Silver Spoons Later Theme

[capnhands]

here we are slap your face

[abysmalatrocious]

Erin Gray...everything good about Julia Roberts and Nancy McKeon, and you have Erin Gray!

[thebigpoopful]

Ratings are dropping. Lets change the show.

[abysmalatrocious]

I'm 38 in 2011 (just to provide a timeframe of reference for when I grew up), and I liked this intro the best of the Silver Spoons. I kind of like that "boom" at the beginning. I actually teared up watching this; reminds me (and many others here) of some good happy times.

[TheRobert2254]

this where carlton from freshprience got his start

[level242]

It surprises me that this show didn't do well in syndication

[haven1095]

were the one he road a train through the house

[seaquest2011]

when is season 2 coming out???

[hootyhaha]

Rented season one on DVD from Blockbuster Online, it rules! I wish TV shows could have this feeling today with some of the lessons and morals taught in the same ways.

[fivebearrugs]

Rick Schroeder should've guest-starred on Fresh Prince of Bel-Air :)

[retroguy1976]

@fivebearrugs i know right??



[fivebearrugs]

LOL, I love how most 80s sitcoms started off with "gentle", peaceful theme songs, and then switched to rock versions for its later/final seasons; The Facts of Life also did this... :)

[mooky9669]

never liked this version of the theme..I always liked the original one.

[jpd782]

What was it with TV theme songs that, in the early years were soft and family like. Torwards the end of the run. Would get a new singer and try to "rock out"

[monsieur305]

lol @ token black guys

[larrystarstruck]

I don't remember that opening. Thanks for posting. I remember the openings for the first two seasons.

[ninaastarlight]

Ricky, oh Ricky, how i had a crush on Ricky..... Gr8 80's shows they don'y make show like this any more.

[drunkenjudgement]

whoa it had carlton in it =D

[THUNDER6445]

"out where the river broke" god the intro sounds like a faster version of MIDNIGHT OILS "BEDS ARE BURNING"

[001GenLee]

Ah, Alfonso, a.k.a. Carlton from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Now, he's the host of Catch 21 card game on Game Show network. Life has treated him well. This must've been the later episodes of Silver Spoons as Ricky Schroeder's all grown up. I've got the 1st season on dvd of Silver Spoons...I wished they make more seasons than just the one. Maybe they will...

[WeatherKoopaTroopa]

I absolutly love this show and I wasn't even born until 1991

[foodiedave]

Rick Schroder is a Mormon and he wears magic underpants. He talked about it on the Howard Stern show one time.

[jarbon5]

Liked the original theme song better:)

[princessjerseygirl04]

suppose to sound dated dick wad a classic

[coolbmartin]

This version of the theme song was changed to sound more rock.

[readytorock865]

Erin Gray..damn she is fine!

[XXCrimsonFoxXX]

Agreed. One of the most beautiful women that I have ever seen. She still looks great today at nearly 60.

[Boogers4dinner]

I wish I had a god damn "Silver Spoon"! I wouldn't be making minimum wage! God damn it! LOL

[bravoguy30]

ricky's face is funny at 0:18. =D hehe i didnt see it growing up, but i see it everytime on Tube Time OnDemand, and i love it! i wish it lasted longer than 5 seaons/yrs. =) *sighs*

[bravoguy30]

where can i find the audio to this? it rocks! hey that makes sense! =D hehe

[daisy61480]

i loved this show as a child

[BlueRice]

you were gay as a child then

[daisy61480]

aND U MUST BE GAY NOW BLUE RICE HUH WHAT KIND OF NAME IS THAT?????? FAGGOT

[BlueRice]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO

what kind of name is daisy sound like a girl name to me. or else you might be wearing daisy duke " i got short short - you got short short"

LMAOOOOOOO

[Tonyo1221]

2 Guys called Daisy and Blue Rice arguing whos gayer over the theme to silver spoons from the 80's . . . . . Gottta love youtube. :)

[daisy61480]

BITCH I AINT NO GUY

[tygastyl]

LOL

[FlixCreEightR]

the face ricky makes at 10secs into the intro is a little.......creepy and gay ???!!

[c00lwatter]

He went into acting because he was asked to. He is a clasically trained dancer. Lol.

[c00lwatter]

Alfonso RIBEIRO. Oh, thats a protuguese name.

[X3pqRenQ]

Doesn't matter he still sucks as an actor. He was a ham back then, and a hack on the Fresh Prince.

Where is he now? Alfonso is probably at the unemployment office.

