A special song for, I guess, a very special lady...from DJ/singer/songwriter/actor/celebrity impersonator and much, much more, Stewart Brodian.
Apparently a troubled little soul, whatever the hell that means, Gary Coleman is dead and as tribute I present the original theme, a french version of the theme and Gary's infamous telephone call to some ol' hookers or others...'I may be small but I can choo-choo' of course you can dear...
Produced by Tom Wilson for a toy company in Newark and sold as 'The Sensationtional Guitars of Dan and Dale', this was in fact the cream of Sun Ra's Archestra teamed up with most of Al Koopers Blues Project! 
So here is the (all too brief) Batgirl theme from the unaired pilot. I don't suppose the show could have given us much more than the original, apart from treating us to the undoubted charms of Yvonne Graig...hmmm, maybe they should have made it!
So here we have The Penguin with yet another Batman TV show cash-in, the rather smooth and jazzy 'The Capture' plus it's B-side, 'The Escape'.
Absolute genius here as Frank Zappa takes the 'Boy Wonder' into pop heaven, with a lush arragement that only serves to emphasise his nasty sneering little voice...great lyrics and sound effects also...
Ok, to finish off these tv/movie based theme post's I'm ending with a few Batman related tracks. Now they're all going to be 1960's ones (not going near Danny Elfman or Prince) starting with, of course the original TV Theme and the Main Acknowledgement Title by Nelson Riddle from the superb movie.
Not sure whether this track is from the Saturday Supercade of Nintendo cartoons but I really like the way they varispeed everything so it's all off-key and out of time...I guess this wasn't delibrate but certainly adds to it in my ears!
A lot of blokes, and it mainly is blokes, tend to obsess about Star Wars...now don 't get me wrong I like it an all that, it's fine and was a part of my childhood too, but some people just can't let go...which is fine. I understand that..gif)
Well, if wikipedia is to be believed these little cuties generated over $1 billion in doll sales alone and these two tracks go some way in explaining why...think 'Bink Bonk' is due for covering...what do you reckon, Lady Gaga?..MIchael Jackson's ghost?
Now I haven't seen 70's cult show 'Chips' for awhile, so can't quite remember whether it was any good or not? Looking back I find a lot of these shows a bit hit and miss, some truly great while others re-run the same old formular.
Actress and singer Gillian Hills here with 'Tut Tut Tut'. Could have popped in my Franch post awhile back, but more than welcome here among the TV/Movie theme. If you're a fan of Hammer Horror movies (and let's face, who isn't?) then check out 'Demons Of The Mind',1972 featuring Gillian in action.
Famous Tv 'hardman' Lewis Collins here with his superb 'Take It Out On Time', he could have been another 'Hoff' with his pop career if he wasn't being so 'hard' at the time in 'The Professionals'..still, 'Who Dares Wins' is a pretty good film, I'd recommend you all check it out...
Here we have the wonderful Brian May's cover of the theme from the classic 80's kids show Star Fleet...and it's pretty much everything you could want from the May's riffology...and more! (yes,it does go on a bit...seems like it will never end at one point...)
Before Tellytubbies and their ilk,there existed in a the far off land of Japan a show called Kure Kure Takora (Gimmi Gimmi Octopus,apparently...) and Lo, it was genius as you can see from the clip below. 
'Uncle Benny' as he's forever known around these ere parts is much maligned in my opinion. 
Now Rastarfarianism isn't the first thing you associate with 'madcap' comic genius Russ Abbot, but here is the case for the defence. The legendary 'Burnley Is Babylon' by 'King Wilf and the Rastaplasts'.
