That's my late father, Russ Freeman, playing the piano on this tune. :)
He’s one of the reasons I wanted to play piano. And the trumpet solo made me want to play trumpet. I have played both since ‘75 and have been a professional musician since ‘82. I wish I could thank your dad but I’ll thank you, instead.
The Rippintons Respect
It's beautiful. That section of the song where it takes a sentimental turn has always sounded to me like Vince Guaraldi ("Peanuts") tickling the ivories to the Outro of Clapton's "Layla."
Patricik Williams and your dad were a winning music combo.
I love your dad's background figures so much on this piece. Just beautiful
I guess I wasn't the only one to show up here on 7/18/24... RIP to a Comedy Genius.
Exactly !! Bob Newhart, fan, childhood memories... R.I.P. Bob Newhart 🙏
Nope! Just learned the news. RIP to him.
Rest in Peace Bob. Thank you for decades of laughs🤍
Ditto
@@KenMcMunn-bp5xv The Lord blessed him with a nice long life and certainly made people laugh.
@@crabbymilton390 True, but if only it could have been longer.
That's my great Aunt Anna Mae (my grandmother's sister), a beautiful 100% Finnish lady with the white scarf on her head, sitting opposite Bob Newhart on the train at 00:42. She was riding the train that day and a bunch of people hustled into the train station with cameras. She didn't know what was going on and went with the flow. Found out months later she was in the opening song for a hit TV show when surprise, she saw herself on national TV. Those were the days. RIP Aunt Anna Mae!
My father's people come from Finland, did a geneology thing, they go back forever!
Aww sweet comment rip
Aunt Anna Mae
Greetings from Mckinnon Georgia
That's such a sweet story about your great aunt, Colleen...how interesting that on a random day she became part of a treasured TV classic which is still being enjoyed fifty years later.
Broke my heart that he passed. 😢 I'm 52 and was so privileged to have grown up with BOTH of his TV shows, from being a little kid to graduating high school. Bob was one of the greats.
there was actually a third that followed the two classic ones but it had low ratings and so the producers changed the concept midway through the single season which didn't help in building a fan base that would have eventually increase the ratings-even though the third show was flawed, Bob was as brilliant as usual.
R.I.P. Mr. Newhart. You shaped my humor in such great ways.
God bless Bob Newhart. A Chicago and American treasure. Thank you for everything sir.
Rest in peace, Mr. bob Newhart.🙏💔🙏
RIP CHICAGO BOB!
Big Bang Theory wishes it could be as smart
And the childhood memories come flooding in.. I remember that I was supposed to be asleep by the time this show aired so I'd curl up on the top of the stairs listening to this opening while my parents were down in the TV room watching. What a great feeling. I wish I could go back. I miss my mom.
That is so nice and made my day...
💜
Same. I was 7 in 1972 and I liked the theme music. So I’d get out of bed and watch from a distance. Did the same for Maude, Mash, etc.
@@map3384 Great time for classic TV.
Same
1972 year after my father died. Sometimes I come here just to hear this great theme song and it's like I'm 8 years old again and my mom is watching this while I'm listening from my bed safe and secure when the world was so small and simple and she made sure of it. I miss you mom
Same.
Me, too. I turned 8 in the fall of 1972 and was an avid watcher of "The Bob Newhart Show."
Rest in peace, Bob, and thank you for making my dad laugh. I remember this intro in the 70s and my dad enjoying your show every week.
"Hi, Bob" one last time.
RIP Mr. Newhart
GOD, Suzanne in this this show, in her late 30s and early 40s, was just STUNNING. A stone cold fox at the absolute height of her beauty. And to think that a guy who looked like Bob Newhart could come home to that every evening … the world is just NOT fair!!
It gave us all hope!
Yes it is. Bob was awesome he deserved her. 🙂💕
I always liked how the music transitions from being busy in the morning to relaxing on his way home. Short, but effective piece!
I remember when Raul Julia was on a episode of The Bob Newhart show back in 1973 . I was surprised and. proud since he was my uncle . RIP Raul Julia.
A great, much missed actor!😢 0:48 And for you, family!
In my voice actor wheelhouse, I hold a special place for a Raul Julia sounding read whenever a part that calls for a Spanish accented English reads is sent my way. He was a class act, and a magnificent actor. Gracias y bendiciones Raul!!
