Syfy premiered the thriller Helix, yesterday. You'll see below that Burt's music is mentioned in relation to it.
What is the song? Is it really a theme song? When is it played? Any info at all? (Syfy's website will provide access to the the first episode to people in the US and maybe some other countries. I wasn't able to watch it.)

Look, if the theme song to Helix is going to be some upbeat Burt Bacharach-style elevator jam, then obviously the team behind Syfy's new horror-thriller Helix aren't taking the show entirely too seriously and recognize their show can also be fun.

And kudos for using a perky Burt Bacharach melody as an ironic counterpoint to all the horrific mayhem. I wouldn't walk on by this one.

"And then as we were thinking, we had the idea to try to do something different musically. And initially we weren't thinking about doing a lot of songs.
"And I think it was one of our producers who actually came up with the old Burt Bacharach song and the Dionne Warwick version and we're like, "Yes, that would be awesome."
Syfy's HELIX -- a B-H-D theme song?
