Default Best (and Worst) Theme Songs
I was watching George Strombolopolus Tonight, immediately after it ended I heard "Fwaaaaa fwafwafwafwafwaaaaaa" and I began to grow sad. Coronation Street. That theme song is so depressing. It has got to be the worst theme song for any TV show.

The best by far is the Littlest Hobo. I don't think any theme song or intro could top this one.



Yes, they still show it on CTV on Saturday and Sunday mornings, and no, I am not ashamed to admit I will wake up at 8 am, turn on the TV, watch some Littlest Hobo, then crawl back to bed and sleep for another hour and a half.

Taxi, bumping bit of jazz funk. Barney Miller comes a close second though and was a far cooler show

Kinda hand in hand with the last one, I've always found this video hilarious.

Everybody knows theme songs are your last chance to use the washroom, kill the lights, get a snack, etc.

Nothing got me more juiced up on Saturday mornings when I was a kid than the Thundercats theme song.



edit: I can't embed one with the action shots, but that's ok.

God, I loved this show. I would come home for lunch during elementary school largely for this (as well as Inspector Gadget).

Perfect Strangers and Thundercats already mentioned, damn you guys are good.

I'll go with something currently on TV then, Game of Thrones.
