I have seen one Woolery 'Dating Game' by trade, but it may have a similar theme to the original. The set was based on the old show.

IIRC the late Steve Kaplan re-recorded the classic Dating and Newlywed themes for the 1997-99 seasons of the show. The 1996-97 season of DG and NG weren't faithful to the classic formats and deservedly didn't use the classic themes.

Umm...the 1996 NG used a variation of the NG song. Not what we geeks are familiar with, but you could tell it was based on the NG theme.

There was also that weird version used during the 80s NG.
"They're both Norman Jewison movies, Troy, but we did think of one Jew more famous than Tevye."

Now celebrating his 22nd season on GSF!

The 80s NG theme(not the 50s song Book of Love used in the Rodriguez version)was a updated recording of the classic NG theme by Milon Delugg himself. The 1996 version doesn't exactly stay in one's head.
