Simple rules... give a line from a TV theme song, and the next person must give the name of the show. This entitles him or her to provide the next line. I'll start:

"Our Patty's only seen the sights a girl can see from Brooklyn Heights"
The Patty Duke Show

"There's a scout troop short a child, Khruschev's due at Idlewild"

Car 54, where are you?

"...A hero who sneezed abruptly siezed retreat and reversed it to victory..."
Car 54, Where Are You (had to look it up, as I don't know the song, though)...

Easy one: Believe it or not, I'm walking on air...

(maybe) harder one: ...That suicide is painless, it brings on many changes, and I can take or leave it if I please.
"...A hero who sneezed abruptly siezed retreate and reversed it to victory..."
F-Troop

...That suicide is painless, it brings on many changes, and I can take or leave it if I please.
M*A*S*H (technically only used in the film with lyrics)

"People yackity yak a streak and waste your time of day"

Both easy:

Banana Splits

With a gun and a rope and a hat full of hope, planted a family tree. We got hold of a pot of gold,...(title word deleted)
...I think I know the lyrics in question, but did they ever air? I always think of that theme being instrumental.
Great minds... That's not fair. That song was an instrumental on the series, "Bonanza" ;)

This one's way too easy:

How will you make it on your own?
Who can take a nothing day, and suddenly make it all seem worthwhile?
Mary Tyler Moore Show :)


how about this one.

while he wanders his starry see, remember remember me
I don't think that one ever aired with lyrics either ;)
I don't recognize those lyrics from the Banana Splits.

I only recall bits and pieces but it was something like - "One banana, two banana, three banana, four, > forget the exact next part< The banana Split Show. Over hills and valleys the banana buggies go, > forget the next part too < La la la la luh la la, la la la la luh la la
Wow, do you need to be old(er) to participate in this thread? :lol: I don't know any of these to save my life!

Let me try this:

In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.

Stuart's right, that one never aired with the lyrics, but the answer is "Star Trek"

Soooooo, How's about:

"Baby, if you every wondered,
Wondered whatever happened to me.
I'm livin' on the air in................"

It struck their tiny raft.
And plunged them down a thousand feet below."
