perhaps it's just me...
Feb. 2nd, 2008 12:34 pmAmanda and I just finished watching season one and two of The West Wing--which we liked, of course, despite being so slow getting around to it. Along the way, I've become aware of an odd thing.
At the end of every night's viewing, I go to bed with the theme to "My Favourite Martian" in my head. That's not a bad thing, although it is becoming a little repetitive. And if Ray Walston or ever had a walk-on, I think my brain would melt.
I have a similar problem with the "Roslin and Adama" theme from BSG, which always leaves me humming "Scarborough Fair."
It's a problem not in the sense that I reckon the composers have stolen anything. Far from it.
I'm just suffering from cognitive dissonance because the sources couldn't be more different. It's like listening to I Killed the Prom Queen and ending up with Kylie Minogue in your head, or finishing a meal of bangers and mash with the taste of strawberries in your mouth. Bear with me until it passes.
