- Inspector Gadget
Composer: Shuki Levy, Haim Saban
Year: 1983
Production companies: DIC Entertainment, Nelvana, Field Communications, FR3.
Inspector John Gadget is a famous cyborg policeman with a seemingly endless amount of gadgets he can summon by saying "Go-Go-Gadget" then the gadget's name. The word "Gadget" is actually part of the name, as hinted at in some episodes. Although he has all this equipment, Gadget is ultimately incompetent and clueless (in a manner similar to the Inspector Clouseau character of the Pink Panther series), and overcomes obstacles and survives perilous situations by sheer good luck, with help from his faithful niece Penny and intelligent dog Brain who both must secretly help him solve each case. Even his gadgets often malfunction, which Gadget often deals with by exclaiming that he needs to get them fixed.
Lyrics:
Inspector Gadget
Whoo-hoo

This song randomly popped in my head. Man my childhood was the best.
I didn't even watch this. I was too young but damn this theme is a legendary one.
go go gadget nuclear bomb
Childhood memories love it
Same Bro
same
I swear this is one of the catchiest theme songs of all time.
Not this time Gadget!
This and the ducktales theme song
I like the “Go Gadget Go!” part
@@sarab3888 rescue rangers, ducktales, tiny toons.... the 80s/90s was a true golden age for cartoons and their banger theme songs
People talk about how new anime have the best opening, but legends know nothing will ever come close to this
This song means a lot to me because weeks before my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and died a few months later, I walked in on him watching reruns of this late at night laughing and loving it. I then not only loved Inspector Gadget for childhood memories growing up enjoying it, but now because it's one of the last memories I had of my dad before I lost him.
Your dad sounds like a great dude to hang out with.
@@thelastpheonix He was... :(
That’s very touching. May he sleep in peace
@@steveph5155 Thanks! 😢
I’m so sorry for your lost John. I’m glad inspector gadget brought something for your dad and yourself ❤️
This guy is responsible for 45 years of Nickelodeon's longevity.
Wouldn't it be 40 years
@@m56214 I meant they contributed to Nickelodeon's 45 year history.
Then, in 1999, Disney gave us a live action Inspector Gadget movie starring Matthew Broderick, AKA Simba from The Lion King (1994).

Except that movie is terrible@@joshmontemayor6098
Who else is here after Remembering like 5 seconds of the Theme song??
✋🏻
😐🖐
Nope....I remembered the entire thing. Inspector gadget was my jam...
Me
🤚
The "go, Gadget, go" bridge with the car transforming always gives me chills.
same here
That bridge is everything! From the horn stabs to the woody harmonies! 😍
So I’m not the only one haha
OH GOD WHY AM I LIKE THIS
That's my favorite part of the song 😁
This captivated me as a child. It's still permanently burned on my brain.
Same here
Yup same. I also remember the main bad guy having a creepy voice but I don't remember his name. Something related with claw I think.
@@johnins0mnia584Dr. Claw I think
@@johnins0mnia584 all I ever wanted to see was his face
The composition of this song , plus the types of sounds chosen for the instruments, plus how each section mirrors themes that are repeated in the show (notice how when he opens the safe a portion of the Chief's theme plays for a moment) make this opening an incredibly intelligent use of the limited song assets for this show that sets the tone for the entire experience. Shuki Levy is one of the GOATs.
I just realized that he's using his middle finger to light the tunnel. Inspector Gadget has been giving us the finger for decades
ajiweaijwea.. so true!
He’s a meanie
I don't think he's aware of it. We all know that he's dumb enough to do a thing like that by accident and be completely oblivious when people feel insulted.
O-O
He isn't using his middle finger. Her is using his forth finger. X
This song has absolutely no need to be this legendary, but I'm happy nothing will ever come close.
Let me introduce you to the pink panther theme
Awesome things frequently have no need of being awesome...they just are! :)
@@stxrryy._.nxghht6740 man no kidding, that was great too!
the only song that i can think of that kind of gives me the same vibe is the pink panther theme song
You've never played Buck Bumble, have you?
"Go, Gadget, go" is the best part.
I was born in '85 and mainly saw Gadget in reruns. This theme has been stuck in my head for 31 years now, even when it disappeared from the airwaves. It's just magnificent. As an adult, I find Inspector Gadget to be a little predictable and formulaic, but the enjoyment I get when revisiting it rightly crushes those more grown up thoughts under it's boots in a way I just can't deny. Inspector Gadget is a ton of fun and a treasured piece of my past. Few things can even come close to matching it for me. Well done, Dic.
Inspector Gadget was the best
Now in my adulthood I can realize how creepy it was that they had a child blurt out the name of this production company. at the end of each episode.
When that "Go Gadget Go" part hits.........HOLY SHIT!
