Commercial Madness: Big Love’s New Theme Song

Yes, I admit I do enjoy HBO’s Big Love. I mean, who doesn’t like a little polygamist drama on Sunday nights? But I was shocked this season when I tuned in to find out that they replaced the Beach Boys‘ classic “God Only Knows” with a brand new theme song and opening sequence. I guess [...]
