Day 21: Songs from my Favorite TV Shows

Today is supposed to be a song I listen to when I'm happy, but I already covered the happy category with day 3. Instead, I decided to try to steal a category my best friend used as a substitute, which was theme songs from his favorite shows. Unfortunately, he pretty much used all of them, so I have to be as creative as I can.

I'll start off with Community, my current favorite TV show. My friend already highlighted the theme song in his post for today (you can read his blog here) so I feel like I can't talk about that now. Instead, here's Troy and Abed's Spanish rap. It's fun even though it doesn't make sense, like pretty much everything Troy and Abed do together.


Makes me smile every time. Well, I might as well throw in the season two Anthropology rap. Because, you know, it has Betty White.


Another them song my friend highlighted was the 30 Rock theme song. I love and hate that song because, while it is incredibly catchy, that just means it gets stuck in my head every time I watch an episode. The love overrides the hate though, for sure. Another fun song from 30 Rock is Jenna's "Muffin Top," apparently quite popular in Israel. I tried to find the clip of Jenna actually performing the song, but YouTube isn't perfect. This   just has pictures of the cast in the background, but I guess it works. Anyway, this song is hilarious just because of how weird and awkward it is. Another good one is Tracy Jordan's "Werewolf Bar Mitzfah." (I'm not including that one, sorry.)


Moving away from NBC now, one of my favorite shows on TV is Psych. What I love about Psych is that it's a comedy and a drama. It's flexible enough to have some serious plots without losing its humor. And the theme song is catchy and does a great job summing up the premise of the show. Here's the full-length version of "I Know You Know."


I think four songs is enough for today. Thanks for reading, I had fun with this one.

    Actually, USA is owned by NBC, so you didn't really move away from NBC, haha.

    So NBC controls my television life. Good to know. Whatever, I still have New Girl and Castle.

    Bonus: I forgot to add this one. It's called "I Go to the Barn because I Like The" by Band of Horses. It doesn't belong to any particular tv show, but I discovered it on an episode of Psych and fell in love. You'll understand why... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPHXj_FbqgA

    I always liked it. My first episode was "And Down the Stretch comes Murder." You'll get to it in Season 2.
