Favorite TV Show Theme Songs

[Serena]

Serena, Yeah he was at the concert. I'll see if I could get a pic of it. Might be hard, but I'll try.

Thanks, Prisoner, but don't search too much. I do like Will Smith a lot, starting all the way back to the Prince of Bel Air, but especially now for his action movies. He's one of my top favorite actors. I think he's a real natural. Don't know anything about his music, though, as I don't personally care for that style. But I did like his theme song.

No i havent Serena..eek Lollipop dont let Steven hear you saying that but i do think that Tarantino is pretty good too ..I just love William Petersen eh Serena?..doesnt he look alot like Lee Majors?....

Ohh, Heather--Wait 'til you see it! I won't spoil it for you, but it was very good! And yes--I guess William Petersen is probably my favorite TV actor. I never really thought about him looking like Lee Majors, though. hmmm.... Nahh, can't see it.

He is not a looker, but he is a good actor and director! :apeace:

He is a fantastic director, Lollipop!
I think he's the person they coined the phrase "thinking outside the box" for!

Hmmm...I loved the A-Team theme song too!
Hardcastle & McCormick. and my favorite was
from Cheers!

Yes, Cheers, Kat! I'm surprised it was so low on the list, at #42. Surely that's one of the most recognized theme songs on TV, I would think.

Street Hawk was a short lived television series that aired back in 1985 on ABC. It lasted only one season and there was only 13 episodes ever made (what a shame!). The show was about a cop name Jessie Mach who was picked to test a top secret government project called Street Hawk. His partner Norman Tuttle, the designer of the motorcycle, was in charge of the project. Jessie would cruise the streets of L.A. on the bike while Norman sat back at command center guiding Jessie. Together they would fight crime on the Streets of Los Angeles.

The music in Streethawk was by a band called Tangerine Dream.

Yes, really good!! But I let him and George Clooney sucker me into watching a movie "From Dawn to DusK" I thought George and Quentin Tarantino! This will be good, it was a vampire movie scared the sh** out of me!!!

I thought that was a VERY cool movie!
That was in my thread I created last year sometime called something like "Bad Movies You Love".

Guess you're not the only one who thought so--it's #3 on the list!

Amos - I don't really remember much about Street Hawk except that the focal point of the show was a black bike.

I believe that The Dukes Of Hazzard is being made into a film with Sean William Scott and Johnny Knoxville playing Luke and Bo - hopefully it will be as good as Starsky and Hutch was.

GMan

Won't be the same without Waylon Jennings narrating, though (he died not long ago, I believe).

 

[TDWoj]

Let's see - my favourites?

A Team
Black Sheep Squadron
M*A*S*H
Star Trek (Original Series)
Star Trek The Next Generation (well, it was the first movie's theme, but I liked it)
Star Trek Deep Space Nine
Lost in Space
Twilight Zone
When Things Were Rotten (who remembers that series, eh?)
Whiz Kids (okay, so it's based on a theme by Mozart - but it was still pretty cool)
Murder, She Wrote
Third Watch
CSI
Crime Story (another classic song from the Sixties)
Gilligan's Island
Beverly Hillbillies
Dr. Who (that is the coolest music ever, in my opinion, especially if you get a chance to hear it all the way to the end, which you hardly ever do because tv stations tend to cut off the end credits too soon).
Hockey Night in Canada (well, I'm Canadian, I can't help it, eh)

more later, as I think of them

That's exactly what I said in Craig's Dukes of Hazzard thread--when he claimed he hadn't noticed Daisy!

that was a good show too. i liked it too.

Oh, I thought of a couple more:

Mystery! (Love those Edward Gorey drawings, too!)
Masterpiece Theatre
Sherlock Holmes series with Jeremy Brett (I know there's a CD out there with the series' music on it, I just haven't been able to find it - as far as I know it was only available in Britain)
Bonanza (how could I have let that one out?)

 

[Lollipop]

I liked the Bonanza one!
I think the Big Valley had good music also!

I vaguely remember the Big Valley, having seen it in reruns years later, so I don't really remember the theme song. I did like the show, though. Especially Jared (later in Nanny and the Professor ).

And there's another good theme song! Nanny and the Professor.
"Phoebe Figalilly is a silly name..."

I also liked the theme song for the series Wild, Wild West, which I also saw in reruns as a teenager. I think the same theme was used, although more jazzed up, in the movie Wild Wild West with Will Smith--which I didn't think was as bad as almost everyone else in the world thought.

My best top 3:
1;Knight Rider,
2;Macgyver,
3;Airwolf

I had forgotten The Wild Wild West! I like the show!!

Did anyone mention?

The Partridge Family Theme Song Hello, world, here the song that we're singin' C'mon get happy! A whole lot of lovin' is what we'll be bringin' ...

 

[Serena]

My best top 3:
1;Knight Rider,
2;Macgyver,
3;Airwolf

Several people have mentioned Knight Rider also, but I just can't remember the theme song, though I remember the show. Must have been a good one.

 

[Amos Stevens]

Knight rider sort-of had a sci-fi theme With that rememorable dashing red light on the front of the car

I forgot this one, I watched the reruns forever!!

The Doris Day Show

When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother, What will I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich? Here's what she said to me:

Que Sera Sera, what ever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera Sera, what will be, will be

When I grew up and fell in love, I asked my sweetheart, what lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows day after day? Here's what my sweetheart said:

Que Sera Sera, what ever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera Sera, what will be, will be

Now I have children of my own they ask their mother what will I be
Will I be handsome? Will I be rich? I tell them tenderly:

Que Sera Sera, what ever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera Sera, what will be, will be.

Dragnet had some neat music with the intro speech!!!