Love that part !
SAME
I know right i slaps hard bruh
Hell yeah
Epic AF!
I never thought I would be watching this as an adult and appreciate the “go gadget go” part this much. We simply brushed off how much that slapped when we were kids
I said the same thing. It's such a strong point
I always thought it slapped
This is my favorite part of the song!
Sounds like it could have been from a 70s Disco Song.
I recorded this 🔥🔥 on vhs as a kid. That was my favorite part, cmon son where have you been!!!!
I remember being obsessed with this show when i was little.
I'm 15 now, this is crazy.
You're 15 and you're already having thoughts like these?
...y'know what, I could say the same about me from a few years ago. And me from today.
...nevermind. :/
You're still little.
Hahaha, I remember being obsessed with inspector gadget as a 4 year old. I’m 28 now haha and I still love him!
@@RepublicTrooper125 28? You do know this show came out in 1982, way before you were born right? 😆
@@edwardgaines6561 yes and I can still catch reruns on tv. Plus the movie was coming out in 99 so I remember seeing the movie and still being a fan of the show too.
As a adult, this theme GOES SO HARD now! I APPRECIATE the time that went into this production and I want to say THANKYOU- for making my childhood AWESOME!!
I have never watched a single episode of this show but this song is so DAMN catchy
Me either lol
@@B4-S1 hi basil from omori.
@@B4-S1 hi basil you still depresso?
this theme song is kinda meh (I am not trying to hate on this)
Same
0:50 the original apple watch
;)
I was watching this in prison a year ago and my cell nate said thecsame thing
Dick Tracy in 1940's comic books and early James Bond movies in the 1960's had a video phone watch and Inspector Gadget is a mix of Tracy , Bond , Inspector Clouseau and the main character in the spy spoof Get Smart .
@@robertclark2253 The main character in the spy spoof Get Smart
(Don Adams) did the voice of Gadget
I knew the main guy from Get Smart voiced Gadget but just couldn't remember his name so thanks for the info and have a like .
I can totally hear my childhood calling me…man I miss this show!!!
This show has one of the most marvelous concepts ever for a cartoon that you could practically make a Looney Tunes short off of it.
A detective robot who is completely broken in his limitless accessibility yet is absolutely incompetent in every way and his little niece and dog have to keep him from danger without being acknowledged by him is so brilliant.
One of the best 80s properties never forgotten.
He's basically a robot version of Inspector Clousseau
He's not a robot. He's a cyborg.
@@paolotorres8537 Well, the show WAS inspired by Pink Panther, the original movie.
Hands down the 80s and 90s had the best cartoons!
(Screw that both decades rocked)
trifeloco I watched this in 2005
yeah, they were more creative back then
This was the best cartoon of my childhood!
Probably a lot of the stuff they did back then hadn’t been touched on, and lot of it was really new. Now it’s just rehash everything cos it was amazing back then.

Still a bop in 2022
AIN'T IT THO 👌🏾🙌🏾✊🏾🤣🤣🤣🤣
Facts
2023*
Still a bop in 2023
Same over ere in 2023
I still remember as a kid in early elementary school, Inspector Gadget always came on at 8:30, and I would always catch the opening right before I had to leave for school.
This song slapped way harder than it should have.
Classic banger.
*Go Gadget Gooo* 🕵️♂️
Possibly the best show intro of all time.

"Democratic League of Kosovo" 😂

Was researching for a school essay, somehow I got here......
Thats not a bad thing
Congratulations, I don't know how you did it.
lmaoo same
same here haha I randomly thought of Inspector Gadget while doing homework
A cool twist of outcomes there 😁✌🏻
This theme slap hard still to this day lol
This is one of THE BEST cartoon themes ever! Right at 0:41 when his van turns into that killer police car… “Go Gadget go…” 🚨🚓
Don't know how but I'm a 2000s kid and I remember seeing this on TV
There are/have been stations that primarily show old cartoons, you could've watched it on one of them.
Keep living the good life, kid.
Fox Kids aired Inspector Gadget all over Europe throughout the 2000s.
@@AlexSnow96 in Canada this aired on a variety of different channels over the years Global YTV and Teletoon Retro.
I know that Boomerang aired Gadget Boy from like 2008-10 and I think with Inspector Gadget
then: WOWZERS!!!
Now: B R O W N B R I C K S
Brown bricks in MINECRAP
I enjoy building BROWN HOUSES with BROWN BRICKS
IN M I N E C R A P
Go Go Gadget Brown Bricks!
Timeless classic music, right up there with Mozart, Beethoven and Vivaldi
Grieg actually
this is one of the only "kids show" intros i can think of that actually has a really good drum and bass line
I should blast this out my subwoofer. Have everybody in traffic feeling the nostalgia lol
Xmen did too
Yes!!!
