What was the name of that song that played...? (fill in the blanks)

Check out the episode info pages within the episode guides. Everything we know is all in there. You can also check out Felicity Tunes.

Who sings the theme song?

Amy Jo Johnson (Julie). **addendum to this answer: according to Molly, the Hollywood Records soundtrack site states the following: (J.J. Abrams on "The Felicity Theme"): "I wrote the theme song with Larry Klein, an incredible producer, songwriter, and bassist, who has played with everyone from Bob Dylan and Robbie Robertson to Joni Mitchell and Tracy Chapman. It's sung by Judith Owen (Harry Shearer's wife), who is recording an album for Capitol Records. Two weeks before 'Felicity' was to debut, we still didn't have a theme recorded. I'd already recorded my own idea for a theme song, but it didn't feel right, so I called Larry and that was that. Six days later, Keri Russell was a guest on `The Tonight Show,' and the band played the theme song. What a great feeling!"

[EXTRA CREDIT: "Felicity" producer J.J. Abrams is also a musician and songwriter. He often "noodles around" with his friend and fellow amateur player, Andrew Jarecki, the guy who started Moviefone].

So, the real question is, does Amy Jo Johnson sing the song as it is heard each week on the opening credits, or is it Judith Owen, Harry Shearer's wife, crooning away? To be continued...

Who wrote the theme song?

See above.

Is that Madonna?

Uh, no.

You must really like Felicity!

This isn't a question, but I thought I'd throw it in anyway. Basically, I'm a self-absorbed narcissist who enjoys being absolved in the day to day intricacies of interactive technology (translation: I'm a web junkie). And that's the truth.

Why do they keep showing reruns?

The WB is lame! (Alternate answer: It's summer).

Who's Sally?

Sally is a microscopic individual who lives inside of Felicity's tape recorder, but can't be seen by mere mortals. Like Felicity, she feels obligated to obsess over colossal, monumental details. Oh, and she was Felicity's French tutor in high school.

That sounds like Janeane Garofalo.

Although J.G. is not formally credited anywhere, I've received e-mails from people who've sworn on a stack of bibles that it is indeed Janeane.

Do you have any copies of the show on tape or know where I can get tapes?

Sorry, no! There is a site that has episode transcripts, though, if you don't mind "reading" the show off your computer screen.

Do you know how to get in touch with the producers / cast?

The producers are sneaky little people who don't want their e-mail addresses to be known, hiding behind form e-mail letters and hard to access web pages (no, I'm not bitter). As for the cast, check out my cast page, where a cast address is listed somewhere in the vicinity of Burbank...

Is there a Felicity soundtrack?

Yes! It was released May 11, 1999, and should be in your local music stores. Click here for the track listing.
