bonus factoid: Quincy Jones claims to have written the Sanford & Son themesong in just 20 minutes! (note: this may be bullshit)

Yakety Sax, pants down. Sanford & Son is more cool than funny.

Does a guy playing "WAH WAH WAH WAAAAAAAH" on a trombone count as a soundtrack? Because that shit is HILARIOUS.

no, that's just the "Price is Right" frowny "you lost" music.

in the old german dubbed version of citizen kane, this sound is played every time the audience is supposed to laugh

This is the same German sense of humor that makes them watch that lost British comedy sketch every New Year's Eve.

20 mins seems about right.

Hey!! "Dinner For One" gets mad love all over the place, from Sweden to South Africa!! (tho I think that the holiday to show it on varies from country to country; definitley an annual thing for all sorts of places, tho.)

I think in Scandinivia they show it on Christmas Eve.

And in Scandinavia too.