It's not just that this opening is great (which it is), it's that it re-orders my synapses to something resembling 50 years ago. RIP
As a little kid I found this intro fascinating the way it switched back and forth from soft piano sounds to crashing drums and blaring trumpets. A classic
My grandparents (especially my grandpa) loved Bob Newhart and would often watch reruns of this and his other show Newhart. I was a 90s kid and it kills me finding out Bob just passed. Hopefully he's resting in paradise still making everyone laugh. We'll miss you, Bob.
Yeah, just got a news flash, Bob Newhart, has died 😢.....R I.P. 🙏
childhood memories......
Thanks for Good Work Bob, The Bob Newhart Show was a Classic. I used to enjoy with my Grandmother. Those were good times. Rest in Peace Bob Newhart, you've earned Your Place Amongst the Stars yet again 🕊
We lost a true icon today. Rest in peace, Mr. Newhart. You've brought so much joy to my life and millions of others'.
I like that relaxing center part of the theme. It all reminds me of the laid back 70's - the earthy oranges, yellows and browns and all that wood. No technology to think about just human stuff.
Heavy Vacation Don't forget the avocado green, especially mixed with the orange as seen in the Brady Bunch kitchen.
I would trade today's tech for that simplicity again!
In a heartbeat!
@@fscap811 And the kitchen in BEWITCHED.
RIP, Bob. I think he brings back the best of memories for a lot of us.
Ladies and Gentlemen, all my Chicago brothers and sisters, we lost a legend today! Rest in Peace Bob! Next time I go to Navy Pier, I'll walk up to you by the lake and sit with ya! 🕊️😇🫡
This New Yorker is grieving with you. 😢
@@tracymorgan5386 🤝
So glad I grew up in the 60's and 70's. Television, music, and life in general seemed so enchanting compared to 2021, I was 12 in 1972.
So glad I grew up in the mid 90s with parents who thought it was the mid 70's.
FUN FACT: The building they live in here (:52) is just SE of the corner of Thorndale and Sheridan, and right underneath this building, JUST out of view of the camera shot- is a public beach- George Lane beach. So where is is walking- he would be walking over sand. Just feet to his left is the lake. All of the balconies on this building look directly down on this beach. Spent my lunch hour there today, in fact.
Love this!!
My mom used to live on Sheridan, so she used to live near that building.
To this day, Chicagoans are annoyed that he gets on the L which stops nowhere near that building near Lake Michigan......the train is 55 blocks away
I live next door. The station he is exiting at is Isabella... IN WILMETTE.
The city of Chicago loved the association it had with the show. The Bob Newhart show was ultimately commemorated with a statue of Newhart in character as Dr. Hartley, seated and facing an empty couch, as if conducting a therapy session in his office. The statue was temporarily installed in front of 430 North Michigan Avenue, the building used for exterior establishing shots of Hartley's office. The statue is now permanently located in the sculpture park adjacent to Chicago's Navy Pier entertainment complex.
And now it's way out at the east end of Navy Pier, by itself.
Makes me think of my grandma watching this on the kitchen counter tv every Sunday night. We thought those times would never change and then poof 2021! Rest in peace 70s rest in peace grandma 💜❤️
What great memories Kenneth. That was my night at my grandma's. What a night of classic tv. Odd couple, MTM,bob newhart. And Carol Burnett. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing how beautiful those old, stone buildings are compared to the modern eyesores.
Anyway, miss you, Bob Newhart. You were a gem. RIP.
So glad to see I was not the only teen in love with Suzanne Pleshette: this show was the perfect storm of sitcoms: excellent actors, writers, directors and laugh-out-loud comedy, with a killer theme song.
I agree with you 110%
No wonder Bob hurried home! Suzanne Pleshette was hot!
@@jamesperry2322 Yes, and there was many others. Maureen McCormick, Lynda Carter, Susan Dey, Lindsay Wagner, Farrah Fawcett Majors and many more!!
Gotta admit -- among the many reasons I looked forward to when "Bob Newhart" came on was just gazing upon that gorgeous face belonging to Suzanne Pleshette. The show itself was a treasure trove of talent, and the vibe was sophisticated, which I liked. The writing was superb and Newhart's deadpan delivery, you got that feeling that he was the only sane person in the room -- except when he was with Suzanne Pleshette. She oozed class and brains.
