[CdnCarrie]

Binge watching Big Love and the opening song is so awful!

Gilmore Girls and Cheers probably couple of the best theme songs.

I don't keep track of the bad ones. They're just forgettable.

Moonlighting had my favorite theme song.

Out of themes with no lyrics, my favorites were The Young and the Restless and Newhart.

Walker Texas Ranger (the original) was so bad it was good with ole Chuck Norris trying to sing.

I’ve actually started watching 7th Heaven again (I know…don’t judge me…ok, judge me), and that’s another one where I love the theme song, but I’m also aware it’s pretty bad.

I love Carole King, but man, the Gilmore Girls theme song made me cringe every time I heard it. Lol. Worst song to me.

Love the opening music to Stranger Things.

I love the True Blood song

I loved the show Big Love. I watched them as they aired originally. However, for the life of me, I cannot remember what the theme song was. I guess that means it was pretty forgettable. I will have to look on youtube.

I looked, oh yea I hate that song

My opinion might be a bit biased though, I just don't like the Beach Boys. I don't really have a reason. People are always "how can you not like the Beach Boys?"... I cannot really give a reason other than I just do not like their music. It is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

a couple of classic good ones:

Welcome Back Kotter -

Family Ties -

As far as good ones....

I would stop what I am doing just to watch and listen to this one!

 

[fly girl]

Another great one ...

As for bad -- I was never a fan of Entourage's theme song. It fits, just annoying.

My DH and I were just talking recently about TV theme songs/music - they just don’t exist like they used to.

I can’t think of any theme songs/music that I don’t like, just ones I don’t like as much as others.

My recent favorite one is from Downton Abbey - my favorite TV show (the music throughout the show is always beautiful and perfect for the show)

Another favorite was from ER - my second favorite show of all time. Thursday at 9:00pm

I love the theme to Coach. Takes me back to those fall days in college at a football game.

Which one? God Only Knows or Home? I didn't mind either one.

I don't like the Beach Boys either. I nearly flip my lid whenever that Run Run Rudolph comes on at Christmas. I like the second theme song from Big Love the best. It was so dreamlike, and it totally captured the falling apart of the family IMO. I forget which season they changed it. I own that box set. I LOVE that show!

 

[Alicefan]

Yes, Downton Abbey for the win! I also like The Sopranos, and Lark Rise to Candleford.

The Monkees.

The Monkees.

aww I just saw Mike and Mickey perform in Knoxville. About a month and a half before Mike died. I adored them all my life.

The Doctor Who theme tune is pretty iconic:
