Recently started watching old 90s and 80s shows just for the fun of it, because I’m bored with all of the new stuff that’s coming out, and I fell into Knight Rider.
My review of the show so far aside, it’s got straight up the most banger theme music I have heard in a TV show in a very long time.
It got me wondering what other TV shows have really great theme songs?
Garth Marenghi’s Dark Place, hands down the best there ever was.
Edit: I take that back. Lupin The III Part 2, hands down the best there ever was.
Ironside - Quincy Jones

Every now and again I find the Ulysses 31 intro playing in my head for no reason, and I’m ok with that.

Actual song starts ~40s in
Barney Miller
Also, the theme to Succession always got me hyped up. The part when it’s showing the kids riding on the elephant, right after the bridge, the piano subtly changes from previous parts. So good.
Magnum.PI with Tom Selleck
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
My two favorites are Psych and Alphas.
Breaking Bad.
I don’t like theme songs…
It’s objectively The X-Men Animated Series theme. All other answers are invalid.
Fairly Odd Parents might not be the best, but it is worth mentioning.
Definetely one of the most iconic for younger generations!
Well this is my jam.
Gilligans island The fall guy Greatest american hero Original mission impossible Gi joe
If i think of more i wilp edit.
Arthur theme song kinda slaps.
Jekyll Jekyll Hyde Jekyll Hyde Hyde Jekyll
Sometimes when I’m bored and just to fill the space I will start singing this. It’s a great theme song.
I commented because I was thinking of the theme song for Doug and then I listened to this because I wanted to hear it again and I realized it’s a completely different song.
It’s still a great song, though. It’s just not Doug.
Lost in Space: Season 3 You’ll never guess who composed this one. Go ahead and look it up, I want you to experience the sheer awe I did when I found out.
