I once spent most of a summer up in Alaska trying to remember how the theme song to Quincy went to the disgust of most of the people I was living with (very similar to CHiPs) and also trying to get them to discuss with me how Quincy got the hot babe (in the opening credits) on his boat.

The apparent truth is what they want you to believe. Don't buy it.
Oh, and argue with cops.

I confess, I love Quincy. It's high class trash, and Jack Klugman-who's 83 today!:)-is the best nosy coroner of all time! Did anyone ever see the punk episode, with the bad Henry Rollins-imitation glam punk guy, and Quincy's horror and dismay at the punk show?! classic TV!!

Yet I can hear the opening music of "The Odd Couple" clear
as a bell
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics |

The Odd Couple - that's one of the greatest theme songs ever.

I have part of that on an old VHS tape. Quincy walks into the club with the girl's mother. Mom exclaims, "That's my daughter!" The band on stage is called Pain. Their lyrics go something like "Take a hunk of concrete / Stick in your face / I like to play with razorblades / I hate the human race." There's another line like "...and when I start my Harley / Somebody's gonna cry / I DIG PAIN..."
Does anyone remember when a big storm caused a mudslide at a cemetery and Quincy had to save the town from the disease and pestilence of the rotting corpses scattered around the area?

"Ba-dum-ba-bap-ba-baaam...ba-ba-bom, ba-ba-bommmm-bom-(dunta-dunta-dunta-dunta-dunta-dunta-dunta-dunta-dunta)-BA-DUM-BA-BAP-BA-BAAAM"*etc!
Quincy:"Den-da-duh-duh-duh-duuuum:dum-baaa, ba-babop-pa-paaaammm!" Y'gotta sass it! :)
*The Odd Couple theme! Yeah, I think I might have taped bits of that Quincy episode for fun(oh, wasted youth!) I don't remember the mudslide one! |

Found it. It's a little different than I remembered it, but hey it's been 26 years:
After four nights of continuous rain a man finds a body by his car. It had been washed down the mountains and ended up in his front yard. Once Quincy has completed the autopsy he announces that the man died of typhoid, an extremely infectious disease. The man had been illegally buried in the cemetery at the top of the mountain very recently. Quincy wants the whole cemetery checked to see if there are more infectious bodies buried up there but he comes up against a barrel load of red tape trying to get this authorized.
Quincy comes up against red tape? Hard to believe!
Here's the whole episode guide:

 How could we forget!!
The show where everyone's a suspect, and everyone seems guilty at the end, because of all the red herrings! |

Our house was once owned by the county coroner. Slightly less creepy than living in a mortician's home. We still get the coroner's newsletters.
I must admit, Zorak's obsessing greatly increased my appreciation for the Klugman.

No-one but no-one is better than Colombo. My wife is a big fan, even.
I wonder how many of the non-Brits are familiar with the sleuthing mastermind of Tom Barnaby, and his trusty sidekick Gavin Troy?

I'm non-Brit and I love this one. Was very disappointed then Troy suddenly disappeared though. It just wasn't the same anymore. |
