Subject: 80's TV Theme Song Lyrics Game

Written By: eightiesfan on 11/03/04 at 9:02 am

Once again, I have borrowed the idea from Lillbrown's song lyric games, only this time it applies to tv theme song lyrics of the 80's.
Someone gives a line from a tv show lyric, whoever guesses it correctly gets to give another line.  I'll start with an easy one:

"You take the good, you take the bad, you take em both, and there you have..."
