  18. @Tricia13 - Rockford was witty and well acted. Great television in an era when there were not that many great dramas on TV.

    The guy who played Sergeant Becker, Joe Santos, was on a rerun of the old Match Game the other week. Really funny guy.

  35. Definitely GoT. And the theme to the Nanny, Friends, Fraser, MASH, and Veronica Mars.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Cheers, Grange Hill and the theme to Wimbledon coverage.

    Although I don’t remember the TV series, the theme from Take Three Girls which I think was called Take Flight by Pentangle. I’ve always loved that song and its sixties sound. The LP also had the original 1960s Avengers theme tune and lots of other greats.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Mystery Science Theater 3000. 💕

    I also love the opening to Vikings (History Channel). Goosebumps every time.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Vita, my mother used to practically swoon over James Garner. Now when I see his photo, I can see the attraction. The Rockford Files did have a great theme tune too.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I like a lot of the ones already put forth, but I need to add:

    The A-Team

    ReplyDelete
  40. Correction, the Pentangle song was Light Flight.
    Thanks Spotify.

    ReplyDelete
  41. @fionafab - their take on "Peter Gunn" is exceptional, but if you want to hear something really special, look for a track called "Moments In Love".

    ReplyDelete
  42. WKRP in Cincinnati

    That base guitar intro to Barney Miller was great.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Jeopardy, The Partridge Family, The Beverly Hillbillies, The Andy Griffith Show.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I can't believe that none of you mentioned the best TV theme song of all time. It is for The Mary Tyler Moore Show. "Who can turn the world on with her smile? Who can take a nothing day, and suddenly make it all seem worthwhile?"

    ReplyDelete
  45. The Magic Garden with Paula and Carol

  46. Green Acres and Petticoat Junction!

  57. Wonder Years is my top favourite. RIP Joe Cocker who sang it better than the Beatles themselves.
    Stranger Things - gives me a real spooky feeling. Very similar to X-files.
    Narcos - I never skip the into and I don't even understand Spanish.
    Fresh Prince of Bel Air - The first hip-hop song I could understand. Pardon me, English is not my first language.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Also, How to Save a Life of Grey's Anatomy. The most annoying theme song was F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

  79. I mean, I love all the music. I'm sad that nobody's named The Greatest American Hero. :(

    But if you've ever watched King of the Hill, well, that song is just about guaranteed to stick in your brain.
