What’s Your Apocalypse Survival Sitcom Title?

[ChrysanthiDream]

Mine would be "Beans, Bandages & Bad Hair Days: The Survival Years." What would the opening theme song be for your apocalypse sitcom? Or better yet, what’s your show called—bonus points for puns!

Pretty sure I’d end up on “Garden Gnomes & Go Bags”—think Golden Girls meets the Walking Dead, but with way more compost jokes. The theme song would definitely have a kazoo solo and way too many references to canned beets. Would anyone else actually watch a show where the big cliffhanger is who smuggled seeds in their sock drawer?

My show would probably be called “Sheltered Shenanigans: The Last Laugh Bunker” and the theme song would absolutely feature a chorus of people trying to harmonize with various half-broken kitchen tools (extra points if the spatula is played like a banjo).

Opening credits would be a montage of folks trying to light a fire with increasingly ridiculous materials (spoiler: nothing works until someone uses an old disco record).

There’s a recurring bit where the theme song changes every episode, because nobody can agree on the lyrics—
