An aircheck that includes a sponsor billboard voiced by late CBS staff announcer Roy Rowan.
Like other fading prime-time dramas, Falcon Crest introduced synthesized theme music during the late '80s. Pales in comparison to the full-orchestral original.
The epitome of soap opera music...used until 1992.
And the epitome of '70s and '80s soap opera opens, in video for you.
Soothing, relaxing...
Remember when Morgan Fairchild wasn't a parody of glamour? This should help. Courtesy Mark in Michigan.
Courtesy Mark in Michigan. The video is worth watching for the cheesy sparkle effects if nothing else...

This could qualify as a pop song on the radio. Good music by Mike Post.
Here's the second theme used on that show; quite a contrast to the above theme.
The arrangment used during the final two seasons...courtesy Jonas in Norway.
Jonas in Norway brings you the theme from Hunter's last season...#7.

The long-lived opening used throughout the '70s until 1985.
In 1985, OLTL introduced a fully synthesized theme with vocals, composed by Peabo Bryson. For synthesized music, this is rich and catchy.
An instrumental version of the above vocal...
John in West Virginia brings you a great theme.
Here's the upbeat closing music.

This show built quite a following during late-night reruns, at least here in the S.F. Bay Area. Thanks to Tom in D.C.
