Should have been mentioned that the demand for "I'll Be There For You" to be released as a full length single by the Rembrandts after huge demand from the public led the song to have two extra verses added in the single version.

I myself question why some were included (Dallas, Three's Company, Full House) and some, which to this day are instantly recognizable, were omitted (The Twillight Zone, Bonanza, The Rockford Files, Green Acres). I never watched Rockford or Green Acres but I remember putting them on just to I hear the theme song. Who doesn't immediately picture sand, surf, and rolling waves when hearing the Hawaii Five-O theme? Some were such hits that they made it onto the pop charts (Welcome Back Kotter, Bosom Buddies, Rockford Files, Green Acres, Hill Street Blues to name a few). I agree with some of the other commentors about doing a Top 20 or so from each decade to include some of the great themes not mentioned here.

It's obscure but the FX show What We Do in the Shadows has a great theme song/intro sequence. Some of HBO's shows have good ones too.

@santh9115 2 года назад

This is honestly a respectful list

@AntonXul 2 года назад

For me, y’all missed a few good ones: Barney Miller - Bad ass baseline Taxi - Just smoothe Diff’rent Strokes - Great vocals Perfect Strangers - Again, great vocals Metalocalypse - Awesome metal South Park - Just fun Oh wait! As I’m writing this, I just realized the last 2 are animated. Oh well. I’ll still include them.

Perfect strangers is one of my all time favourites

Mike Post made great themes, like Hill Street Blues or Magnum PI. Also, there are some great 60s and 70s themes in Great Britain, such as The Avengers or The Prisoner (with Patrick McGoohan), also Thunderbirds or Department S. Someone here mentioned I Dream of Genie and The Andy Griffith Show. Lost in Space and Star Trek are iconic. What about Six Million Dollar Man? There are so many themes that became legendary.

@Gunnerb52 Год назад

I dream of Genie 2nd season on. The first season not so much. It's funny but right now I am watching that show on Amazon. I am almost through 2nd season. And wow, yeah I forgot about those others. Six Million Dollar Man (another theme song that told the story). Battlestar Galactica, Space 1999, and yes the Avengers. The Prisoner theme was OK. But leaving off Star Trek? I would say that and Star Wars are probably the most recognized theme songs. Though Star Wars was a movie. Oh and if you want to add in British shows then Benny Hill...I remember staying up late on Saturdays to watch that show :) Oh and let's not forget all the teen boys favorite show...Wonder Woman To this day I still listen to Greatest American Hero and Welcome Back Kotter songs.

@nicholeponiewaz5591 2 года назад

Charmed, That 70's Show, Smallville, and One Tree Hill have some of the best theme songs ever.

The first one was just Rock Around the Clock, which was a pre-existing song (though a fun one). But the visuals they used to accompany it were really clever.

There are easily enough choices to do "another 20" list. These were all classics that there was no room for The Facts of Life, The A-Team, Baywatch, The Munsters, Diff'rent Strokes, Batman (Adam West), or The Mickey Mouse Club

The Prisoner with Patrick McGoohan. Vegas with Robert Urich. The closing theme to Wagon Train by Jerome Moross. John Williams of Jaws, Star Wars did TV. Lost In Space, Time Tunnel and Land of The Giants. Yes the theme to Masterpiece Theater is on my list.
