until after watching the 200th episode special. The show was my favorite of all time, I can still watch it and laugh, well crafted, well written and perfectly cast. The song had a bittersweet tone to it, reflecting the theme of the show, life may be lonely, it may get you down, but there is always someplace to go where everyone knows you and actually wants you around. Great song. Gary Portnoy also wrote the theme to Punky Brewster, at the time I used to think the song, like Punky (she's grown into a lovely young woman) was cute, and at times it felt a bit cheesy but as I hear it today that song actually makes me miss those cheesy days.
