      I loved the show. I loved the characters and the whole cast. But I was only 11 when it came out. To me the big theme was the ENDING SONG! I tried and Tried as many did and some still do to figure out what the lyrics were but finally decided (After I recorded it with a little cassette recorder off the end of the show LOL) that they were actually nonsense probably done in order to mock or just have fun with all those that often said things like "I can't even understand the ltrics to those Rock music songs! Why do you like it?" Or something similar. It turns out that I was actually right. That great hard rockin song that couldn't be bought at a record store and that no one knew the artist was done that way on purpose! I still lov ethat piece! To me it's a movement that perfectly sums up the whole feeling I and Millions of other get when a great, TRULY GREAT Rock N Roll song come on and is blasted at high Volume so I can ROCK OUT TO IT!!! Which I did every single time I had the chance until I finally had an actual recording of it.

    When the song came out, radio stations could personalize it by putting their own call sign at the end (for an additional fee I'm sure). I heard it once while driving through Stockton, Ca. and the end was "I'm at KSTN in Stockton". I've heard of other stations that did the same.

    Town to town and up and down the dial

    Leaving you behind

    As God is my witness - this is a QUALITY theme song from a QUALITY sitcom.
    Used to be shown on Friday nights at 11.30 on ITV in the early 80s, then Channel 4 showed it at 8.30 on Monday nights.

    Great theme, great song! Definitely a better time gone by. We could surely use this era of music now! I love that they used the station tag at the end...really nice touch...and for those who play, the two note slide at the end...E - C...is the bomb. Good stuff!

      Black Girl Magic I was truck driver, every state I stopped & took a picture of welcome to Sign. Ive got 35 welcome to signs. Not a glomours job but made good money. It was cool driving in those Mountains out west, a little scary at times. It was a lot of work had to keep track of the miles I drove. Its not fun driving lots of people hate those big trucks on the road.

You put in long hours away from home with often tough road conditions and crazy drivers. You deserve good money and I salute you! Thank you all so much for your hard work! 🌟🏆🤗
