The Masked Singer show recently hosted a TV Theme Night. To get into the celebrations, judge Robin Thicke performed the theme song from a sitcom very special to his heart. He performed “As Long As We Got Each Other” from Growing Pains, the ’80s show that starred his late father, Alan Thicke.

The entire performance was a nod to Growing Pains, which aired from 1985 until 1992. Alan played Dr. Jason Seaver, the patriarch of the family. A photo of Robin when he was young next to his dad on the set of the show came up on the screen as well.