MADLY in love with Suzanne pleshette!
Rest in Peace, Bob Newhart.
Thank you for your comedy.
I always wanted to just melt into the TV on this opener. I was six when it came on the air. I watched it with my dad. I only have certain memories watching TV from early childhood. This is one of my earliest.
RIP to a LEGEND- Bob Newhart
All in the family at 8, M.A.S.H (and for a short time The Jeffersons) at 8:30, The Mary Tyler Moore Show at 9, The Bob Newhart Show at 9:30 and Carol Burnett finishing out the night at 10. When was the last time you had a line up like that on SATURDAY NIGHT? We don't have real classic and timeless comedies today so looking back on this stuff is both satisfying and heartbreaking.
kendall rivers That's a killer lineup!!!!!
Because of that stellar Saturday night lineup, restaurants and bars weren't really busy between 7,8 to 10,11--depending on your time zone--which lasted for a number of years. So many people opted to stay home and watch TV on what was traditionally a big date night and profitable for assorted businesses.
Saturday night TV is a wasteland anymore.
M*A*S*H was on Monday at 9pm.@@msr1116
Said it for decades...best lineup of sitcoms ever on TV
When I visited Chicago, I could hear the upbeat part of the Bob Newhart intro as I was walking in The Loop. Then it switched to the mellow part when I hopped on the L to go back to my hotel near O'Hare.
Great music so Mello🤣
Newhart invented saying "Hello" when answering the phone. He was the first.
Now everyone's doing it.
First, RIP to him.
And secondly, if he invented it, what did people say previously when first answering the phone?
@@smill1985 They used to say, "I have picked up the receiver and am listening. Please commence speaking when you are ready." Thank you for saving us countless hours of unnecessary tedium, Bob!
Just today, I've reacquainted myself with this show. I was 10 in 1972, and wow, this is a reminder of what we had... and lost. My, Ms. Pleshette was a beauty.
Old time 70's show/ theme. I could nearly cry listening to this. It was all such a different world back then. Now we know when things happen instantly. It might be better but all it does is make you more anxious. There was bliss in not having instant information. Just that easy 70's jazz. (Sigh)
@roquefortifies(opener): As a child of the 70s I wholeheartedly agree.
I too wholeheartedly agree, guys! I remember I was just a youngster still. Reminds me of my father going to his job in the 70's too! Ahh, memories! Simpler times!
I feel you precisely!
Thorndale Beach Apartments. I often go past this, and the theme starts automatically in my head and stays for hours. I imagine Bob walking out with his coat, hat, and briefcase.
That's how i remember my hometown Chicago when my family left to California in 1976. I went back for the fist time as an adult last year and fell in love with my home city. Gorgeous town.
Chicago is great . . . in the spring, summer , and fall. My cousin attended dental school at Northwestern and recalls going to his car which had been parked on the top level of a parking garage all day. He found the vehicle encased in ice (as opposed to snow.)
Lived here 50 years now and still love it except for the politicians
Depends what part of Chi-Town you at. You probably from the suburbs .
Come to the South West , BOTY , it's a warzone homie !.
@@charlestonchanming9251 Stop voting for Democrats.
His commute must be puzzling to you then. He crosses the river like 4 times for no apparent reason, then gets off the train 55 blocks from his apartment.
RIP Bob Newhart. Always in Our Hearts.
I remember as a little kid liying in bed and hearing TV intro themes like this one coming from the living room and I'd know what my folks were watching.
Me too! I especially recall Mary Tyler Moore theme playing. But this one is one of my favorites for sure!
That's funny, that is the exact same memory I have as well, I was way to young to stay up and watch these shows so that is all I heard was the music while lying in bed, , but it is a good memory because my Parents where still alive as well
Great classic TV theme.I know I'd be steppin' pretty fast through Chicago if I had Suzanne Pleshette to come home to!
Noonie Manuel I would work from my home office. She had the sexiest voice
@Noonie Manuel(open): Only recently, because of watching it often with my two daughters when they were younger, I've taken in video clips from the 2007(or 2008) Disney movie *Enchanted,* featuring Patrick Dempsey(from the *Grey's Anatomy* show) and Amy Adams in the lead roles. I've been thinking... wouldn't it be something if these two could do some kind of modern takeoff on this Bob Newhart series?
