How are we this far in with no mention of:

Family Ties
Growing Pains
Who's the Boss
Welcome Back Kotter

 

[siouxcyty]

and of course Star Trek. Link has all versions from Seasons 1-3 and even the animated series:

There is no debate.

Main debate is that the pic showing has Coy and Vance in it. Aren't we just supposed to pretend those episodes never happened?

 

[ca4cy]

Bonanza. Take is away Paul.

There were so many good shows back in the 80's and 90's that have already been mentioned already. TV theme songs today just aren't as good as they were IMO. Here's a few classics

Dallas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vZNWdFd1UM
Diff'rent Strokes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK6xCaN4YpY
Mr. Belvedere: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IUSSrldd0U
M*A*S*H: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtYBuVxLbr0
Married with Children: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0deJRSu1iTU
Perfect Strangers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vbnLYROCj8
Facts of Life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_GxXRbSFDg
Family Matters (remember Urkel?): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ws6zba8sTVw
Step by Step: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DX5fo_iLBY
Who's the Boss?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dvzR0jfxKk
Home Improvement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHIOzsU0fbM

A little more modern:
The Simpsons: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqJS_FqZNJ0
Family Guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhAN-L0EzCI

Ouch, those were some bad episodes too! Pretty much they were trying to replace Bo and Luke with some terribly bad imitations of them

Yup. Just God awful stuff to watch. The only thing that could have saved those episodes would have been to just let everybody else talk while keeping the camera on Daisy the entire time.

 

[GTO]

G.I. Joe, Transformers, and Thundercats had some pretty epic theme songs.

 

[oldman]

Spongebob Squarepants

 

[ca4cy]

Phineas and Ferb.

I just saw this the other night and it transposed me back in time. Love this theme song.

[pourcyne]

I feel sorry for kids today. They have no inkling...

George of the Jungle

Tom Slick

Go, Go Gophers


P.S. : And we publish visible YouTube videos how? The film icon no longer works for me under Firefox.

[Robowe23]

This is such a great song. And, notice the famous drummer.

[Robowe23]

And, here's the original from TV. So good.

[Robowe23]

I still hear this song in my sleep.

[Robowe23]

I think this has been parodied more than any theme song I have ever heard.
