Benson is an American television sitcom which aired from September 13, 1979, to April 19, 1986, on ABC.

However, Benson eschewed the soap opera format of its parent show for a more conventional sitcom structure. The series was created by Susan Harris, and produced by Witt/Thomas/Harris Productions.

Opening titles to the 2nd season of Witt-Thomas-Harris sitcom BENSON, starring the Emmy-winning Robert Guillaume. Series was a spin-off from SOAP (1977-81), also created by Susan Harris, and followed the sharp-witted butler Benson Dubois as he became head of household affairs for a US Governor. My ITV region, Ulster Television (UTV) showed Benson in a post-News at Ten slot on Friday nights in the early 1980s. These titles are the ones I remember best. Nifty theme tune by the great George Aliceson Tipton (1932-2016). BENSON is copyright Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Seasons 1 & 2 are available on DVD.

The opening credits and theme music from the hit show "Benson." Lots more to come, request your favorite.
Loved the show Benson. Robert Guillaume was supremely talented and Rene Auberjonois went on to do Star Trek DS9.

I've been after a copy of this episode since I first saw it in the 80s. While surfing around for it, I noticed that there are plenty of others who are touched by this clip - so here's an early Christmas present to all of them. I've made it the length it is to provide a build-up to everyone's favourite part - Robert Guillaume singing "O Holy Night" - still gives me goosebumps when I hear it. Enjoy! It cost me money to obtain the episode, so do me a favour and throw a few coins into your favourite charity box if you like it. PS. I'm no lawyer, but I read somewhere that the Berne Act means there's no copyright issue - in case anyone was wondering :)
