The Hammer Podcasts – Episode 15 – Cartoon TV Themes

Never let it be said that there was no band-wagon jumping on this show. After four wonderful episodes about TV themes from Andy Leyland, Tom Panarese, and Luke Jaconetti, Gene has decided to throw his hat into the ring. This time, though, youll be treated to Cartoon TV Themes going all the way from the late 1960s to the late 1990s. While possible not the “best” of the themes of that era, these are certainly memorable and will invoke feelings of nostalgia in people of a certain vintage.

Before all that, though, theres some listener feedback and iTunes reviews to discuss, including a little bit of background that came out of the Norse Mythology episode.

So sit back and enjoy this look back at the theme music for nine of some of the best cartoons around.
