What are the TV theme songs you never tire of hearing?

[Justice wanted]

Just started watching season 3 of night court and heard the opening theme song.


It is one of the themes I can constantly listen to

And I love Daria's theme

And Hogan's Heroes get an honorable mention

How about you?

8. 30 Rock

[Systematic Chaos]

9. Just about anything Mike Post did.

Rockford Files, Hill Street Blues, so many others.

And then there's also the theme to The Greatest American Hero. One of my favorite early 80s hits.

for Monk.

[Behind the Aegis]

11. Wonder Woman!

(Sound sucks on this)

[Inchworm]

12. I love the "new" Hawaii Five-O theme

I saw someone upthread hit up the other version

[cyberswede]

29. That is good

and a nice homage to the original - both the song, and the video montage.

Is the show any good? I like Scott Caan...

[unionworks]

13. The Munsters

For those who don't know, the Munsters tunes were done by the Standells, one of my favorite 60's psychedelic bands.

[MiddleFingerMom]

17. The Standells did the first song I ever bought as a 45 RPM single, "Dirty Water".

.
.
.
Though also a huge fan of The Munsters, I never realized until tonight
that they did that theme song.
.
.
.
I still love Fred Gwynne's head-wobbling, big ol' goofy gleeful grin
after kissing Lily on the cheek and heading off to work.
.

[unionworks]

18. Check the credits

Next time you watch a Munsters episode. The Standells are in there. In fact, at least in the early episodes, I believee they provied the "background" music throughout the show - remember the electric guitar? And remember, MFM - "Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White"!

[larbabe]

50. The Standells are ALL avid and rabid Democrats!

The group is still very active, and is recording their first record album in over 46 years. Go here to listen to a demo of their song "Mr. One Percent" which will be on the album.


The Standells slam greedy corporations and the wealthiest 1% of Americans.
"Mr. One Percent" is a demo of a song that was written by Larry Tamblyn months before the "Occupy" movement began. It will be in the Standells' upcoming record album. Because the lyrics deal with the very issues of economic inequality that those of Occupy Wall Street are protesting, the Standells felt that they'd rather show support for the cause now with the unfinished version.

21. LOVED the Munsters--mind you when I saw that show and the Addams family they where all re-runs

but good TV never goes out of style.

I never knew the Standells did that song. You taught me something new today.

[pokerfan]

14. Jonny Quest and...

The Addams Family, The Rockford Files and Barney Miller

My favorite from a current show - Doctor Who:

Lyrics by Craig Ferguson

[slay]

41. I LOVE that Doctor Who cold open theme and song by Craig

sooo funny. i was watching the night they did the rehearsal of it but were not allowed to use it. Craig did a very funny cold open anyways and kept harping on how he hoped "someone" would leak the rehearsal taping onto the internet - which happened a few weeks later - then they finally got the permission (I'm guessing from Orbital) to use it. Top notch stuff from Craig. *on edit - added the video of the widescreen official airing of the lost cold open.

[pokerfan]

44. this was the original cold open

I saw it when it first aired...

So funny. Craig playing with his sonic. (And yes, that's code.)

[sakabatou]

16. ST: Voyager

[Doc Holliday]

34. Too true

Voyager had the best theme music of any of the Trek shows, IMO. Although the wifey really likes "Faith of the Heart"....which makes me wanna hurl. Rod Stewart wanna-bes don't do a thing for me.

[sakabatou]

45. Although it's not a theme

The Inner Light Suite should be the best song from Star Trek.

[sarge43]

19. Mr Lucky

Lush and lovely

[TreasonousBastard]

20. If you're my age, you'll never forget this one...

[Justice wanted]

22. I've heard this song before--Always liked it had no clue it was from a TV show. Thanks for

teaching something today.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

30. Live version from the late, legendary Roy Buchanan, on Germany's "Rockpalast," Feb. 1985:

[Spike89]

39. Best ever

I had an early (80s) video racing game with this music as the background and it never got old.

[HopeHoops]

23. "M*A*S*H" and "Barney Miller"

[mucifer]

24. Mission Impossible

The theme is way better than the show.

[AsahinaKimi]

25. These are my favorites....

Kimiko ~yori

[Doc Holliday]

26. It didn't last long....

....but the theme to The Damon Wayans Show always cracked me up.

Silly and simple:

"It's Damon's show....it's not your show
It's Damon's show.....it's not your show..."

This would repeat a few times, and then end abruptly with a "ba-doo-doo."

I really liked this show...Andrea Martin was hilarious.

[kaitcat]

27. Gilmore Girls

[YankeyMCC]

28. The New Battlestar Galactica

Also, any of the Star Trek themes, yes even the Enterprise theme with lyrics.

Also, NYPD Blue

[PassingFair]

31. Treme...The Wire...."Little Boxes" from the early "Weeds" episodes.

[hifiguy]

32. Many,

but all my favorites have been mentioned:

The Prisoner
Peter Gunn
Mr. Lucky

I'd forgotten how cool "The Munsters" theme was. I also seem to remember that "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." had a pretty nifty theme.

[deutsey]

33. In addition to many others already mentioned

WKRP's opening and closing themes.

[Doc Holliday]

35. Oz

Remember... that HBO series which took place in a prison?

That music always makes me want to dance.

[Myrina]

36. Six Feet Under & Downtown Abbey

I'm weird, I know.

[Doc Holliday]
