Today, that being September 8, 2021, the show announced that they're going to have a reworked version of the Changing Keys theme at the beginning of the season on September 13. I'm actually surprised Sony worked something out with Merv Griffin's estate that they'd be able to use it, but I'm happy about it as well. 😀
@justinmiddleton88182 жыл бұрын
Yes, and considering it was officially discontinued as the show's theme after Merv retired from the executive producer position in 2000 (after having spent several years sharing producer duties with Friedman before turning it all over to him) the fact we're getting it back after nearly 21 years is a total surprise. This is an unexpected and nostalgic development. Guess they were finally able to negotiate with the estate for it's use in the show again.

I agree. The current theme is not as great as "Changing Keys". I would be okay if they used it as part of a "Throwback Week" or something to that tune, no pun intended. Even "Jeopardy!" and "Price is Right" know better than not to mess with success as both shows have kept their respective themes in the time they have existed making only minor changes.

Will N Not sure I can agree with you on that. Yeah, Bob was a legend but not without some of the controversies. The set looks way better now because of all the updates they made, and Drew looks very comfortable now and made the show his own style, with his own way of handling the models (the Models Rule episode during one April Fools episode would've never happened under Bobs hosting, and yeah, model turnover happened with Bob as well). Now the models seem more a part of the show and more involved with it than just there. I think the show has become even better now. Sorry, but I just think it does.
