Wow... I was just thinking of posting that topic this morning! Great minds think alike, and so do ours!

I love them all so much... how to choose just one? The "follow Along" quality of Gilligan and the Brady's make them really high on the list, but the creative tallent behind Simpsons and Married With Children make them indespensible! I mean, how can you NOT love a theme song sung by Frank Sinatra or composed by Danny Elfman?

Hmmmmmmm...

I'm going to go way out on a completely oposite limb and say that my favorite theme song is "Cleavland Rocks" fro The Drew Carey Show. Performed by The Presidents of the United States, it really gets the old blood pumping. It really sets the mood for the show as well.

Wow that's funny silentbri! I actually got the idea from you. Hope ya don't mind me stealing it. hehehe. I think mine is...hmmm...(this isn't a sitcom but for best cartoons starting I would say Digimon...really catchy) The brady bunch starting is good just I hate the show. Gilligan is also cool. Oh I know! Home Improvement! Wait....Dumb song...cool stuff...The only reason I liked that is because every other starting I can watch like twice and I get sick of it. That one I never did! Okay I guess I like Gilligans theme song the best.

It's an homage' to my idol Kevin Smith. The man is not unlike a god to me! Allthough I dazzle you every day with my Television knowledge and insights, Comics are my first love. Mr. Smith proved that an overweight comic-geek can make a name for himself in this world, and I admire him for it.Kevin plays the character of "Silent Bob" in all of his movies, so I've adapted the character name to reflect my name. I started using the alias right after I first saw the movie "Clerks", and have used it religiously ever since.

Okay, your turn... What is the meaning of "The T"?

That's interesting! Okay the reason I call myslef "THe T" is because my nickname is T (my real name starts with a T I just won't tell for safety purposes) and I wanted my name to be just T on this message board but the name has to be 4 letters or longer so I figured -the fonz-the t! Get it?

Nope... sorry! The only clue you get is Chico and the Man. It was a sit com that was in the top 10 the year I was born. It starred Freddie Prinz (father of the current teenage heart throb, Freddie Prinz Jr.)

I beleive the show was cancelled after only one season becuase Freddie Prinz committed suicide.

Other shows from the year I was born include Planet of the Apes, Paper Moon, and Rhoda.

Oh, HELL no. Come on... you can do a simple net-search for Chico and the Man, can't you? 32 is the WRONG answer. Sorry!
