"Lots of fun, and I'm glad to have it, but can you really claim any artistic merit for the Roger Ramjet song? Two other minor points: It's kind of silly to have The Wonderful World of Color on an album called Black and White Classics. Also, I was extremely disappointed in the Fugitive cut without the voiceover. Come on -- is your most vivid memory the music, or William Conrad's voice, " Dr. Richard Kimble, an innocent victim of blind justice..."?Still, I'm glad I have it. Where else are you going to find Beany & Cecil, Captain Midnight, Soupy Sales, etc. A lot of old friends are here.The words of Bob Hope's theme song say it best -- "Thanks for the memories.""
Thanks for the memories.

(4 out of 5 stars)
"This CD features 65 Television theme songs from the late '40s to the early '60s. Most of the more famous shows from this era appeared on Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 of this series, so there are some pretty obscure shows on this one. Who remembers "Karen" or "The Everglades"? Of course, there are also some fondly remembered shows, like Tennessee Tuxedo, Make Room For Daddy and The Untouchables. But there isn't quite as much nostalgia value for me this time around, since many of the themes are from shows I never saw."