Home to Emily. Which is the name of the tune.
Yes, she was a doll!!!
Suzanne Pleshette was a doll😛
I watched this show when I was 6 or 7. I didn't understand the adult content but I still loved the show. Now I enjoy watching the reruns on MeTV and viewing it through adult eyes this time. In a way, it's like reliving the 70s but as an adult.
Rest In Peace, Bob Newhart. Thank you! ❤
This made me love Chicago before I even knew what it was. RIP Bob
Thanks, Bob, RIP... I'm in my 40th year as a counseling psychologist. This show aired while I was in Jr. High. Bob was my inspiration. Loved this show and all of his work from the telephone skit to BBT appearances. Humor heals...
Just started watching this on Hulu. The show is almost half a century old, but because it focuses on person-to-person interaction, and not some contrived plot or gimmick, it is still relatable. If anything, the old clothes, L trains, furnishings show that despite some superficial changes, some comedic challenges will always remain. As others have noted - the theme music is terrific, very 70s.
The great Bob Newhart is still here. He's 90 and still going strong.
God bless him!
he is 93 now
Just passed. RIP Bob.
That opening piano riff always reminds me of the opening of "Close to You" by Carpenters. That was a hit a couple of years before.
You're right
RIP Bob. WHAT a classic and GOOD throwback.........oh man, nostalgia.......thanks for EVERYTHING Bob, AND the laughs lol Godspeed...........
Back when times were simpler. RIP Bob Newhart.
Yep. Before all this woke trash that we now see on most current tv shows
I like this Newhart show over the later one.
Scott Lowman. Me too.
Oh, c'mon - everyone is supposed to love Larry, Daryl and Daryl - (but I never really did).
Me too. We won't see the likes of this again on network TV. Peter Bonerz who played Jerry Robinson said in an interview that he doubts a show like this would have ever been picked up today, simply because Bob and Emily had no kids. It goes to show that American sitcoms have really gotten so lame.
@@QuadMochaMatti I like Daryl and his other brother Daryl
Totally agree.
I always liked watching the show except I wish that I remembered it when I was at least 5 years old. Thank you for all the comedy you have given and will do the same up in heaven.
That bassline... oh my god!!! He's killing!!!
I don't think 70's bass sounds will ever be duplicated...sadly.
LOL That was Bootsy Collins on that bass. (J/K!)
I'm pretty sure that is Jim Hughart on bass. And yes, it is badass.
I thought it was Carol Kaye?
@@droz1000 -- don't know for sure, but comparing the sound to other Kaye tunes, and it sounds like her -- especially Mel Torme, Games People Play. She's driving the tune... great to hear!
0:19 Six-year-old me *jamming out* in front the big screen TV in the ‘90s watching Nick at Nite.
I just love that piano 🎹 & that 🎺 💯 Bob Newhart is in NAVY PIER💯 a statue of him sitting on a chair with his vacant couch that you can make believe that you are his client 💯 that's in Chicago 💯
Bob had a good life, at least it appeared so. He always made me laugh. Thanks for the laughs, Bob
His trip to and from work has always thrown me, it impossible, of course today it would make a good Fitbit commercial, Bob get his steps in before and after work.
For those people who loved Chicago in the 1970s & early 1980s -- before it began its long, discouraging downward spiral into criminality, lawlessness & violence -- this opening sequence is highly evocative & nearly magical.
chicago is an awesome city today. with a lower crime rate than most cities, and much higher livability as well.
@@l.matthewblancett8031 Having spent 4 years as a graduate student in Hyde Park (likely before you were born), I'm a Chicago booster, Mr Blancett. However, I can read. Here's an assessment of the crime in 2023 up to early April (with citation)...
"...For one, 2,169 motor vehicle theft cases are a lot for only 100 days in a year. It represents a 165% rise compared to 2022. In addition, the rate was 349% more than in 2019.
Robbery cases are up by 26%
Burglary and breakings increased by 11%
Theft is up by 24%
Aggravated battery cases went up by 31%
Cases of criminal sexual assault climbed by 12%
The only solace is that the Homicide and murder rates have reduced by 9% compared to 2022. However, the murder rate increased by 78% compared to 2019 because there were only 18 reported cases by this time in 2019."
