NEXT: **Lines from show’s theme songs which you could never make out-- or got wrong-- internet finally found them for you**

1. _All in the Family_  
Second to last line, before that last “Those were the days.”

Drove me nuts. It’s “ **Gee our old LaSalle ran great.** ” [La Salle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaSalle_(automobile)) is an extinct species of auto. They were luxury cars by GM, but much more affordable than Cadillacs.

Include your explanation, but when CPing list, cut previous explanation.

2. _Family Guy_
3. _Bugs Bunny Show_  
the first line

I thought they were singing “Overture – turn _(on)_ the lights.”  
It’s really “Overture! Curtain! Lights!” … the lack of any pause between ‘curtain’ and ‘lights’ is what threw me
