Bosom Buddies : opening theme song

[BarbellRoy]

In the DVD Collection of this show, this version of "My Life" is taken out since Billy Joel wouldn't give the "Okay" for it. Too bad, it was a good cover of the song.

@BarbellRoy I can't understand why it is so expensive or restrictive to play original songs on the DVDs. They are always doing that. They put it in the shows in the first place.

I love this show and i absolutely love this song everytime i hear it ,it reminds me when i was a kid watching this show good old day

[monstermonroe]

it's a shame that Tom Hanks career never took off. Sure he had some small films but I expected so much more from such a great television actor. Shame he never got the credit he deserved. I hope he still isn't jealous of Peter.

@monstermonroe I agree. Playing Forrest Gump really did him in..."run, Forrest, run!". Too bad he never stopped running....away from what could've been a great career. RIP Tom Hanks. BTW, I just saw Bosom Buddies on MeTV, too bad they replaced the great Billy Joel theme with some lame prozac-inspired tune.

@howellfilm Wait a second here, you like Tom Hanks on Bosom Buddies, but you think his career ended because of Forrest Gump???

I just saw Peter Scolari yesterday. He is starring in the Music Man at the Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine. He was fabulous and still looked cute. He was polite and signed my brochure for me afterwards.

The Ogunquit Playhouse has a great reputation for quality productions and has photos of very impressive stars who've performed there throughout the years.

who would have thought back in the 70's that little known struggling tv stars like John Travolta, Ron Howard, Tom Hanks, Robin Williams, Rob Reiner, Penny Marshall, Danny DeVito would have become major stars and directors in Hollywood today. Life is good.

This Was A GREAT Show! Tom Hanks and Holland Taylor alone should be enough to just shout, "Watch me now!"

[cheapcape]

I grew up with this show! RIP Wendy Jo Sperber.

[feliciab2]

I do have vague but fond memories of this show growing up in Australia.

But life is a funny thing; All those years ago, if anyone had said the dark haired guy would go on to be one of the few double Oscar winners in history, I don't think anybody would have believed them:-)

awesome!!! donna dixon was so hot! hey there is charlie harper´s mom he he he ( Holland Taylor: Evelyn)

[GarthRMorgan]

Contrary to all the rumors, the classic theme song was sung by Atlanta's Gary Bennett. I watched him record it and I'd know that voice anywhere.

[MsJCBurke]

Basically, this was a pretty silly show - but Tom Hanks, an unknown at the time, was brilliant to watch in it and that made it great. I knew he was going to go far.

Elton John knock off sound. But still classic.

@kdpflanders1

Billy Joel

[taopolis1]

Wow, I can't believe how long that theme song is. Almost 2 minutes. That would be crazy to have an intro theme that long. Shows barely have theme songs today. Remember Seinfied?

[illuminatioracle]

i want to write a sequel to this show called "Tit Bros"

[fordude60]

This was one of my favorite shows back in the day. I always liked the opening, back when sitcoms had such a thing!

[curvy71]

this was my favorite show in the early 80's.
