Am I the only person who thinks TOMA is a great funky 1970s theme?

Toma showed a funky, badass side of Mike Post and Pete Carpenter that only the early '70s could have made possible.

Considering his diet of roadside tacos, hot dogs, greasy burgers, and Mexican food, shouldn't it be considered a miracle that James Garner lived to be 86?

Considering his 40-year, 4-pack-a-day cigarette habit, exclusive steak-and-eggs-and Tequila diet, AND his exposure to Atom Bomb radiation, shouldn't it be considered a miracle that John Wayne lived to be 72?

Count me in as well! Toma, Cade's County, Starsky & Hutch(both versions), and even SWAT were innovative and enjoyable.

Thanks!

Both? Weren't there three different S&H themes? Lalo, Tom Scott, and Mark Snow? Whose theme did you choose to forget?

Didnt know about any 3rd theme.
Loved the end theme of the first series (Schifrin?), but when they changed it to the funky one...nah.

Well today you learn, Carsonsky!

Mark Snow's third-season theme:

Lalo had that great bass-and-drum thing going on when S&H go into the shity urban-blighted building.



That would have been in 1974-75..."It was just '74 and early '75...that's all there was."

DOH! Forgot that third-year theme. Tom Scott's version was my fave. I had lost interest in the show by the last season.

If you are stupid enough to ingest chloroquine phosphate (aquarium cleaner) instead of hydroxychloroquine (malaria treatment) for coronavirus, is it POTUS's fault if you get sick/die?

I'm violating the title of this thread by asking a serious question. Where is Justin B.? He usually posts every day. It has been a while since he posted. He lives in Florida, and I am worried about him. Hopefully, he is at least in e mail contact with some of you.

I dislike the Tom Scott theme, and despise it all the more ever since I watched the British version of Antiques Roadshow. There was an episode in which two women brought their S&H memorabilia for appraisal. The Antiques Roadshow employee asked them to sing the S&H theme and of course the two women enthusiastically burst into the Tom Scott theme.

So sad. I suppose since it was used in two of the show's four seasons and most likely in syndication, that's why it's the most remembered.

big grin

Even Lalo's main title was average.
It was the end title orchestration/version at 1.15 that was the killer.

Has everyone else lost count of all the self serving, "hero of their own story" posts over in the Tom Null thread?

Haha, yeah. Even when you try to read the real HIStory, parts of it are basically just HIS take on events.

Why was James Garner "unworthy" of The DiMucci Treatment?

In reading that thread, was anyone else led to believe that the Kritzerland dude and the book-writing dude are the center of the universe?
