Just saw that they don't include the Opening Credits on the DVD that was originally aired on NBC with the Mural in the background.
For example, the NBC ep I have from Oct 4, 1990 shows the entire cast dancing to the Hip Hop Theme with the mural including Denise and Martin. So season 7 was a WASTE OF MONEY, so pissed |

They used replacement opening credits instead of the one with the family dancing in front of Mural to a Heavy D Hip Hop Tune. The ep "Last Barbecue" didn't have the opening on the DVD that it had on NBC in October of 1990 |

What is the opening credits like on the DVD?
Was there a review of the season 7 DVD here on S.O.? |

If you read the DVD review it was explained why "The opening theme of this season is similar to season six (Apollo opening). We don’t get that rare theme (“Street Dreams”) that was used originally for the first 4 episodes probably because of what happened originally with the lawsuit. They eventually settled and that theme was finally used for season 8, minus Lisa Bonet and Joseph C. Phillips." |

Yeah it mentions in the review that it was CUT OUT. That opening was only used for the first 4 eps of season 7. I didn't know because I never read the review until rebafan1 on the FM board just revealed that the opening was cut |

No but I still like a complete season. And C&W could have included a small note about why they were missing and replaced. |

I think that's a minor issue.

That probably wouldn't have bothered me since they used the same theme as the rest of the episodes. What I don't like is when the DVDS completely change the theme song. That's one of the reasons I've never bought MWC.