Always will be hilarious how Claw thinks it's Gadget that always foils him when in reality it's actually a little girl and a dog that do all the actual work and beat him while Gadget never actually has a clue what the hell is going on LMAO!
Loved that
Right
😭
My theme song when my wife is looking around our apartment to see what to get rid of and donate.

YOUR stuff ONLY, probably. NEVER hers, right? "Clutter" (noun): "stuff that's not mine."
Almost 40 years ago this iconic gem came out.
Is it me or did the best shows go above and beyond for the intro? It did not need to be this much of a bop but you will always remember it
Huge shout out to Don Adams (Get Smart!) for doing the voice of this amazing cartoon character.
I never realized that was Maxwell Smart!
How can anyone had a boring childhood life with all these cantoons from 80s
How can he be the kid when he posted this 2 years ago?
Why the hell anyone liked this commnet this cartoon was really fun and funny. But modern one is boring..
@@Unknown-tq7jj Just because a motherfucker likes Inspector Gadget doesn't mean a motherfucker can't like Bugs Bunny you cartoon elitist.
I love cantoons. Sometimes I drink out of my canteen while watching cantoons.
This is why everyone is depressed. Their country didn't receive all the stuff that countries like US, UK, Japan, France, Italy etc enjoyed. Thank God for Internet.
I was practicing a bassline and it sounded familiar: because it was similar to this amazing childhood classic theme. Such a great piece, simple but perfect.
I'm going to be 40 in a few years and yet here i am listening 🎧 to a cartoon theme song from my childhood
Feels like the good old days 😂
One of the greatest cartoon theme songs!
The key change at 0:38 with the car change used to make me so hyper as a kid.
Iconic! A huge hit in Brazil in the 80's and 90's.
One of my favorite cartoons of alltime. Gadget was so dimwitted😂
The beat goes in as soon as Penny turns to the camera…
All in...
As a kid, I was vibing to this. When I became older I thought this was cringe and now vibing again
the word cringe is cringe
@@GawrGurasBathTubPizza using a cringe word like cringe to call the word cringe, cringe? That's kinda cringe bro.
@@celestemunda7143 my 2 brain cells cannot comprehend this
Great now cringe sounds weird
@@celestemunda7143 using a cringe word like cringe to call someone cringe for using a cringe word like cringe to call the word cringe, cringe? That’s kinda cringe bro.
even though the 80s were infamous on toy-driven shows, this one stood out as a genuinely good show, I discovered IG from an old ipad game where u could unlock episodes in-game, and then my dad told us about his childhood watching inspector gadget. It's a pretty cool show
“Go, gadget, go!”
Aghhh best part
I’m 40’ years old I had this song playing in my head and I just had to play it whirl driving boy the memories🙂 and also the beat goes hard while playing in the car Go Gaget go!!!!
I will b40In a couple of yrs.
thanks david
@@hug3461 no prob.
This makes me wanna explore a cave with a two-tailed fox
Lemme guess. Yuzoboy remix?
dumb zoomers?
Miles Tails Prower ?
Mystic cave zone moment
@memp yup, ig Tails started working for inspector gadget🤷♀️
Happy 40 years to one of the best theme songs to come out
SO MANY MEMORIES
Awesome stereo quality
This is like the stuff evil super villians listen to to start their day
Born in 1983....loved this
Awesome song growing up watching in the 80's
No one's childhood never dies
Saban/Levy's music skills are so understated. Why hire someone to do a theme song when you can make a banger like this yourself?
It was actually only Shuki Levy. Haim saban was the businessman(Record Licenser) and Shuki Levy was the composer
DLK
@@n8dagr890 Shuki Levy is the unsung HERO of cartoons.
You should watch cities of gold also a french/japanese production with lysic by shuky levo
They leased out a lot of the song writing to other bands in the area of production. They didn't really write the songs.
The 80's had some of the best taste in TV shows, music and movies.
This is just one example.
I used to watch this back in the 80's as a kid. Man the memories.
Am I the only one who thinks that Mr. Bean + RoboCop = Inspector Gadget ? :D
Ahhh, so much nostalgia. I remember when I would watch this as a toddler
The hugest nostalgia bomb, anyone born 1978-1995 or so should know this theme by heart
My dad was actually born in 1977, and he used to watch that show everyday after school.
The siren gets me every time. Love that shit.
GO, GADGET, GO!!!
I grew up with the cgi show on netflix, and didn't realize what an amazing theme song I missed out on
Heh heh memories.
"I'll get you Gadget, if it's the last thing I do Gadget!!" ^&^ oh to be a kid again.