Perhaps the crime rate in Chicago is lower than NYC, LA, Houston & Detroit, but I would not want my elderly mother to be walking in most parts of Chicago after dark.
There are several different locations at which one can find this sort of info on the frequency of Chicago crime; this is the one I used:

@@l.matthewblancett8031😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's quite silly. Every city has bad areas.
@@lenblack1462 Yes, Mr black, and I lived on the South Side on the periphery of one of the "bad areas" (to use your expression) for nearly 4 years -- possibly before you were born. However, how does that relate to my comment? And, what do you find silly about the comment?
RIP -- Thanks for all the great memories !!!
RIP...many good memories watching reruns of this show with my dad on Nick at Nite. Bob was an American treasure.
I didn’t want anything to do with any of these shows. I wanted my cartoons in the 90’s, little did I know about 20-30 years later I’d come to love and appreciate these types of shows.
Bob Newhart's type of gentle deadpan humor is extinct in this day and age. R.I.P. Bob, there won't be another like you. The humor of Bob's best friend Don Rickles, who might have thought was radically than different than Bob's, had that same ability to self-deprecating too, with a bite. You two are sorely missed in age that desperately needs to laugh.
With shocking regularity, one of the iPhones in my office will ring with the "old school" ringtone that many of us at a certain age would call "the sound of a telephone before telephones were mostly used to send people nude photographs". After it rings, I will, without fail, say, to no one in particular, "Hello" in my best Bob voice and then have the theme song stuck in my head for the rest of the day. My coworkers don't understand, but that may be because most of them were born around the time I was graduating out of high school.
Watching this show takes me back being a little kid again watching this with my grandparents and laughing right along with them at the jokes. I always get this theme mixed up with the Mary Tyler Moore Show for some reason.....but excellent tv shows.....I can't say it enough, I still wished they made shows like these.
Same here. I would pretend to not be able to sleep on the nights when Bob Newhart was on, then I'd curl up between my parents and watch it with them. But you are right----they don't make TV shows like this anymore.....and I wish that they did. Good family comedies.
Found Taxi on hulu....there goes my evenings for the next few weeks, haha. I used to watch that just to see Andy Kaufman be a goof.
Bob Newhart, Mary Tyler Moore, and Carol Burnett were my Saturday night entertainment through most of my adolescence, they're almost like extended family to me. Glad I grew up when TV was so much better.
I used to watch it with my grandparents, too. I'd visit them on Saturday. All In The Family, MASH,, Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart and Carol Burnett. Best lineup ever.
I was only a toddler when these shows first started airing, but my parents watched them every week. As I became a little older, I began to understand them. Bob Newhart cracked me up. And I loved MASH until Trapper John left the show. All in the Family reminded me of my best friend's family. But I couldn't figure out the difference between Mary Tyler Moore and Rhoda.
From the view of a telephone tech I always loved this introduction. The phone rings and Bob answers it. The button is on line 4 and not lite up. 4 lines in a single office when Bob did not get that many phone calls. Yikes, I would have thought 2 would be plenty
Saturday nights..great tv...I'm old, this theme song makes me sad now. I don't know why.
I understand, it makes me melancholy. I guess I’m just longing for a simpler time and a time when my parents were still here, young and healthy.
I have cherished memories of watching Bob -- and the Mary Tyler Moore Show, too -- with family in my youth. A lot of the jokes probably went over my young head at the time, but I was aware enough to know these were shows to plan on catching week after week. There's nothing on air for kids to watch today that compares in class or content.
Back in the day, I used to watch the show every week with my parents. However, as soon as the name of actor Peter Bonerz flashed on the screen, I was forced to suppress a torrent of middle school giggles!
That brave, brave man, making it this far in Hollywood with a name like that. Bless him.
@@PC2000 Not as brave as Peter Marshall's son. Peter Marshall's real last name was LaCock and his son was a Major League baseball player and never changed it like his father...played his whole career as Pete LaCock.
My heart skipped a beat, seeing Suzanne! I was seven when this show started...I knew I liked women at that moment..❤️❤️❤️🤗
Ahhh...a real man!
I'm 21 years old and I adore this theme music more than any popular song since before I was even born. Depending on what generation you come from, that either makes me awesome or exceptionally lame.
