I recently saw a discussion about the best TV themes. Here’s my nomination: Hawaii Five-O 1968 – 1980 Opening and Closing Theme
Bonus: Here are the Ventures and Max Weinberg playing the same song 30 years later.
A recurring theme here is for you to share your best news tips!

For a few moments in 1970 we thought we were the funniest kids alive when my neighbors and I would talk about when the girl from “Here Comes the 70″s” would walk out of the water at the end of the show…

and she never did, not once.
Remember that well! thank you.
Here’s a short list:

Rockford Files followed by Sanford and Son.
Hawaii Five-Oh definitely up there with them
Takes me back, for sure. Seems strange that Jack Lord’s co-stars didn’t get listed during the opening theme, only in the closing credits.
In later episodes, they did. I think that clip was specifically the pilot’s opening, and I think the theme was longer than the regular series run.
Bit by bit, village by village…

hmmph. the Ukes musta run out of drones. some of the videos these things send back whilst zeroing in on the targets. then the screen goes blank.
YouTube doesn’t like Russian gut splatter as much as I do.
Great. If they manage to keep the momentum, they will only need about 80 years and about 8000000 (eight million) more Russian dead to finish Ukraine off. Is this what you referred to as “coming with vengeance” here?
I’m pretty sure you and your intellectual equals are unaware (given your affinity for The Gateway Fvckwit and similar “sources”) but in the past year, Russia increased the share of Ukrainian land it occupies by less than 1%.
Less. Than. One. Percent. In the course of a Year Of War. And that included the “Russian summer offensive”, which you touted here. I hope it at least gives you a glimpse of how stupid your kind look to anybody who can see things from the objective perspective.
What are you talking about?? All I have read is how Ukraine is winning the war! Constantly. It’s always the same old story … the kill ratio is 10-1. 10 dead Russians to 1 dead Ukrainian. At that rate… Ukraine should have been invading Moscow 2-years ago.
The very first war of LIES from the West. Constant Lies.
Kenji, are you a parrot who was taught the use of a keyboard? It had just occurred to me that most of posts your fit amazingly well as a transcription of parrot chatter.
Russia occupies less land than they did 3 years ago and they have suffered a million casualties it do it. Quite the warriors.
Which doesn’t stop the local fauna from predicting that the world will soon be divided between Russia, China and the USA with Russia dominating “Europe and some parts of Asia”. Too bad they never eplain what Russia is going to “dominate” with. Perhaps they’ll just make a lot of dominoes?
Ukraine has already been defeated because it’s not getting back any of the conquered territory.
And Russia is just mopping up around the edges of that territory, while showing NATO and the Euro pussies who’s boss by inflicting damage on the Ukrainian hinterland.
I understand that it’s how you twist the reality with your feeble mind, but it’s pretty easy to point out facts that expose you for an idiot you are.
I can start with pointing out that Russia claims a lot more land from Ukraine than it actually conquered, more specifically it claims the entire Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzha regions. And considering that the Russians haven’t captured a single large city since they captured Mauriupol in 2022 (and that was the only one they managed to capture and hold) since the full-scale invasion started, they’ve been doing “mopping up” for about 3 years now, i. e. for much longer than they were doing anything else, which makes your claim obviously absurd.
Sure, whatever turns your crank.
I believe his crank is turned by axis powers…

What are you talking about? Lots more pedestrians are killed each day by American citizens. You racist. Me ACLU. Me NGO. You cling to bible and guns. Obama sez so.
At least they’ll be kicked out of the country before they kill anyone else. Not every place is as fortunate as the US in that regard.

Great … next … a gay Cracker Barrel pop-up in one of the vacant abandoned San Francisco retail storefronts. Yes … Daniel Lurie is SAVING San Francisco … one pop-up at a time. Jeeeeze.
I’m sure there’s a gay cracker pun in there somewhere.

The Magnum P.I. theme is among the best for sure. Created by the same guys who did the aforementioned Rockford Files theme, and The A-Team theme, all good stuff.
Absolutely the best one.

frightening. and exactly why how many times l point out Donald Trump is ALREADY quite wealthy and as such far far less likely to be tempted by the position.

That’s just disgusting. Now do Chelsea Clinton’s $1 MILLION annual salary.

Yep, “Suicide is Painless”
(Theme from M*A*S*H)
Could be an anthem.
Imagine dofting caps and singing that before a hockey game.
Best theme tune has to be The Persuaders, but the 1960s as a whole had some brilliant theme tunes.
Secret Agent Man … Johnny Rivers. He can make that guitar sing … and I just love his down home, good ol boy voice.

The Ninth Circus is a joke. I read somewhere that more of their decisions get overturned than any other court in the country.

In a related story … my local Home Depot is being robbed blind by illegal invaders and homegrown … well … blacks. So much so that I now drive further to a different Home Depot that isn’t surrounded by hundreds of illegal criminals. Yeah, Home DEPOT has a problem. A big problem.
