Viral themesongs

Some viral theme songs from when I was a kid that will be in my head all day are:

This shit never left my head.  I catch myself humming the theme song to this day:  videopipe.net/retro/15wwmqhwrb/themes/contact_729_mq_780.wmv

Three!  Two!  One!

I sat through all three seasons on DVD and hardly flinched once.  But I did cry and cry at how such a great show was fucked so hard.  Robert Culp (and the Bill Maxwell character) were perfect!  Perfect! 

That show desperately needs to return without the whining kid stuff, the fucking stupid ass Welcome Back Kotter students, and the fear of offending anyone.  It should be Maxwell -- even more insane and paranoid -- and Ralph, who's, like, an accountant or something (to really get the Maxwell hatred on the rise).

love American Hero and its themesong.  How easily could you find your DVDs, Nacho?

It's on the table.

Can't remember if I actually copied season two and three...

Meant to thank you before this.

Now if only I could stop dating women and playing Oblivion I'd watch and return it to you.

Ooh!  I'm so cool.  I have a date once a week!  No time to watch movies.

Ooh!  I'm so cool!  I play Oblivion 119 hours a week!  I have no time... Oh, well, yes.
