Sick theme song. Too bad they changed it after a few seasons.

I think we have this thread about every six weeks. From my childhood:

I always liked this one, and it was entirely appropriate for the show:

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7j5Be5a86uA&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7j5Be5a86uA&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

And a bit of good old fashioned John Willaims fun:

One of the best

Not the best but one of my favorite TV theme songs.

Seems like 70s and 80s have this category on lock.

 

In the age of DVR/TiVo, OnDemand, DVD sets, Hulu, I can't recall the newer theme songs.

 

Never seen this, but came across it on YouTube. Crazy, cool and in control.

Square Pegs (The Waitresses):

Here's a newer one that is money.

And I respond either TO this theme or with it every 6 weeks

How did we have such dreamy visions of grandeur about the future then, such great anticipation? But NOW I (maybe not you) dont want anything to do with the future? I want to go BACK, not forward

 

Nice. I was going to post that as one of my faves because I thought nobody else would. :grin:

But let's get serious... it takes a genius like Quincy Jones to come up with one of the best. The full version :

How is Hill Street Blues never mentioned in these threads? I don't get it. Just a really great song (won't let me embed):

This song is great; didn't realize how hilarious the video of it was until now:

St. Elsewhere, Dallas, and LA Law should be mentioned as well.

I think theme songs went away with Seinfeld, although I'm not sure about that, just a guess. They wanted to pack more show into the 20 minutes, so they cut the theme song; it was successful so everyone else followed suit. Again not sure if that's true or not so correct me if I'm wrong.
