My Mother The Car Theme Song



The sitcom My Mother The Car only lasted one season, in 1965-66. I remember watching it, thinking what a dumb idea it was. I was seven years old. My dad figured, "It's gotta be good- Dick Van Dyke's brother is in it!" It was not. We did not watch many episodes. We got two channels, and whatever was on the other one in that time slot had to be better. However, I did not know the show was in color, because we did not have a color TV until I was in high school. I saw this video in the Cracked list of The Five Most Insufferable Sitcom Theme Songs Ever, where you might recall some of the other four.

I'm with you on My Mother the Car. I used to love It's About Time, but only the first half. Sang the chorus all the time. Something I noticed watching the songs - Imogene Coca's character name was changed for the 2nd half - from Shag to Shad. Probably to young to notice that.
