SHORT TAKES : TV Title Sequence Is MTV Fodder
In a first for television, the title sequence for the new Shadoe Stevens adventure series “Max Monroe: Loose Cannon” has been turned into a music video that will soon be seen on cable’s MTV.
The music video uses the hit single “Tied Up” by the popular European group Yello. The video features Stevens and co-star Bruce Young along with Yello members Boris Blank and Dieter Meier.
“I’m one of Yello’s biggest fans. Yello is inventive, experimental, intelligent and has the sound of the ‘90s,” said Stevens, who is also host of the radio show “American Top 40.”
Portions of the video will be seen each week during the title sequence of the one-hour CBS-TV series premiering Friday.
Stevens stars as the unconventional police Detective Max Monroe who will do anything, no matter how wild, in the pursuit of a criminal suspect.
