You could be swingin’ on a star…

Okay, bloggers and blogfans. I need your help.

Back in the mid-to-late 80s, there was a sitcom on cable about a young teenage girl who was half alien. She had various powers, such as the ability to freeze time. Sort of a precursor to Sabrina the Teenage Witch, I guess…her father was the alien, and she communicated with him through…oh, I don’t know, some sort of book or box or something that she kept in her bedroom.

This was the theme song:

Would you like to swing on a star?
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?
And be better off than you are?
You could be swingin’ on a star….

Every once in a while, I remember this show, and I cannot for the life of me remember what the name of it was. Someone out there in the blogosphere has to have seen it…