Kyoko Soryu I vote awesome
Agreed . Has such a warm feel to that music .
Well I was around for these TV theme songs the first time, and to me that makes you awesome...you have great taste
You are exceptional....and don't ever let anybody call you lame!! If you're lame...at least you have us to be lame with!
Vote awesome. Haters are lame. Old shows are better than the new crap that's on now.
Any time I hear a real old fashioned phone ring, I think of this..
I have the “classic old phone” ringtone on my iPhone for almost everything.
This song is etched into my brain, that phone ringing then the piano, I loved that theme and the show was great, I was 11 years old.
I kind of figured that Mr. Newhart's life in this world would be coming to an end due to his age and the fairly recent passing of his wife. It was expected, but you can never prepare for how it actually feels until it happens. But what a life! His legacy and body of work will be something to treasure for years to come. RIP
Loved the trumpet at 35 sec.
RIP Bob. The music and shots of this opening sequence were burned into my head as a little kid. I knew it was a big city (too young to know it was Chicago) and this little montage made me want to live there because it looked so cool! lol! Thanks again Bob!
Man these were the good old days ; a well made filling cabinet was considered high tech.
We're all here today to remember a legend. Rest in peace, Bob Newhart. 🕊️🕊️🕊️
I remember this tune as a kid in the early 80's on the floor in the Family Room playing with my LEGO's while my mom watched it..Dad was at work doing his normal second shift at the railroad yard as an Electrician..Gosh I would LOVE to go back to that night, with my mom on the sofa and me showing her what creation I made with my LEGO's, usually it was a camper or motorhome as I always loved them...Such simple times..Guess I'm lucky I grew up where my mom could be home with me and only dad had to work..He did have a pretty good job then..I was told once that back then he was getting over $25 an hour as an Electrician with Seaboard Coastline Railroad...back in 78 that was good pay I guess..I never wanted that's for sure!
Ahhh..our memories are what keep us sane in today's crazy world.
Bob is now reunited with Suzanne, Marcia, and Bill in heaven. Only Peter Bonerz left of the main cast.
Rest In Paradise Bob & God Speed.
One of many great, yet underrated shows of the 70s, and best instrumental theme ever!
Underrated? The Bob Newhart Show was very popular and was very much liked by television critics.
He's won 8 Emmy awards, including three on 'Newhart'. But I'm surprised he hasn't won any for this show.
Watching this quality show for the very first time having not grown up in this country thanks to hulu.
RIP Bob Newhart!!😢😢🌹🌹🌹. I’ll miss the laughs!!📺📺📺
Shout Factory,
It's a shame these videos are getting pulled. A Golden time by Golden people.
....I know he had nothing to do with this, but this theme SCREAMS 'Burt Bacharach', and when he passed yesterday, I IMMEDIATELY thought of this theme...and his LONG stretch of influence, on Music....we're SERIOUSLY gonna miss that Man....
wow..this brings back memories of my parents watching this weekly
We used to play this song at band practice when I was in high school (1973 graduate). The name of the theme is "Home to Emily". I was 1st trombone in band. I still play today. (Jan Griffiths).
Ah, those old style Chicago 'L' cars, now long-gone. Such a distinctive and profound roar they made approaching and departing station stops whenever they traversed the subways.
R.I.P. to the comedy and and acting legend born George Robert Newhart.
Can we take a moment to appreciate the opener? I can't recall any other series doing this... yet it fits for Bob Newhart. RIP, sir.
A great television show. The theme song comes to mind every now and then! Take care everyone.
Rest in Peace Bob Newhart; now the angels can laugh.
I remember watching this show when I was 7 years old in Brooklyn. My mom made me Cheerios. Im 56 now. Beings back great memories. I miss Brooklyn but living in Florida is very nice now 😉
When I was little I would walk in to see my mother laughing at this program and would always ask "what show is this?" I could never remember!
One of my all time favorite shows. Thank you for the laughs Bob!
Loved this theme and the show! I am 63 and remember the show first run with my mom!
There is nothing Bob Newhart that I am not in love with
Nice to see some 1970s vintage Chicago.
Especially Bob getting on the "L"
Most shows back then were set in NYC or LA its nice to see chicago for once.
