Musical deja vu

(1/3) > >>

BrandonFG:
I asked in the Answer Machine thread whether a host has appeared on two different shows - no reboots - that used the same theme song. For Jim Peck there was that and Second Chance, along with Geoff Edwards's Shoot for the Stars and Jackpot '89.

Jamie offered this.

* Love Experts theme follows Bill (host) to Strictly Confidential pilot (guest)
* Love Experts theme follows Geoff (guest) to Famous Las Words (host)
* Double Dare theme follows Alex (host) to Card Sharks (guest)
* Jackpot '74 - $50,000 a Minute (Geoff)

Not necessarily shows that made it, just observable instances :D

Any others? Host/guest combos count.

You know, in the event that there aren't many other music cases, I feel like this could expand to a broader "Deja Vu" scope.
Not just music, but what about people?
Example: John Hatton appeared on Break the Bank when Bill was a guest, then on Blockbusters with Bill as host. The roles don't have to be different, the connecting pieces just appear together.
Back to original question, one more: The theme to Personality followed Larry Blyden when he subbed for Bill on ToaM. (At least, I assume it was always the same Cobert piece?)

Bill guested on Personality so it goes both ways with that theme.

If we're going into celebrity guests and the same theme, 7 of the 12 participants of 3oaM celebrity weeks had previously guested on Personality as well.

Did Three On a Match always use the same theme?  Years ago I got what I thought the was theme in a trade, but it was a different piece.  I was told the piece I got was the first theme to the show.  I don't know whether that's true or not.

Blanquepage:
2 more: Main theme to Cop Out followed Geoff to (The New) Treasure Hunt.
Vicki Lawrence, Nipsey Russell, and Jo Ann Worley guested on both Blankety Blanks and Double Talk.
