While this is probably at risk of causing this line of discussion to end up in its own thread, another example of when TV shows couldn't use pop music on the soundtrack was in the original series of Knight Rider, when they used soundalike perfomers and singers to cover popular songs as it was far cheaper than using the original songs.
For example, the Tina Turner song "We Don't Need Another Hero" used in Ep1 of S4 when KITT is being rebuilt after being trashed* earlier in the episode.
