Background:
Moonlighting was a series was plagued by production delays and erratic scheduling. Scheduled episodes were often delayed for weeks and reruns
substituted at the last minute. Many in-jokes and short fill-in pieces refer to this and other topical items at the beginning and end of some programs.
Episodes 35-39 were particularly affected by this, and in their original broadcasts contained intros dealing with the slow production pace.

Moonlighting (theme) / Al Jarreau, Lee Holdridge, performed by Al Jarreau.
