5 stars for the beginning and ending.

Seems like TV production company fanfares were pretty dissonant and unsettling up until the mid 70s or so.

Good old Gulf+Western.

Almost mesmerizes.

So did the combination of brass and xylophone just seem more resonant on the old TV speakers or what? Common combination in the 60s

... my life!

It never stops sounding like old Star Trek music. It sounds so terrible when they replace the deep brass sounds with thin, tinny brass sounds. The cringeworthy CBS Television theme and the many attempts to chop it up into something less embarrassing is awesome.

I knew the "Closet Killer" would be in there somewhere. I was one of those kids that got scared by shit like this. also, my brother was terrified by the cul de sac shot on the Dynasty bumpers.
