How about the new theme song?
12 June 2008
Somebody help me! No-one has mentioned what, to me, was the biggest change that came with the series re-vamping - new theme music. This was the best TV theme I have ever heard, up to and including today. It has as much to do with the previous finger-snapping nonsense as a commercial jingle has to Beethoven. It had horns and strings and was incredibly stirring music. I relate it to The Magnificent Seven theme in quality. I've been able to locate this series' original theme in several places, but no luck finding the last seasons' music. Please post a comment if you have any info on this. As far as the show in this final season, I had always enjoyed the program and I continued to watch even after every resemblance to the original was dropped.
