Favorite TV show theme songs

[null]

I can never get this out of my head

But no matter how hard I try, I can't remember this for long... it's so weird

 

[Cthulhu]

Dexter's theme is so dorky, .

I quite like The Wire's intro (and credits) theme songs. It's a 1987 song by Tom Waits (Way Down in the Hole) with a different re-rendition for each of the five seasons (although the second season is done by Waits himself). Just found that out though, .

+1 vote for Game of Thrones intro

plus the inevitable metal version

The X-Files had a pretty cool opening theme as well

But it's sooooo catchy. Come on, I can't be the only one who goes around fake-smiling all day over an interior monologue.

X-Men

^ I never loved this show as much as Buffy, but the theme was awesome.

 

[Tetsujin]

 

[Madame Mayor]

I remember we had threads similar to this a long time ago, when Ryu was doing his albums of awesome.

Why yes, yes you are . The theme is appropriate to the entire feel of the series though, sick twisted shit in sunny cheery florida (or wherever it is), . Hipocrisy in a TV series themesong, whaddyaknow.

Also, just spent the last few hours reading up on The Wire (and youtubing all the extras and things), . All of y'all go and watch it.

Also, I was going to post childhood memories of Zorro's intro, but all I can find is some version with a cheesy 80's pop track, which is lame. Give me the ZORRO! chanting, nao.

It makes me feel manly and impulsive to not search before starting a thread.

Speaking of manly and impulsive,

I'll put in another nod to the 'X-Files' and 'Firefly' themes.

Others include 'Dead Like Me':

'The Equalizer':

'Moonlighting':

'Criminal Minds':

'The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers:

'The High Chaparral'. I used to watch it as a kid with my dad and although I can barely recall anything about this show now, I still love the theme song:

I can't be the only one who loves the True Blood intro.

 

[Alex]

Seriously.

Not as classic/nostalgic as Batman or X-men, but still gets me hard

And people everywhere have a heart attack and die from 'not-suprise'.

I could list a ton more. Whoever was in charge of Disney's music department at the time was a genius. I'll finish off with some non-disney stuff tho.

And Game of Thrones of course. I fucking love that intro.

Intros are becoming less and less important to a tv show tho it seems. How many shows do you know that have a less than 10 second intro?

 

[Alessa Gillespie]

HOPE YOUR MIND HASN'T BEEN BLOWN BY HOW INTENSE THAT WAS

 

[ForceStealer]

Well, naturally,

Also, Awesome Overflowing, which is the currently unsorted album of shit I somehow forgot to toss into these three. I'll upload that if anyone wants.

True fact- some of these themes I'd never seen the show for when I made the album.

One or two I STILL haven't.

NO NO NO NO

If you are going to post it, do it right.

I'm sure you can see the error of your ways.

Your taste in everything makes my 90's inner child smile.

Also Its always sunny in Philadelphia

Life didn't have an intro at all, iirc besides a flashing of the title card.

And imo that was a fucking great procedural

 

[Celes Chere]

fuck

yeeeeah

 

[Dana Scully]

Game of Thrones is probably my most favourite intro of all time.

FUCK YEAH RECESS:

Always liked the BSG intro song:

And the Stargate SG1 theme oozes cheesy scifi heroism:

Also how has no one posted this yet:

Maybe you can hire the motherfucking A-Team:

OH FUCK YEAH A-TEAM!!!!

I blast that shit in my car

 

[Lumina]

Loved the Pokemon and Recess, good old times.
My personal favorite is the main theme of Family Guy. I loveeeeeeeeeee the show, and lost count of how many times have I listened to the intro.

Oh! And this one:
