By the way, I doubt Fenady had much to do with it, but the short-lived “Branded” had one of those great, iconic theme songs.

that is a great theme.
But apparently he did do the theme music for The Rebel.

I remember in elementary school there being a 9-year-old boy version of the Branded theme song:
“Stranded, stranded on the toilet bowl
What do you do when you’re
Stranded, and you can’t reach a roll?”
It’s a shame what utter nonsense occupies space in my brain….
So this one man tried to with all his might
He was finally relieved but
Stranded, stranded on the toilet bowl
What do you do when you’re stranded and you can’t find the roll?
He was in a stall and he had to go
But then to his surprise was
Stranded, stranded on the toilet bowl
What do you do when you’re stranded and you can’t find the roll?
To prove you’re a man you must wipe with your hand
While you stand in the can – STRANDED!
Now all I can think about are the multiple alternative lyrics to BATMAN NA NA NA NANA NA…
RIP
Wow, we are both old, aren’t we?
For a sensible little chuckle, go to imdb and check out who created and produced “Branded.”
I could say I had to look it up, but that would break my Boy Scout oath.
