Crockettt Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 It's actually part of the episode itself' date=' so if you have access to the episode you're good to go. The "teaser" is the earliest part of the episode; it takes place BEFORE the opening credits.[/quote'] Oh, thanks so much myonlyvice. I'll check it out.

And good call. I hadn't heard it called that before. Now I know. And now that I think about it, I don't think I could ever handle another "Who's the Boss" where they're all sitting around the table at the end laughing at some awful joke. Yuck! I hate those. Some I can dig though, maybe if it was a show like Magnum or Riptide (Riptide might be over the top cheesy though, still, it's 80s, and just a hunch).

Even by the early 1980s the TV show "tags" we're familiar with were so cliched that they were being spoofed:http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MukmRnkRJw&feature=related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call. Come to think of it the only show whose tags I enjoyed was "Seinfeld". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
