[QUOTE="Bobby Southworth, post: 444496, member: 4960"] I remember coming across this on youtube a few years ago, and then I couldn't find it again. Thank you. I actually like it better than the intro they used for the entire first season. Not that it's 'that' different, but I like what it does once the music picks up better, and there seems to somehow be more shots of Mary around town. Yes, some of the shots look a little rough, or somehow less professional, but I like seeing some scenery we didn't get with the chosen intro. I agree it should have at least been used for the pilot, but honestly, I would have kind of liked it the whole season, or maybe at least for the first handful of episodes. The only thing I don't really like is the change in the lyrics. "Girl, you'll be so far from home"-"Girl, this time you're all alone". I like what they ended up going with better. One of my thoughts has always been that I wish so much of the intro wasn't taken up by the goodbye party scene, combined with Mary just driving. I realize this was the late 60's, early 70's, and intros were still kind of evolving into the lovely, sometimes 2+ minutes we would have by the end of the 70's :lol: , but still..I liked the changes made(at least with the scenes) for season 2 better. Again, thanks for sharing. [/QUOTE]
