Favourite TV themes

Uh, let me try to explain this complicated concept.... :)

Right, it's not my alltime favourite, but I have a special place in my heart for the theme to "Black Beauty"...

Oh that's easy

I love the fact that it sounds like a mash up between a blaxploitation movie & The London Symphony Orchestra.

I used to love that show as a kid.

I hated the show, I thought it was boring. Once the theme tune was over I'd watch something else.

LOL. Always the hat monger. ;) To be honest I don't remember anything from the show (besides an image of burnt out corpses?) but I remember liking it.

I always liked this theme. Just sticks in your head (but then most John Williams scores tend to do that :) ).

And the use of Joan Jett's "Bad Reputation" as the theme for "Freaks and Geeks" really suited the show. Sure it wasn't written for it but the show seemed to be written for it.

And the last is the theme from the Wonder Years. Just a great use of a great Joe Cocker song.

Hats off to the theme from "Cheers" and "Dr Who" of course :)

I loved that Green Hornet used flight of the bumble bee.

No one has posted this yet? Shame, shame on all of you.

Epitome of badassery

I was skeptical when I found out a Brian Jonestown Massacre song was the theme, but I think it works really well and it's a nice edit of the song too.

^I second the Boardwalk Empire intro.

I also think that How To Make It In America had a pretty neat intro song.

The 70's dominated tv theme songs.

Bass-Tastic

meatwad get the money

No one's posted the Jeffersons theme song? It's a great song!

Mary Tyler Moore - Love Is All Around

So damnably happy.

Laverne and Shirley

There was a very strong for this song to be our senior class song, led by me, but the principal and superintendent decided for us that it was going to be ****ing Freebird. That's some ****. But seriously, how charming would this have been at a graduation ceremony? Adorbs.

The Greatest American Hero

My friends and I, every summer for the past seven years, have blared this song and sang along with it with all of the windows down at least five times per summer. We like most to sing it to the joggers at the park. Puts a smile on my face everytime I hear it.

Doctor Who theme, circa 05-07.

This was seriously my ringtone, and I actually just adore it in general.

Gilligan's Island

I don't think I've had a drunken night with friends that didn't devolve into a Gilligan's Island theme sing-along.

The Addams Family

Absolutely classic. Can you actually listen to this without snapping along with it? Because I can't.

Been watching a lot of this show recently.

If I had to pick between Buffy and Angel's theme. I would go for Angel's every single time. I loved that theme so much. I used to use it for voice overs on my radio show.
