TV theme show?

[Seth Austen <klezmusic...>]

I got this email from someone on another list I frequent asking if I might
know the answer to this question. Although I used to watch that show years
ago, I can't remember the tune, and I don't recall hearing the album it
might be on.

I've told him about David Krakauer's wonderful TV show theme medley on
Twelve Tribes, I really like the Adams Family theme done klezmer!, but
that's a recent release and he says he heard this 9 years ago. I'm wondering
if Mickey Katz did this? Any of you music mavens know the answer? I'm
curious now too.
