Theme
The new theme, performed by the cast, was a complete departure from the familiar tune that had served (almost) all previous adaptations of the series. The familiar finger-snapping was present, albeit at a faster pace, and accompanied by two different characters (first Lurch, then Gomez) saying the word "snap" twice in rapid succession to match the beat.

Famous quotes containing the word theme:
“It seems to me that upbringings have themes. The parents set the theme, either explicitly or implicitly, and the children pick it up, sometimes accurately and sometimes not so accurately.... The theme may be “Our family has a distinguished heritage that you must live up to” or “No matter what happens, we are fortunate to be together in this lovely corner of the earth” or “We have worked hard so that you can have the opportunities we didn’t have.””
—Calvin Trillin (20th century)
“... passion for survival is the great theme of women’s poetry.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“The saying, “The Magyar is much too lazy to be bored,” is worth thinking about. Only the most subtle and active animals are capable of boredom.—A theme for a great poet would be God’s boredom on the seventh day of creation.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
