I remember hearing this theme during the first episode of Wonderfalls and thinking, "Huh, the intro song is sort of weird... huh, I think I like it." and now (I've seen every episode), I think it's the best theme song I've ever heard. It worked so perfectly with every episode ♥ It was such a great feeling to see the start of an episode, like with Jaye at a police station or something, and then hear this quirky tune singing "Wonder wonder wonder wonder fallllsss". :)
@RioPugliese Have you heard XTC before (the singer of this is their leader)? If not, check 'em out, they're FANTASTIC. If you already listen to them, you'll know what I mean ;-)
Lee Pace is probably one of my favorite actors, next to Joaquin Phoenix, Oh wait, nevermind, Joaquin phoenix is not an actor anymore, he a fucking RAPPER. :p kill me now.
Just got hooked on WF myself. Went from "never heard of it" to "watched em all, I want more" in under 24 hours. With the crap that is on TV now its a crying shame that this show is gone. Canceling WF makes baby jesus cry.
He is truly a genius, but no, he won't get noticed. Andy has been consistently brilliant in his songwriting for 30 years, so if it hasn't happened yet, it never will. This is because the world loves the lowest common denominator, the crudworthy American idol and z-list celebrities, and fails to recognise true genius, and that is their loss.
And incredibly horrible rap and hip hop at that. I would appreciate it a wee bit more, it if more of the hip hop and rap acts could write a melody or lyrics with even a tiny fraction of Partridge's imagination. Btw acts like K-Os and Shad are a welcome exception to the rule.
Now, you've got me unsure here... :S imdb lists dates of 2009 episodes, so I might be wrong here... I really hope I am. In that case I'm sorry for the misinformation. 'Dead like me' did get cancelled, however, and was a good one too. :(
Can't get enough of this song! Been listening to it over and over for the last hour or so :) I've just recently discovered the series; it's a shame stuff like this or Eli Stone get cancelled... :(
Andy Partridge is one of those musician's musicians ...
genius? absolutely... just listen to his super 8th degree jedi master sarcasm responses to silly questions in interviews... andy partridge is truly a genius. he is absolutely a hysterically funny man as well could have done voice overs for cartoon characters or comedy.. highlighst of my life was when i got andy to reply to two of my messages on their official forum.
@cromwellian13 Oh NOOO!!! PLEASE don't let the world discover Andy!!!! He's the XTC//Dukes etc followers belovedly best kept secret - besides do we think most of general boring entertainment public could really understand him anyway? Lol! Cheers to you!

He's doing a new film but only with a very little part :(

ph43rd37h 2 years ago 36
@ph43rd37h yeah but you only say that because it is cancelled after 2 seasons or less.
remember 24, was loved as one of the best shows on tv, but now while enjoyable people laugh at how the same plot twists kept showing up.
Simpsons is one of the best shows on tv, but you wouldn't know it from seasons 15 thru 19, and even now it's only better than 19.
point is given a choice between a show with 2 or less and one with 5 or more I usually of for the first.

Shakesperean, my friend. I couldn't have said it better myself.
People could be listening to this amazing lyricist who's worthy of so much--but no, rap and hiphop are what we get on our top 40.
