Your Comedy Moment
With The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air as our featured theme song today, could "Your Comedy Moment" be anything but Alfonso Ribeiro doing "The Carlton?"
First, here's a compilation of some of the best Carlton dancing scenes set to Tom Jones' "It's Not Unusual." The second video (after the jump) is an unedited version of Carlton's dance with that laugh track clear as day.

Top Ten 90s TV Themes - Number 3
As I touched on in my review of “I’ll Be There For You,” sometimes the theme song of a show crosses over from television theme into part of the American consciousness. “I’ll Be There For You” showed its relevance to the country pretty immediately as it reached as high as #17 on the Billboard Hot 100 (when those figures still mattered). The song at number three, however, has shown its reach of the American consciousness by being the one song (outside of “Happy Birthday”) that everyone aged 20-35 can sing off the top of their head.

Podcast?
Wanted to throw it out there to my readers before beginning the process, but would any of you be interested in listening to a podcast (either weekly or monthly) regarding my views on television both past and present? I figure a podcast format would allow me to comment a little more in-depth about shows I'm digging without running into my problem of over-writing or repeating points.
Anyway, leave your opinion in the comments if you think it'd be something you're interested in or not.
Here's a shot of the cast of Mad Men in honor of their excellent 4th season which concluded on Sunday.

Your Comedy Moment
Today I wanted to share with the audience one of my favorite South Park moments. I can't help but laugh out loud whenever I see (or I guess hear) this clip. Remember new episodes of South Park are running Wednesday at 10/9c on Comedy Central.

Your Comedy Moment
What Family Matters thought of as a "comedy moment," here's a compilation of the one and only Steve Urkel:
Top Ten 90s TV Themes - Number 4
Though I’ve expressed my occasional enjoyment for instrumental theme songs (and looking at the countdown, both number five and number six would qualify), there is something even more special about a cheesy, emotional theme with lyrics written specially for the show. No one did it better than Jesse Frederick, who previously made an appearance at number ten and makes another here at number four.
