What is your favorite, not favorite TV Theme song?

This is inspired by Worst song ever...

Are there any tv theme songs you just loved and wished could have been more like a real song? Or have there been themes you just hated? Just an interesting question. Could be fun.

One i like is the Family Ties theme

One of my fav's..The theme for Enterprise...which is a real song.

Also I enjoy the Survivor Theme and all the different ones through the different seasons

 

[MosMom]

My favorite: Providence (Yes, I know it is a real song but I love it all the same)

Least favorite: Enterprise (I think the song is horrid and doesn't fit Star Trek at all)

 

[MosMom]

I don't think I can be friends with you anymore Dax.

The old "Decorating Cents" (HGTV) theme song, I loved that song. They've changed it for the new season, but the old one just used to make me feel good!

 

[Stepharoonie!]

Favorite: Queer Eye for the Straight Guy


Least Favorite: Newlyweds. It sounds really static-y.

My favorite is one most people just know the instrumental to:

There’s a certain couple that I know.
They’re strictly lovebirds,
A pair of turtle dove birds.
He’s a guy who wants the world to know.
So ev’ry day You’ll hear him say
I Love Lucy and she loves me,

We’re as happy as two can be,
Sometimes we quarrel but then again
How we love making up again.

Lucy kisses like no one can,
She’s my missus and I’m her man;
And life is heaven you see
Cause I Love Lucy
Yes I Love Lucy
and Lucy loves me.

Favourites:

The Jeffersons - movin' on up
Sanford and Son - just cool
Mad About You - pretty catchy
All in the Family - a classic
Cheers - just really nice
Battlestar Galactica - I just like it


Least Favourite:

Facts of Life - very annoying
Friends - so vapidly irritating

LOVE the theme song to The Nanny
Then there was that American Bandstand song...
The Osbornes song is pretty cool

Can't think of one I don't like, off-hand...

 

[frannn]

"Charmed"
Can't think of any that I hate right now......
maybe I secretly hate the American Idol tune now, since I bought the Playstation game, and they play it between every round....with 3 DDs, I hear it in my nightmares....

As soon as I saw the title of the thread I thought Family Ties. I love that theme. I also like All in the Family. Can't think of any that I really don't like at the moment. I'm sure as soon as I submit this I will think of one.

While I liked the show, I can't stand the theme from"Home Improvement"

Favorite? CSI - both Miami & Vegas!!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

the Queer Eye song is a real one

 

[noel]

Call me an old lady, but I love the "Matlock" theme song!
But my favorite is "Three's Company" - that guitar solo at the beginning is great!

 

[Danauk]

The theme song to Friends always gets me singing.
I loved the theme to Ally McBeal when that was on too.

I find the theme to Enterprise slightly anoying - it doesn't seem to fit the show IMHO

 

[oldkicker]

Love these:

Barney Miller Theme
Flintstones
Jonny Quest
Mission Impossible
Beverly Hillbillies
Sanford and Son
Get Smart
Rocky and Bullwinkle
Square Pegs

Not so keen on this one:
Full House (I just cringe - I have two daugthers who just adored this show)

 

[shrubber]

what could be better than The Andy Griffith Show?
or worse than The Facts of Life?

 

[MosMom]

I always liked Laverne & Shirley's theme too!
