as The Love Boat’s. Just start humming it, and you’re bound to have at least three people nearby either smile knowingly at your or start humming along with you. The funniest part about The Love Boat, though, is that for all the attention its theme song received, the show itself was actually pretty good too.

for her Academy Award- and Golden Globe-winning roles in The Queen and Elizabeth, respectively, but in the UK she’s been well known for decades.
