    Favorite TV themes?

    For me, it's a tie between Unsolved Mysteries and The X Files.

    Close runners up, the 90s Fox X-Men cartoon series, Star Trek TNG and Breaking Bad.

    Discuss

    edit: I'm not an anime fan but I LOVE dragonball! Especially the themes for the original and z (Japanese versions)

    The Simpsons one is the most memorable of all tv shows I've heard in my lifetime. Next to that is the X-Files theme.

    X-Files always and forever.

    In terms of favorite MODERN tv theme? I think What We Do In The Shadows might take that one.

    My fave is either Barney Miller or The Adventures of Pete & Pete. Both awesome.

    That one creeped me the fuck out when I was little. I had a similar reaction to the 70s Dr. Who theme and the equally weird opening sequence.

    I almost did. It's great, I just couldn't decide if it was a personal favorite or not.
