That 'TV Land' sounder. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hi all!

My favorite episode is when Rob thinks he's seeing a UFO out his window...and it turns out to be just a toy flying saucer!

Well, the sound this thing makes is 'Ooney Oomphs'. In fact...that's how the Mrs and I refer to the show! We just say that 'Ooney Oomphs' is on!

Anyway...during 'TV Land's' show promos, there's a little 3 note sounder they play just at the end that sounds strangely like the 'Ooney Oomphs' from the episode!

I looked to see if this had been addressed, and couldn't find it.

Has anyone else noticed this...or am I just obsessed!

Well, I got my answer from the folks at TV Land! They say it's "just a coincidence".

pontoon,
Evidently, the phrase is "Uhny Uftz." At least, that's the title of that episode.
