Also – The Crowman was his creator. You could almost feel that plasticine slithering over your body.
Shudder.
I suspect, based on the rhythms here, there’s an absolutely amazing funk version of this tune to be had. Indeed, Mocedades – the band who performed the song – came second in 1973. A child rendered blind for the duration was guided through a series of puzzles and activities while their life force was drained away overseen by adults dressed as dungeon keepers, elves and skeletons. If you’re taking this seriously, and are unable to change your mind in that respect, this could be a thorny issue. Anyway, this is the Monkey! However, it did have a theme tune that explained the basics of the show while sounding like the best Status Quo song never written. This is one of those themes that you don’t remember that you remember, but as soon as you hear it you find yourself saying ‘Oh yeah, this one.’. This is why so many journalists lie. But who could forget some of the most popular shows that made 80's TV so cool, like Miami Vice, The A-Team and MacGyver. The genius of this theme song is that it really makes you want to watch, if only to find out how exactly James has known fame, money and all that.
Let’s take a trip back down that very scary memory lane when sometimes the small screen could scare those Spangles right out of your mouth…. You know back in the day when the tv sat on the floor in a big wooden console.
Den of Geek Former Monty Python page, Rutle, and current Bonzo Dog DooDah Band leader Neil Innes also wrote a lot of children’s telly in the late Eighties and early Nineties. actually stands for ‘Mobile Armored Strike Kommand’ is a work of gordion-knot cutting genius. Harding wrote several theme tunes for Cosgrove Hall, but none of them managed to rhyme ‘Transylvania’ with ‘Hall of fame, yeah’, an achievement which would have been a career peak for lesser men. I have gone for this version of the theme because it contains all the elements you remember (the vocodered vocals and main melody) but also had additional Barry Gray style brass flourishes and an epic guitar solo surprisingly low in the mix. When is the autumn half-term break and could there be a UK lockdown then?
Here though, it was more like someone was playing an Erasure b-side underneath the exposition instead, and you’ve got to give them more than a little respect for that. If you haven’t seen Rude Dog And The Dweebs, it was a sort of prototype Entourage except with dogs instead of Jeremy Piven and better theme music. There are worse things it could be.
This one’s probably the most memorable though, and I’d have absolutely no problem with it being adopted as a national anthem. This is another show where I can remember the theme music more clearly than the actual episodes of this short lived spin-off of a sportswear company’s advertising mascot. Then we saw London’s Burning and it lost its allure somewhat. Now, this is obviously not a universal experience, but I don’t know a single person who actually remembers an episode of DuckTales. And be our Facebook chum here. So You Want to be Top? A fantasy game show hosted by the shape-shifting Argonds. See more ideas about 80s cartoons, 90s cartoons, Kids shows. It’s less cluttered than later versions, the individual tracks stand out more, and so the main melody (the one people remember if you ask them to hum the Knightmare theme) is more prominent. This update in colour from the 1971 version still had the creepy looking Peep-peep who was meant to be our would-be alien friend, but it also had the absolutely hideous Thin Man who was pursuing the boy and any human children who dared to help him. In the Eighties, there was a trend towards dramatic monologues underscored by equally dramatic synths. QED: Mike Harding should do the theme song for Spectre. Maybe it is.
The main problem with this theme – besides it sounding like it could have been writtten and sung by Trey Parker – is that it bigs up its heroes so much that it almost feels suplerfluous watching the show. No thought was given to the effect that these supposedly safe shows were having on young impressionable minds.
That time is Friday. He could be your mum and you wouldn’t know. John Lennon wrote Imagine.
I don’t feel like I need to explain this one. And also all of the other lines. Maybe they just played that to a CBBC producer in 1988 and got a series. That metaphorical duvet is below.
I wonder if Charlie Chalk would make it past a pitch meeting today, because it’s hard to summarise in a way that doesn’t make it sound like a fever dream.
From Bananaman to Grange Hill, join us in a spot of TV nostalgia as we celebrate 50 great 1980s kids' TV … Do you remember the Danger Mouse music? Set at Christmas – but howling wolves, a spooky train ride, dangerous vicars, grim Punch & Judy puppets and a mysterious artefact combined to turn this kids-own adventure into anything other than your traditional festive output.
A ramshackle paean to optimism and adventure. Tune in below to browse our collection of the best 1980s TV shows that aired during primetime television from 1980 to 1989. Of course you do. There was a more laissez faire attitude to children’s programming when we were growing up over 30 years ago. If anyone out there has the time and inclination to recut the Man Of Steel trailer with the Bananaman music, I suspect it might still work pretty well. However, these are based on the original books, before the whole thing became part of Nestlé, and the lesson here is that it’s deeply satisfying to constantly interrupt someone by repeatedly saying ‘Munch bunch’, a lesson I hope Matt Edwards will take on board during the next Den of Geek podcast. The most Simon and Garfunkel-sounding kids TV theme ever.
