TOP FIVE IS ALIVE


“Love is all around, no need to waste it.

You can never tell, why don’t you take it?

You’re gonna make it after all.

You’re gonna make it after all.”

Mary Tyler Moore Show theme



Two themes emerged from the countdown of the most popular quotes in 2018: nostalgia and TV or movie theme songs. This quote hits on both counts.

Popular in the 1970s the Mary Tyler Moore Show has endured as a television situation comedy legend. It airs in reruns to this day. The opening theme song credits, with the star cheerily throwing her hat up in the cold Minnesota air, makes people feel warm and fuzzy and it takes us back to a simpler time. A time we all long for and the show’s main character, Mary Richards, is a friend we could all use. Those warm, fuzzy, friendly feelings pushed this quote all the way up to #5 on the most popular quotes list.
