OK, this has been driving me crazy since I first saw the episode. Charlie sings a jingle for a TV show, and its main theme is maddeningly familiar – some song from the 50s. I keep thinking Everly Brothers and the lyrics, “like a burning fire,” but I can’t for the life of me pin it down.

Anyone catch it?

Sigh.

Now, I’m going to feel compelled to watch, just to answer, but because I don’t have a connection at home, I’ll have to wait 'til the morning, by which time, someone else will have answered, which means I would have wasted my time watching this show for no reason.

Grrrrr.

Grrrr. So my car battery died yesterday, so it took me forever to get home, so I missed the show, and now discover nobody else has contributed.

Sorry, RC. Let’s see if bumping helps…