This show was the best growing up! Watched it every afternoon without fail with my siblings after school
I dont know why but this was in my recommendation thank you UA-cam
algorithm
We had a good childhood, because of awesome shows like this
Man, I really wish my kids would've been a fan of this show like I was when I was their age. I am 39 years old now and I can guarantee that they've never seen a single episode, but I remember it fondly. Even Mayor Quimby...
Uh you mean Chief Quimby right?
This is still one of the best tv show opening songs out there hands down
One time, we left a car show and I was in the back seat of our car. We were cruising home when an early 80s Lotus Esprit pulled up next to us. I kid you not that thing looked so much like the gadget mobile. I was completely hearing the theme song in my head all along. I never forget that image of that car cruising next to us.
I thought it was a Lancia Stratos not gonna lie
And to be honest, the Gadgetmobile kinda looks a little like the DMC DeLorean... Emphasis on "A little."
My boss was singing this 2 days ago and got so happy when I played it to him lol!
Jesus, I havent heard this song in like 25 years haha. Thanks.
As a kid I thought the lyrics say "Gi, Gi, Gi, Gadget."
i’m a 2000s kids but my dad would play his favorite cartoons from his childhood for us... this was always my favorite
Your dad rocks
IM A 2000s kid too and I lovedddd this my dad would always watch this with me I love thisssss
I may be a "Generation Zer", but this gave me SO MUCH NOSTALGIA! I grew up with this show even tho it came out in the 80s. Me and my brother would wait all day just to watch this show. Now this song is stuck in my head again. ;)
its honestly crazy (and great) how long this show has been around for re-runs cuz Im younger gen-z’er myself and remember watching this in the 2010’s and now I sometimes see it on Boomerang when my little cousins are watching tv
HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY TO MY FAVORITE CHILDHOOD CHARACTER
IN THE 1980'S! GO, GADGET, GO!
It's 2020 and this theme still slaps hard af
I'll slap ur mom ha!
@ryan Washington what
Nostalgia :)
I'm 16, so I wasn't around for this show. My god, those who were, were lucky. This theme is fire.
Who would have thought that we would be listening to this in 2023!! This was brilliant
Was thrilled to see that CBS Access has the entire series. Both seasons.
Such a banger. I love the beginning so much.
This was one of my favorite cartoon shows when I was a kid. My childhood is here. I was always interested in the M.A.D society and DR CLAW.
Now.. at 29 years old.. I realise ... everything in that show is real... except.. there s no inspector gadget. M.A.D is actually the representation of evil, and Dr Claw is the Devil.
I’m OBSESSED with the way the real meat of the music kicks in as he goes up the stairs, it’s so dopamine-inducing 😭
do you ever wonder if inspector gadget is an ancestor of Iron Man.
Edit: Y'all talking about their first airing time. Which doesn't have to fit with when they lived.
I just thought that because inspector gadget had simpler technology than Iron Man's (in my opinion). Also the recent media about Iron Man depicts him living in 21st century, so I'd rather use that info rather than their first appearance in my granpa's comics collection.
Iron Man first appeared in comic books in 1963 20 years before Inspector Gadget appeared Gadget himself was based on a mix of James Bond , Inspector Clouseau and the main character in the spy spoof Get Smart which aired on TV around the same time as Iron Man made his first comic book appearance . So to answer your question Gadget is a possible descendant of Iron Man meaning Gadget is younger than Iron Man .
Inspector Gadget is a cyborg, so maybe he could be related to RoboCop more then Iron Man, at least that is more logical to me! ^.^
Iron Man is way older. Inspecteur Gadget is like a kids' Robocop or Terminator.
Yes lol
Now that you think about it.. maybe Iron Man is Inspector Gadget's cousin?
Omg i just randomly found this and it was so nostalgic to me :D
Inspector gadget dundudn hooo hooo
Gets me every time😀✋
This theme song didn’t deserve to go as hard as it did, it’s such a bop
I miss the 80s & 90s a lot!
0:16 Did anyone ever notice that Gadget’s middle finger is the flashlight? He’s flipp’n the bird!
TMNT FanGirl cuz you could get away with stuff like that on TV back in the day.
2023 and it’s still a bop
I don’t know how you could make a 1 minute song any more perfect than this. Outstanding.
Inspector Gadget totally looks like Inspector Hanshici from Lupin III part 2 episode 54. & both shows have theme songs that only say the protagonist's name.
I can tell I would’ve loved this growing up
the absolute JOY hearing the Inspector Gadget theme song from beginning to end this just gave me cannot be written in words or even in the tears falling down my face... thank you for keeping it PERFECTLY intact all the way to the end... gotta see Gadget fall on his head :)
This is a song u can play on repeat for years and it will never get old
Just listening to this stirs up memories that were way way in the back of my head
