You figure correctly.
Blanquepage:
After rewatching Number Please tonight, I'm throwing that show's music into this "worst music" category. Ew.
BrandonFG:
I just watched part of an episode of Break the Bank from '85.
It starts off decently, gets really dramatic out of nowhere, then just becomes a jumbled mess.

I've always wondered if companies like Score, with several different composers working for them, would always have an existing library of ideas they were working on, partial demos recorded, etc. which hadn't been "claimed" yet, that producers could choose from if they needed something in a rush? With all the shows they worked on over the years, it would be surprising for me if every time a show needed music from them that they'd start from scratch. Aren't composers always working on stuff?

Thing is, especially by the 80's, most game show themes were taken from existing music.
Body Language theme = "Working Girl March" (though I would argue the Classic Concentration theme sounds more like it)

Actually, "Working Girl March" was used in the unsold pilot "Star Words" (hosted by Nipsey Russell; he was dancing to the music at the start of the show and at the end of the show he was with Charles Nelson Reilly and Patty Duke Astin and he said they were "gonna boogie on outta here. Eat your heart out, Richard Simmons." where they began to "boogie on out".
Steve_Bier:
Since we are on the topic of music, I have often wondered about to seem to “Every Second Counts” (US run). The theme sounds very similar to the original theme song to “Fight Back! With David Horowitz“. As both shows were Westinghouse productions, and neither list a theme music composer, would it be safe to assume that one - or both - programs used stock music from KPM?
