Original Theme Songs: 24, 23

24. Diff’rent Strokes

Composer: Alan Thicke, Gloria Loring, and Al Burton

Artist: Alan Thicke and Gloria Loring

Robin Thicke’s parents could write and sing catchy tunes too. They also did The Facts of Life, which I like, but didn’t quite make the cut.

23. Babylon 5

Composer: Christopher Franke

Never seen the show, but like most space sci-fi shows, a lot of talent is put into the music.

One thought on “Original Theme Songs: 24, 23”

  1. Ah, so much fun to watch the sitcom antics of people that are just about to completely fall apart.

    I never actually watched Diff’rent Strokes. It just wasn’t in the rotation, as my parents basically watched Cheers and dramas at that point.

    Babylon 5 never particularly grabbed me, probably as a result of me seeing bits and pieces here and there rather than getting into a clear narrative), but that’s an excellent opening theme.
