BARNABY JONESING

Well, I don't know about you, and frankly it doesn't matter, but I didn't satisfy my need to hear that 'Barnaby Jones' theme music......

This first clip was for an imporant episode as far as Toobworld is concerned, since William Conrad guest-starred as his character of Frank 'Cannon':
 

One thing you may notice is that by the time of the fourth season, the theme music had altered slightly.......
 

By the time Mark Shera joined the cast (probably to help the show gain some younger viewers), the theme music had become a bit sluggish.  Also, it looks like they were really scraping to find guest stars by this point.  (Maybe it was an effort to save money?)  Martin Kove is the only name I recognized and he wouldn't become "famous" until 'Cagney & Lacey'......
 

But the guest star factor wasn't always a problem during the Jedediah years: 
 

Not all of these guest stars may be recognizable to you, but great roles in other series and/or movies come to mind when I see the likes of Janis, Balin, Masters, Chapman, and especially Bert Freed.

BCnU!