[deglover25]

Alfonso is the host of a game show on GSN called "Catch 21".

[jojomofo987]

I don't know who this hack is but the original theme song blows this one out of the water!

[mooky9669]

I agree...the original theme is the best..Same goes for The Facts Of Life..

[megamanj2004X]

and Diff'rent Strokes, too.

Ironically by the fall of 1985, this show (Silver Spoons), The Facts of Life, and Diff'rent Strokes all updated their theme songs.

[vardiss22]

@megamanj2004X ...yeah thats true..probably had something to do with the whole MTV"sound" thing in 84....then the Cosby Show came along and had a different version of its theme song every season.



[amyinsight]

i never caught this show on tv as a kid

[hsnswf]

I love the song but the quality was not very good. Thanks for showing though.

[CreativeCritisizm]

Hey look, it's Ricky Scrotum !

[tacoma2317]

you think ron jeremy would do erin gray?

[UdoShan]

I think Ron Jeremy would do anything that moved! lol

[tacoma2317]

I dunno, I think Ron is in to the 400ibs plus women now.

[psykosel]

i wanna know when season 2 is getting released on dvd.

[Horselover215]

me, too.

[MikeLutton]

carlton now dating tiffany from wwes ecw lol of all people she had end up with

[mnmcv1]

wow, I forgot how beautiful Erin Gray was (maybe she still is- i havent seen her in years...)

[gamehound83]

R I P Franklyn Seals

[prinzess1173]

terrible version!!the first one is better!!=)

[manguy2000]

I totally forgot Carlton was in this show.

[markuslordus75]

I forgot too, and I forgot why I stopped watching this show

[CanadaFamilyMan]

That just shows how boring Carlton really is!

[harry202020]

so classic... and horrible

[chroniccomics5]

yoyu've got 10 seconds to beat it before I add you to the list of NSF casulaties

[riker10a]

I've seen Alfonso on GSN as a co-host doing the GSN live quizes during the gameshows they show on GSN during the commerical breaks.

[drevsdre9]

oh wow - from pittsburgh

wpgh 53 before it was FoX

lol

[sycoraxrock]

This version of the theme song was absolutely sung by a blonde mulleted studio musician named Rixx Rocket or something, probably known otherwise for his direct-to-video self-help series YOU CAN TOO with RIXX ROCKET, and perhaps a porn or two he co-starred in during the 70s. Ah, Los Angeles....

[gerulm1]

Is Alfonso Carlton from fresh prince??

[OnlineNBored]

yes Alfonso is Carlton, but this theme song sucks, the original is great.

[reh629]

he is a career sidekick.

[Manlyrog]

Whatever happened to Erin Gray, and Joel Higgins?! And what else was Alfonso in? I'd forgotten all about this show!! Ricky was a cute little boy! HA

[jimmypi]

You have to ask what Alfonso was in? More people remember him from Fresh Prince than Silver Spoons!

[agenttorpor]

How much lacquered shellac was used to keep Rick's hair immobile and helmet-esque? Good lord.

[31MOBH]

what ever happened to FREDY? I always wanted to cruise around on the TRAIN. Remember the urban legend that Alfonso died when he broke his neck doing the head-stand-spin? he's on the gameshow network now.

[alice4au]

Wasn't he on the Fresh Prince of Bell Air with Will Smith

[birdhums]

Hahaha! I had a crush on Ricky too when I was little.

[stormygirl22]

I used to have a crush on Ricky.

Ahh the days.........

omg... I'm gonna be one of those people that talk about "back in the days"

[zziicckk01]

Wow!!!! Erin Gray was quite the babe in this show.

[abysmalatrocious]

@zziicckk01 I thought that Erin Gray actually looked prettier in the later episodes of Silver Spoons! Just look at her on the earlier SS introes, and look at her here!

[minharts]

Franklyn Seales died of A.I.D.S. in the early 90s. he was an accomplished painter as well.

[gamehound83]

I thought I was the only one who knew that. Thanks for mentioning it

[Kelski1998]

WOW I did not know that thank you for the knowledge

[qwandiddy]

Ohh my goodness, thank you for posting this, I forgot about this show, I was only 2 when this came out, one of my favorite old school TV shows all times

[ajkells22]

You're welcome qwandiddy!

[abysmalatrocious]

@qwandiddy You must be about 26-28 in 2011? I'm just guessing, because I'm 38 now, and I was probably 10-11 when SS came out.  Joel Higgins and Ricky Schroeder clicked very nicely as father-son on the show.

