Cool helmet and pads. And the "current" music too. Can't beat Linda Carter, but the direction and music did their best on that show.

Thanks for the clip.

Really.

Anyone have anything to contribute about Wonder Woman? Skateboarding in the late '70s/early '80s? Cheezy disco-based TV music?

I got infracted too for post whoring, whatever that is.

I think the mods really dislike Wonder Woman.

LOL, you, Besson, should know better than this.

I disagree with the infraction for Laminar, he was basically pointing the same thing out that I did, with a bit more sarcasm.

Not talking about Wonder Woman is also infraction-worthy because it is off topic.

This thread is now about cheezy TV and porn soundtracks of the 70s and 80s.

I'll start. Starsky and Hutch, WTF were they thinking? You know drugs were involved, because that stuff was wack!

YouTube - Starsky & Hutch - International Opening Theme
With a main character named "Huggy Bear" who was essentially a poster child for "1976 Pimp Haute Couture," I think there's no question that major drugs were a primary "creative" element. You cannot beat the really cool car, nor the "sliding across the hood better than any of the Dukes could possibly do," though. As for the music... The series theme music was edited down from Lalo Shifrin's score for the pilot, which says a lot, and the rest did seem to be "lets use all the jazzy-rockish-discoish music we can find because this is about boss dudes doing groovy things."

The Rockford Files had much better music (Mike Post and Pete Carpenter wrote the theme), more interesting stories (there was some mystery involved), and generally more likable characters-including Angel.

I watched Wonder Woman for the same reason most people my age (teens) did. Linda Carter was HOT in that strapless costume. The music... I don't think I ever noticed it. Which may say a lot about the music.

Hey Lam, is it possible to get an up-to-date pic of you getting infracted whilst eating a subway sandwich with OJ style black gloves on?

My brothers best friend thinks Lalo Schifrin is one of the best composers in Hollywood. He scored all the "Dirty Harry" movies, "Enter The Dragon, Rush Hour 1-3" and a bunch more. TV themes include, Mannix, Mission Impossible, and Medical Center.

No knock against Schifrin intended. Editing a TV movie score to create theme music is the issue. They did it badly too.

I second the opinion about Rockford Files. Top notch music, characters, stories, etc. Great show. On a different note, how bout the music/theme in Baretta? That was, ahem, odd.
