1960s TV was Great. Thanks for the Memories.

This compilation stirs fond memories of growing up during this time. It was great to be a kid then. It wasn't all sunshine and lollipops but as the years fade my experiences I recall are the good ones. Thank you Fred for your time and effort you put into creating this for your fellow boomers or younger folks that want to see what these times were like.😊

It's my pleasure, jbaker.

Oh Fred, you had the tears flowing right off the bat (pun intended). This Week in Baseball was a major part of my youth, loving baseball as I did. I found that music in the KPM library, some years back. Tears subsided and a smile came as I watched, only for tears to come back near the end, with Wonder Woman, Spider-Man and Superman to finish it off. So many great memories, when television was worth watching. Thanks Fred.

Sweet comment, Doug.

Just finished watching and an awesome effort as usual, Fred.

I loved This Week In Baseball!

...I grew up in the 50s & 60s and this is part of the soundtrack of my yout'...

At 12:23 is the 1st closing theme from "Dragnet" which we were familiar with on the end credits in seasons 1 and 2, when we were living in Indiana watching Jack Webb and Harry Morgan in their series roles for the revival series four season run.

This is awesome. I can't wait to watch the others.

Memsy was soooooooo freaking cuuuuuuuuuuute! that little meow she did after all the shows she got featured on, just so adorable I can’t.

This Week In Baseball Best sports music ever!

You’ve hit another Grand Slam Fred!!! Thank you!! The Adventures of Superman was a perfect ending!! And… 12:39 - Kent McWhirter changed his name to Kent McCord, aka Officer Jim Reed, of Adam-12 fame!!! 👮‍♀️🚓🚔

Funny that you described his work as "hitting them out of the park," since his first closing theme was "This Week in Baseball."

0:11 Gathering Crowds was the ABC Evening News theme for a short time. The opening theme, Jet Set, was also used on the NBC game show Jackpot.

We're in a good one because we start off with old school TWIB!!! Good to see that one again Fred. Eagerly awaiting volume 4. I always liked the Jack Davis artwork on the F Troop second season closing credits. On the Love American Style closing credits, the group credited as The Charles Fox Singers is actually the same one who sang on all the recordings by The Partridge Family. Re the Spider Man credits: Sadly, we just lost "Jazzy" Johnny Romita not long ago.

Another great compilation and thanks for including Star Trek in this one. There were a couple of surprises like Dragnet and Peter Gunn (by the great Henry Mancini) and then you closed with a superhero trifecta. One thing I did also notice was that a number of shows in this volume were produced at/by Desilu Studios which is a testament to just how powerful they were. A comparison to today's television would be that of Dick Wolf with 9 shows on 2 different networks. Looking forward to volume 4 tomorrow.

The Man from Uncle love it.....David McCallum is still alive he is 90. Just watched A Night to Remember recently he played one of the telegraph operators on the Titanic. Stingray. - AquaMarina loved that song all them years ago. Still sounds good.

I remember most of these, but there are a few I had forgotten about. I'm making a list to see what's out there on the streaming services.

Seems like in the first season of Man from UNCLE the credits are shown over stills from the episode, while subsequent seasons had them over promo stills of Vaughn and McCallum.

Excellent idea! You are full of creative surprises!❤

Nice work Fred.

Thanks, again, Fred! I'm looking forward to the last two parts this weekend or whenever you release them. 5:30 - Possibly my favorite theme song from a show I've never seen, at least beyond credits on YT. I first heard it on one of my TV Toons tapes which I got back in the 1980s. I think I've seen another version of this closing which had much duller outro music after the main marionettes say their last dialogue. 6:35 - I thought that was a real woman at first glance, second glance I knew it wasn't. 12:25 - Jack Webb gave a lot of work to his ex-wife's new husband, Bobby Troup, casting him (and Webb's ex-wife Julie London) in EMERGENCY. Kent McWhirter was about to get a stage name, Kent McCord, when he was cast in ADAM-12. 13:20 - I love watching HAZEL (I've seen every episode now, mostly on FETV), but I can't stand the closing lyrics. I thought lyricist Sammy Cahn was lazy in having the lyrics repeat the same 4 words slowly. The lyrics only lasted about 8 episodes. This closing has to be from the sole color Season 1 episode about Hazel wanting a color tv set. Neat video from a Season 3 episode with a new 1964 Ford from a December1963 episode that I know I've seen at least once. I love the color Screen Gems sticks at the end, more than the later "S from Hell" logo.

Another round of pure gold tv themes! It's a shame YT won't let you run the DVD Show (I'm affraid to write the star's name as YT bots would probably censor my post!). Those two Gerry Anderson shows, Stingray and Fireball XL-5 had ending songs that could have made the Billboard with a little promotion. Hard to pick a favorite, but the Gunsmoke theme sure makes me dream of better times... But I could listen to all these themes all day instead of the mulch they have on radio these days.

Raise your hand if you've ever found the urge to blurt out a line from "Spoonful of Sugar" from "The Sound of Music" during the theme from "Hogan's Heroes." 👋😉

John Astin, who played Gomez, is the only surviving cast member of the Addams Family.

and wooooooow, I normally associate goodson/todman with games. the rebel was a step outside of the normal wheelhouse.

Grandma had control of "The Box" so she could mute themes as well as commercials.

Some networks you watch these shows on, throws the end titles in a small square on the left and starts the next show in a small square on the right. Or they make it small with an ad for something stupid on the right. I hate that!

You can play the closing theme to I Love Lucy, but they won’t let you play the closing theme to The Dick Van Dyke show? I guess this is just one of those things that make you go hmm. 🤔