[ejr1978]

one of the new "rock" themes. Notice that around this time, most of the Embassy shows had new, more hip remixes to their theme songs coupled with montages during the opening on how their kid stars grew up (Diff'rent Strokes, Facts of Life, Silver Spoons).

[georgelee43211]

no dout. mtv influence

[JackSmith07]

The best episode is when rick has a sleep over and they put frogs in that kids sleeping bag and he starts crying. i love those serious humiliation moments in 80s sitcoms. God damn it. Like when jack ruined terry's dress at the party in the first terry episode of threes company.

[agenttorpor]

Terri standing there in utter humiliation was most squirm-inducing. Quite uncomfortable. What was with 80s sitcoms making us feel bad?

[JackSmith07]

hahah i dont know but i love it. Humiliation scenes are a lost art in sitcoms. Everyone is so concerned with looking invincible these days.

[balotelli72]

Alfonso Ribeiro plays on the sit-com with Willy Smith (Willy Prince of Bel Air) Excuse me for my orrible English....I'm italian. Ciao.

[Donger74]

Who exactly is the "we" in this song? The song says how together they will be doing all these things the 2 of them. So who would that be?

[VisionQuest2012]

This first came out in 1982. That was 26 years ago. The 80's was a great time for music and tv.

[WeedVulva]

@VisionQuest2012 no shit

[gamehound83]

I think the sad thing is that Franklyn Seals died of AIDS

[HeSaveDave]

LMAO

[gamehound83]

Why do you think thats funny?

[Ratmann3684]

on demand has been showing this show for a long while but its still only episodes from the very early seasons..i need later editions.

[LeanaJo76]

Rick now has 4 kids!! Wow! He's come a long way. And still a hotty.

[VenomsLegion]

FREDDIE RULES!!!!!!!

[Eparabola]

Carlton!

[ameliathebunny]

I just sung the whole theme song. And, I remember the episode where they get rescued from the burning building. (Scene in the opening)

[MaxL214]

if you have this theme with the remix please forward it to me.

[um6xr]

this realy nice and it was a realy good show to and rick shroeder has came a long way he has done realy good

[1Coverboy7]

the original theme is a lot better

[themillenia]

I liked him in that movie, The Last Battallion. He seemed so mature.

[NintendosAdvocate]

Dang, I didn't know there was a different version of this theme song? I can tell I was really young when these first aired. I like the original theme better though.

[iluvcircusfreakz]

NO GO 1ST SEASON THEME

[2Faded247]

Carlton

[princessjerseygirl04]

a child star who didn't die young or go to jail, wow!

[bigbill1991]

Rick Shroeder has come a long way.

[southplnk]

wow  this intro brings me way back to when i was a kid thanks for posting

[somewhatlongdong]

is joel higgins gay? erin gray has a wildly small bust.

[mignonhenne]

erin doesn't have nipples.lol.

[CanadaFamilyMan]

Now why would Joel be gay? He has a wife named Stacy and they have a son named Graham. They've been together for over 20 years.

No, somewhatlongdong, Joel Higgins is NOT gay.

[ripping76]

God , now i have to admit im 31. Does bring back good memories though!

[jmarcia]

LOL

[SamHa1n]

fake!1

[ninneman75]

i did!!

[castingtherunes]

I always thought the dad was cool, but Ricky was a brat.

If I were Ricky, I would've fucked my stepmom.

[collector2]

yes comcast carries it on tube time

[hot96rox232]

yeah when I was a 13 year old boy I used to have a major crush on Ricky.

[AngryWhiteGurl]

God me too! He didn't age well did he?

[VaultMasterDBT]

Of course he did..he still has that baby face and he's what..38?

[malfoy2]

I did when I was about 15

[ladyp1234]

Rick schoeder look like a baby seal in the first few seconds

[angiecopus]

I love Silver Spoons, just got the First Season DVD.

[ShaDeed329]

[ghostbusterguy2001]

hey that black guy is in fresh prince of bailer as carlton

[fxsaber]

Season one is now out.

[WJRSTV]

The last 2 themes were used during the same season. Don't know why...this one I liked better, but the singer was different the the other versions.

[ajkells22]

YES! Me too! For some reason I really like this version!

[mallamoozoo]

its coz its got a bass line - makes everything sooooooo much better.!

[mooky9669]

I don't remember this version...only 2 themes I remember is the original and the season 5 rock theme...

[billybassman21]

I miss that show. I wish someone would upload a few episodes as I can't find it anywhere. Thats for uploading.

[InkedMommy]

If you have Comcast Digital Cable you can watch it on demand.
