    This is the Letter Where I Write About the Opening Theme to "It's Garry Shandling's Show."

    When we're talking about opening credit sequences and theme songs, let's not forget the opening to "It's Garry Shandling's Show" (His show before "Larry Sanders"). The lyrics went something like this:

    This is the theme to Garry's Show,

    The opening theme to Garry's show.

    This is the music that you hear as you watch the credits.

    [and]

    Garry called me up and asked if I would write his theme song.

    I'm almost halfway finished,

    How do you like it so far,

    How do you like the theme to Garry's Show?
