bit of friction on the set. But he had Emmys and the whole nine yards, so he certainly had the clout by that point.

Could also be a case of "he was a jerk, but he was OUR jerk".

I miss opening credit/theme song sequences. It gave you a sense of what the show was about and you knew who the actors were.

I curse the networks for chipping away the actual program times for more commercials, forcing TV show producers to eliminate these so they can squeeze a story into 20 minutes.

I haven't seen TCFC yet, I want to someday though, but I like the theme music. This being said however, I think that Keep It In The Family (English sitcom TCFC was based on for those not in the know) had even better theme music.
