Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
A musical comedy that threw away its theme song every year and wrote a new one, each arguing with the last about whether the word in the title is fair.
Season 1
33sPosted by Rachel Bloom's own channel. A bright ensemble number that keeps stopping to object to being called crazy — "the situation's a lot more nuanced than that."
Season 2
29s"I'm Just a Girl In Love." The defence drops and the song simply insists love excuses everything, staged as a 1940s dream ballet. Also from Bloom's channel.
Season 3
45s"You Do/You Don't Want To Be Crazy." The third year turns the word over properly, and the sequence turns with it — the staging is a horror film by the end.
Season 4
54s"Meet Rebecca!" The last one is about the first three: a cheerful introduction to a character the audience has watched for four years, cut off before it can finish the sentence. Four seasons, four completely different sequences — one of the cleanest examples in this catalogue of a show using its titles as an argument with itself.
