First time for this gal, believe me. Surfer Joe & Wipeout were on the charts back when but Karen wasn't , at least not in Vancouver & I wonder why she did't compete with the likes of Denise, Sherry & Sheila for that top spot. Actually when I think of it Karen is probably more my type than were the other girls the hit the charts. Karen, dosen't sound sexy & new but groovy & cute....i luv this gal & I'll be back to get another dose of good ol' r&r in the name of Karen. lol & thx4postin'

I have this on 7" from an old jukebox. My uncle bought it for me when I was about 5 as I am a Karen :)

@katfaery Nice story, a sweet song.

The theme, incidentally, was composed by the series' musical director Jack Marshall, with lyrics by co-producer Bob Mosher.

I recognise Bob Mosher's name from the credits on The Munsters.

Yes, Mosher was also writing and co-producing "THE MUNSTERS" (with partner Joe Connelly) during the period "KAREN" was produced.
