College Drama: A Look Back At Felicity

Music Issues

Television shows in this day and age often have to fight it out to get the right to certain music and musical artists. Felicity was made during the days of Napster (remember that?) so music rights were not as at forefront as they are now. The show was one of the first shows ever to have to deal with the controversy around music copyright.

After making the show, producers still encountered issues gaining rights to the music. If you remember the show when it aired and compare it to music found on the DVD or in syndication programs almost all of the music has been replaced with completely different tracks.
