The Greatest Theme Song of All Time
The wackiest, zaniest, fast-paced theme song. Breathtaking TMS animation that makes you gawk at the anime-american fluid hybrid style from the minute the water tower zooms in. It's the ultimate theme song, whether it be any of the seasons, or sing-along varations. The first variable verse aired at the end of the theme (Here's the show's name-y) should have been the only one beyond being the standard. The first season with Bill Clinton playing the sax was the most well-knownn version of the theme song. If Hollywood is all about unions, it is "pay or play contracts", rather than "..for..". I always loved this theme song.
