Your Favorite TV Themes!

[Gary]

I haven't seen any of those, but the theme from Scrubs is my favorite.

I highly recommend Scrubs except Season 9 as it is agreed among fans that Season 9 never happened (it was a horrendous mistake).

The Partridge Family

ABC Wide World of Sports (1974 Intro)

Ironside (Opening and Closing theme)

S.W.A.T. Theme (Intro)

The Fall Guy (1982) Lee Majors wrote and sung the theme as a pitch for the show, and he sings the actual theme.

The Odd Couple

Welcome Back, Kotter

M*A*S*H

Match Game 75 Opening
Note about Match Game: There's a clip on YouTube where Richard Dawson became furious in one episode and stormed off of the set. I remember watching when that episode had originally been broadcast. Also, I don't know if these shows were filmed during the day or evening, but it's obvious several were filmed in one day and on occasion you'll see when some of the panel are obviously drunk. They obviously had loads of fun on the set of that show.

Firefly Opening Theme

ABC Wide World of Sports (1974 Intro)

I was never into sports, but I always loved this opening. "The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat..."

S.W.A.T. Theme (Intro)

This is one of those TV themes that was also a radio hit.

The Fall Guy (1982) Lee Majors wrote and sung the theme as a pitch for the show, and he sings the actual theme.

That's cool. I didn't know that.

The Odd Couple

Classic.

Welcome Back, Kotter

Another radio hit.

M*A*S*H

Classic.

I never watched Match Game, but I always thought most of the celebs on Hollywood Squares were stoned.

Firefly Opening Theme

So much lost potential....

[Lupine]

And now for some educational content.

Eyewitness.

Nature.

Planet Earth II.

[RJDiogenes]

Nice. The photography and cinematography is truly unbelievable.

Here's another classic.

Kolchak: The Night Stalker (1974)

The only version I could find is this Spanish dub, but it still rings through. I remember my older brother and me being lucky enough to sneak past Saturday night bedtime and watching this at 10:30pm (we always had to go to church on Sunday). The episode Chopper had me on edge for days!

[RJDiogenes]

One of my all-time favorites! I posted a version of it on Page 2, but I also had no luck finding the original title sequence.

Bosch Main Title | Amazon Originals | Can't Let Go

A fitting theme since the main character loves jazz.

[RJDiogenes]

I like those kaleidoscopic views of the city.

[RJDiogenes]

I reminded myself of this one in the party thread: It Takes A Thief.

[Lupine]

Heard of that one but never saw it.

But I did watch I Spy.

[RJDiogenes]

Heard of that one but never saw it.

It's very cool. Luckily it was on Channel 56 in the early 70s, so I got to see it daily.

But I did watch I Spy.

I vaguely remember this from when it was on the air, but it was never syndicated on a local channel so I don't think I've ever seen a complete episode.
