Re: Favorite Theme Song From A TV Series?
Damn, I totally forgot The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Easily one of my favorites at the moment. I'd also throw in the theme from the All in the Family spinoff Archie Bunker's Place. It was just a sped up version of Those Were the Days without lyrics, but whenever I hear it it gets stuck in my head :lol:

Re: Favorite Theme Song From A TV Series?
I blind-bought a DVD based on this kick-ass theme alone:

Is recent TV that much more cookiecutter, so that the whole package just doesn't stick in our mind? Is it the massive competition for our viewing/listening attention just drowning any quality themes out? Are themes/openings a dying breed, in order to allow more time for commercials or product placement? Do the composers of today just suck? Am I overthinking this? (And of course that while we've mentioned a dozen or so, I am aware that there are tons from 20-50 years ago that are also pretty lame.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOWKpd6lzio |

Forgot about this one. It took a few episodes to grow on me, though.

Lots of good ones already posted.
The definitive seventies TV theme song, for some reason it's impossible to be in a bad mood when you hear it: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/m_wFEB4Oxlo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> My personal favorite use of a hit song in a credit sequence: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wdUCGiF-yaA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> A snappy little tune: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/L7ZrWOGIbIE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

The first time I watched Nurse Jackie & heard the theme song I sung "Way cool!" "Alright! Alright!" & "Just do it!" in the appropriate places! |

Re: Favorite Theme Song From A TV Series?
One I remember fondly from my childhood. The show itself was a tad hokey, but the theme song is lovely:
