Answers as they come.
  1.  Have Gun Will Travel (I saw this name in the credits, and that's where I got the idea for this quiz.)
  2. Hill Street Blues (Paula)  It seems there are many more than just 2. Rockford Files (Eden's Husband) Magnum, P.I.G. and many others.

Paula - You got one of them, and it wasn't even one that I knew about. I did some more research and it seems he's a busy boy. He didn't do the Night Court theme, though, according to one site I saw. I forget the name of the guy. You were probably thinking of Markie Post, the blonde with all that hairspray who played the Public Defender.
