Poll question: Which TV show had the best music score?
Edited on Tue Sep-07-10 12:35 PM by charlie and algernon
Not looking at JUST the theme song, but the music over the entire course of the series, throughout all the episodes.

2. The West Wing

The music was always perfect and set exactly the mood and scene. The Whiffenpoofs segment was truly incredible.

But, noting will ever top the New Orleans music/Christmas episode of Studio 60 (again Snuffy)

11. I think LOST has to win this
Having one or more themes for each character is pretty impressive.

12. What about the original WKRP?
They played great tunes during that show. Always well placed and there for reason. Too bad they can't get the licensing to release the series on dvd in it's true glory.

Johnny, "I do"
