Video of the Week: Believe It or Not

This week, I'd like to go back in time to revisit yet another old (yet cool) TV show opening.

The song itself, Believe It or Not, easily gets stuck in your head.  It hit #2 on the charts in August 1981.  The result is a song known by many today, not knowing it came from a quirky and funny sci-fi 80's show.




And as a bonus, here is George Costanza using the song on his answering machine ...
