the 80 theme is pumped full of adrenaline .... it sreams watch me!!! and it shows a few adventure clips of Mac doing adventures thins........... this new one has to label a paper clip and gunpowder for us like we are a 5 yr old

Welcome to the forums welty69.

Yup, i know how you feel. At the same time however most shos of today have a short opening title. The 80's were renowned for much longer ones.

There's a new video with Keith Power talking about the new opening theme.

Sadly, I can't watch it due to geoblocking (even when I'm usinjg ProxFree). But maybe people in the US can enjoy it and tell us about it happy.gif

So..you're not missing a whole lot. He talks about the studio they recorded in and its history. Then he says they came up with an orchestrated theme that he describes as being big, having adventure and romance. Then you hear and watch the musicians playing the new theme. And then it ends with him saying the first few seconds are Randy Edelman's work and then the new theme of his bridges the old with the new.

Thanks for the info. Thought it might be something more informative.

Agreed, I totally disliked the new theme song, it was just too short and dull.

I forgot to post it, but Keith Power had uploaded a short video of the "Phoenix Foundation Theme" at the end of September: https://www.instagram.com/p/BLARpOThBFg/?ta...keithpowermusic

I think it sounds great, so I don't get why I can't remember any music from the episodes... I guess they just "drown" in the loud music tracks and unnecessary babbling...

Does anyone think they will tweak the theme a bit for Season 2?

They did it for the Original as well. Not many, but some subtle changes for every season (or sometimes several adjustments for the same season).
