Day 17 - Favorite mini series

They don't really air a lot of mini-series anymore, and I don't watch many. I think my favorite mini-series of all-time is North and South, mostly because I remember watching it when I was really little and being enthralled by it. Don't know if I'd enjoy it today.

I think my favorite mini-series right now is Sherlock. I count that as more a mini-series than series. I'm getting a little tired of the Sherlock vs. Elementary stuff, but I still really love Sherlock. I really loved the first episode as soon as I saw it. I got my boyfriend to watch it and he's really fallen in love with it. He asks a lot when it's coming back.

Day 18 - Favorite title sequence

I thought this would be so easy. I was going to pick Buffy the Vampire Slayer's opening and that was that. But then I started really thinking about the theme songs and sequences I really loved throughout the years, and then made the mistake of going on YouTube and got kind of stuck on an 80's nostalgia trip. Ultimately, I think my favorite sequences are The Cosby Show's credits from seasons 4-8 (excepting the godawful credits from season 5.) I liked all the credits post season 1 where they were dancing, but season 4 was the first one where I liked the opening music as well and really wanted to dance with them.

season 4
seasons 6 & 7
season 8


Also the Growing Pains theme. I think my favorite kinds of opening were ones that used clips from the show and where you could see the progression of the characters over the seasons. I also adored that they used pictures of the cast. And the endings for the openings were sometimes different depending on which character had the main storyline. The opening theme never changed, but after season 2 it was sung by different people. I preferred the season 2 singers.

Season 2

The biggest earworm theme for me is the one from Hey, Dude. I haven't seen the show in ages, and yet sometimes out of the blue I'll start singing the song.

"It's a little wild and a little straaaaaange..."
