  • Yes, because it was recorded from a vinyl record that Hal Hidey had made of the highlights of the "Bullseye" soundtrack.

  • Can anyone explain why I hear record pops during the song?

  • groovy:)

  • As a young lad growing up in southern Vermont, I remember watching this show on WGGB 40 from Springfield, MA and then in reruns on what was then CBN (ABC Family nowadays).  Scariest bonus round ever because I used to jump every time a player got "struck" by lightning!

  • At 0:00: Until next time, this is Jim Lange, hoping everything you're going for HITS THE BULLSEYE, BYE!!

  • :42 what's with the "RIGGED" sign facing the studio audience?!?!?!

  • @BatmanFan1966 Consider Barry & Enright's track record regarding "Twenty-One" back in the 1950s...

  • so disco!

  • Make a revamped version of this show.(but keep that sound when the bonus island comes and crashes into the wall) :)

  • @DBR00 I remember that. It was pretty cool.

  • 3 people got lightning.

  • @UNCJerry77 You mean struck by lightning,LOL.

  • 0:39 look at the top of the screen with the white lettering at the bottom. See it? LOL.

  • I enjoyed the theme songs very much. Reminds me of my crazy date with a lovely girl. She loved this game show too. Many years later I saw her at her hs reunion. Married to some other guy and has kids. Dang I wish it was me.

  • This game should be part of a Game Show Classics Collection for like the PS2,XBOX 360,PS3,Nintendo DS,Wii, and even the PSP!!

  • see the reason why they r not reruning these cuz they got destroyed becuse of the quality of the recorded shows

  • DOES THAT SIGN AT :40 SAY RIGGED?! (UP TOP)

    Thats pretty funny cosidering Barry & Enright's track record!

  • @BestMusicExpert Yes, it does. That surprised me, too.

  • @BestMusicExpert unfortunately yes it reads that i was hoping it didnt either

  • yeah i remember loving this as a kid! very underated theme. Could've probably been released as a single lol! Catachy and funky as hell.

  • I absolutely love this theme music! I can't stop listening to it.

  • I agree, It is one of those underrated game show themes that is a hidden gem indeed. Thank you, operator35, wherever you are!!! :)

  • The Bullseye theme inspired me to do a new dance: the air violin!

  • omg could you please teach me that? ^^

  • Comment removed

  • Simple,if you ever played violin or seen someone who does,you can do it. It's like air guitar but on the shoulder. The reason is that the theme song has a little violin in it.

  • @nickisuhl Check out my vid,The People's Lima 3---Grooving To The Bullseye Theme ,it will help you out.

  • Is it just me or did some of chords in the BULLSEYE theme song sound a little like the beginning chords to Dexy's Midnight Runners' one-hit wonder "Come On Eileen" ?

  • If it's okay with you I can put this in my playlist of TV Game Show theme songs.

  • It would be nice for GSN to put Bullseye back in its line up. Better yet, revive the show.

  • I hum this song now. It's one of those songs that once you hear it, it sticks with you

  • I used to love this gameshow!

  • This is a very good piece of music. Since it was the eighties & a bright set it's on;y natural that you have catchy music. It inspires many prize cues & win cues with it too; good to have derivative of the main theme rather than a bunch of unrelated music cues. I can already feel myself dancing to this & putting this on if I can't stand regular music. This piece of music gets 5 stars; we'll be humming it to ourselves for the next week.

  • Wrong Bullseye. This one didn't Use darts but Plungers to Stop Spirals on a "starboard"

  • @crossana BUZZZ

    sorry, this is the American Bullseye

  • I sure wish Game Show Network would air reruns of this show again. Better yet, release the damn episodes to DVD (yes, even the ill-fated Celebrity Bullseye broadcasts)

  • Or even better redo the show with a updated feel

  • I agree and not only that,release it as a video game along with Tic Tac Dough and The Joker's Wild. Release every episode on DVD,including every celebrity episode.

  • @srosenow98 the best way to get your wish come true is to write GSN a letter and ask them to air Bullseye again.

  • secondchance, rigged is the camera shot used on the rigged camera at the top of the studio. The director will say "up on camera2, tight shot camera1, up on camera 1." The shot that is on T.V. is the rigged shot. Broadcasting major.

  • Oh. Thanks for telling me that.

  • If you notice at :41, below one of the screens for the audiance it says "RIGGED"

    What does it mean? The Quiz Show Scandels again?

  • No clue, but since that particular still was from the pilot, would've been OK to rig it.

  • I though that Barry-Enright stopped rigging by 1972? Creepy

  • Maybe the pilot

  • According to Wikipedia, Barry & Enright used the Santa Esmarelda cover of "Please Don't Be Misunderstood" for the Bullseye ($1 Million) pilot. Hal Hidley reworked the song's music score to produce the theme used on the TV show.

  • One of my top five game show themes of all-time.

  • 1)$10,000 Pyramid "Tuning Up"(Aldin)

    2)orig. Wheel of Fortune "Big Wheels"(Thicke)

    3)Bullseye(Hidey)

    4)To Tell The Truth 1980(Score Productions)

    5)Newlywed Game (Barris)

  • 1)10,000 Pyramid

    3)Split second (i think score productions?)

  • Stan Worth did the SS theme, and "Jet Set" was by Mike Vickers.

  • Oh. Thanks for telling me. I didnt know about the SS of Jet Set. THNX!

  • i mean OR jet set!lol

  • I love this game show. This takes me back when I was 2 years old.

  • Great show, great theme, and even the set was given a thumbs up by Johnny Carson when it was at the NBC studios in Burbank before being moved to Studio 33 at CBS Television City--yes the same Bob Barker Studios used today by TPIR.
