    many folks don’t know that Alan Thicke (the dad from Growing Pains) was prolific in this area having written upwards of 40 television theme songs from that era

        Yup! and although Alan is a fantastic man, for whatever reason he’s not particularly proud of his son Robin, apparently Robin has been troublesome or didn’t live up to his full potential or to his father’s expectations or something.

        And anyway that smoldering super hot song that Robin had a few years ago was written by Bruno Mars so it wasn’t really even Robin’s song. So when I wonder why his dad is not particularly proud of him, I can only speculate that he hasn’t been much of a success.
