Best TV Theme song

Here is a few more. I watch too much TV.

*Married With Children
Jeopardy
L.A. Law
The Beverly Hillbillies
The Addams Family
The Munsters
Space 1999
Dr. Who
Star Trek

  • Barney Miller * (great 70s bass porn style music)
  • Roseanne * (sounds like striptease music)
  • South Park *
  • Seinfeld *
  • Family Guy *

yeah, everyone has already mentioned the other themes I was going to suggest …

I can’t believe I’m the first to mention

  • Sanford and Son
  • The Norm Show (Too Bad)

Okay, quick:

What are the official lyrics to the original Star Trek theme song? And no, this is not a trick question.

You have 30 seconds. Go!

I remember watching Greatest American Hero when I was a kid, but I have no recollection of the theme music. Seeing all the votes for it here makes me wish the Sci-Fi Channel or some other station showed it in re-runs.

But the votes for the ones I can recall are:

**
Law and Order
Millenium ** (that short-lived show with Lance Henriksen)
**Malcolm in the Middle
E.R.
L.A. Law
Cheers
Night Court
All in the Family
Picket Fences
Miami Vice
The Simpsons

Let’s see if this jogs your memory:
*Lookit what’s happened to meee-heee,
I can’t believe it myself,
Suddenly I’m up on top of the world –
Shoulda been somebody else!

Believe it or not, IIIIII’M walkin’ on a-a-air,
I Never thought I could feel so free-heee-heee,
Flyin’ away ON A wiiing and a prayer –
Who could it beeeeee?
Believe it or not, it’s just me!*

Don’t forget these immortal lines from the Diff’rent Strokes theme song:

A man is born, he’s a man of means
Then along come two, they got nothin’ but their jeans

Nobody’s mentioned Pinky and the Brain yet?

Or The Animaniacs?

Or Bonanza? Be grateful if you’ve never heard the cast sing the lyrics. Very painful.

I liked Courtship of Eddie’s Father:

  • People, let me tell ya 'bout my best friend. He’s a warm-hearted person who loves me to the end-duh*

and in the younger years, ** Sesame Street** was a definite favorite.

I add another vote to: Rockford Files
Hawaii 5-0 Welcome Back Kotter; All In The Family
Hogan’s Heroes The Muppet Show Starsky and Hutch
The Munster’s Magnum PI The Odd Couple
What about Chico and The Man Taxi
Ahhhh nostalgia…
