Members DRW50 Posted August 26, 2019 Members Share Posted August 26, 2019 I also have some memories of the syndicated version. I've never seen the original seasons. What a cast that is. Well, the first two, anyway... The first opening is fine. (the season 2 opening looks hideous - that style was very "in" in the early '80s but it looks terrible here) The third opening is marred by the text typing. The fourth one has an interesting look at first but then spends way too much on that bizarre rotary telephone design - is that a way of saying they had way too many cast members and didn't know how to show them? And why is the song so sped up? I notice they completely gave up on Rachel looking like Dolly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted August 27, 2019 Members Share Posted August 27, 2019 I think the 1st opening is the only good one. They just got progressively worse Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
