Television Show Lyrics - Fun Stuff

Hi All,

I was going to write up an entry about things to do during a snowy day in the winter...but then I got somewhat inspired and thought about this topic.

Hmmm, television show lyrics. Come on now, admit, you are now thinking of either the theme song from Gilligan's Island (The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed...) or the them from I Dream of Jeannie; right? Well, now you are at least.

So I might be dating myself a big by talking about these shows but who can forget about theme songs and lyrics (if any) from Dynasty or The Mickey Mouse Show or Dallas? Ah yes...shows from the 70's and 80's. Sanford and Sun, Maude, The Rockford Files...we can go on and on but that won't help us with the blog entry at hand....

Click here for the Classic-TV database. Cool info about tv shows, cartoons, theme songs (we have a winner!) and more. Easy navigation and a lot of help from Youtube.com make this a pretty interesting site. The TV show link has a submenu of tv shows by decade (1950's to the 2000's). TV show summary, broadcast history, episode guide and tv schedule are included in each tv show entry.

This link - called Television Show Lyrics - has exactly what we're looking for...just the lyrics of lots of interesting shows. Note that the site seems a bit dated - no flashy java script or anything else that is super sophisticated. Definitely a home made site - but that makes the site that much more useful!

Finally, Fox has a tv show called, 'Don't Forget the Lyrics'. Go figure. Imagine how well you can do now that you have these two website links? Click here to visit Don't Forget the Lyrics!

Okay, okay, I'm enjoying this entry so I'll throw another site out for you!

Click here to visit STLyrics.com. Users who visit this site can find lyrics alphabetically. There is a clearly marked list at the top of the first page of the site. Clicking on the letter A for example leads you to the lyrics of the chosen television show. Simple enough.

I hope this nostalgic entry makes readers smile a bit...that's always a plus.

Regards and enjoy the songs and lyrics.
Stu
