I was addicted to that show.
The Outer Limits gets a head up for similar era niceness as well.

At the same time (speaking of canadian programming), I was addicted to Catwalk but that was purely a guilty pleasure.

Breaking Bad has a cool one, its only 15 seconds or so long though. The True Blood theme definitely works. Every other one I thought of has been taken.

chicka 08.04.2010 10:49 AM

The Sopranos theme was great imo.

Rob Instigator 08.04.2010 11:16 AM

My faves

Monday Night Football theme

CHiPS theme

Duke's Of Hazzard

Sanford & Son (quincy Jones genius funky!)

It's Always sunny in Philadelphia (love how the "champagne music" contrasts so harshly with the rude debauchery and degenerate nature of the show)

Cheers (my fave ever)

MASH

EVOLghost 08.04.2010 01:30 PM

two pages....and NO! SEALAB 2021?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5SiJM4sbqI



this is seriously best theme song ever...

Count Mecha 08.04.2010 02:10 PM

Haha true. Even though I didn't really like Sealab, I loved the hell out of the theme. Same goes for Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Some more good ones:

Trailer Park Boys - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dI6Drn3OA70

Dexter - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej8-Rqo-VT4

Twilight Zone(for some reason I find it strange Outer Limits got mentioned and not this) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zi6wNGwd84g

Gumby - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhczFRlBT2E

Eureeka's Castle - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpnZPM99JSM

FreshChops, Pee-Wee's Playhouse is mindblowing, great call.

viewtiful alan redux 08.04.2010 02:18 PM

Two outstanding anime themes:

Another Personal Favorite theme (I'm a big cartoon guy):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=di_ORAn1xlE

Count Mecha 08.04.2010 02:25 PM

Hah, I'm kind of ashamed that I didn't think of Cowboy Bebop, great music on that show.

Never really watched Harvey Birdman, I always thought the concept was cool. Neat theme though, I like it.

The real Birdman intro is good too - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2m45TLVKRs

Twin Peaks, The Sopranos, Treme, Mad Men, Millennium, The Wire, True Blood (though I don't watch the show, I just love the credits). I also kinda like ER

automatic bzooty 08.04.2010 05:49 PM

twin peaks theme music/opening sequence makes me sleepy. but it's good.

i like the intro song from the IT crowd; it sounds like a blatant rip off of 'are friends electric'

auto-aim 08.04.2010 06:23 PM

Wow! Nobody has mentioned this!
