  Apparently every season has a different cover of this song.

  
  

  I would not know, as I have never seen this show, I just know it has a weirdly great theme song.

  everything about this is familiar, the character designs, the music
  
  i looked up the intro on Youtube (not this song, it had a spoken intro) and it was like, i remember this!  i remember every word of this!
  
  i *also* remember, when i was a kid, being struck by how "serious" and "dark" the song sounded, and how much it jarred with the tone of the show itself

  It's a Canadian show, apparently.

  i think this was on BBC1
  
  a surprising number of BBC children's shows were actually Canadian imports

  For some reason now I'm thinking about Farthing Wood, even though that wasn't Canadian.
