TV Theme Songs

What is your favourite TV Theme Song? I have a few that I liked from way back in the day.

Simon and Simon
Welcome Back, Kotter
Sanford and Son

Here is a list of some TV themes:

I've always been partial to Stairway to Gilligan's Island, myself.



Seriously, though, Mission Impossible, Hawaii Five-O, or I Dream of Jeannie.

When I was just a young lad, I clearly remember being enamored with the themes songs from my favorite television shows. I would actually hum or sing along. But to pick a favorite theme? That's impossible. I had too many "favorite" television shows. Some of my favorite themes were:


BONANZA


GET SMART


THE PRISONER


BATMAN


CAR 54 Where Are You?

I suppose I have plenty more favorites too numerous to mention but these are the ones that, again as a little kid, drove my Mom nuts as I hummed or sang them endlessly.

Air Wolf (awesome), and Otherworld (yeah, nobody else ever heard of it either, only had like 8 episodes, but was ahead of its time).

Others:

StreetHawk, Knight Rider (see a theme with supervehicles?)
Miami Vice (killer)
Sledge Hammer
Phoenix

Knightrider
A-team
Old Battlestar galatica
Hawaii-five-o
Quantum leap

Air Wolf.....man oh man, does that show ever bring back memories. I used to actually wait for this show. Now, after viewing the opening theme sequence, I can recall just how lame the show was. I'd even forgotten that Ernest Borgnine was in the show. He portrayed "Dominic", the loveable, lauaghable mechanic who always admonished Jan Micheal Vincent's character for bringing back the Air Wolf helicopter with a bullet hole or two. Sheeeesh.

Still, the theme song was pretty good. Who did the theme? Was it Tangerine Dream?

The Angel theme tune has always been a favourite of mine.

M*A*S*H. Star Trek. Hawaii 5 Oh. Miami Vice, hated the show, loved the theme. Bonanza.

It was two lines when I wrote it...
