TV shows come and go (well, maybe with the exception of COPS and The Simpsons), but television theme songs will always stay with us, be it nostalgic or just plain annoying. On more than one occasion, I’ve caught myself humming most of the TV show theme songs listed below, the way I hum popular movie themes . 1. Six Feet Under theme music This one’s my all-time favorite TV theme. Brilliant theme music for a brilliant TV show. 2. Jeopardy theme I’ve lost count of the number of times some douchebag in college hummed the Jeopardy theme music whenever I took some time answering a professor’s question. 3. Pokemon theme I hated it, my kids love it. They win. 4. Remington Steele theme This is the theme to the show that introduced Pierce Brosnan to the world. 5. Transformers theme A classic I used to wake up and look forward to as a child. 6. Doctor Who theme Various arrangements of this British TV theme music have come out in the past four decades, all of them just as haunting and ethereal as the original. 7. Benny Hill theme Not really a fan of the show, but its theme music just gets me every time. 8. Mission Impossible theme One of the most recognizable TV themes of all time. 9. Friends theme song For ten seasons, Chandler, Joey, Ross, Rachel, Monica and Phoebe were there for us. 10. Batman theme song The various Batman animated series had cool themes, but nothing beats the “”Dadadadadadadadadadadadada…Batman!” of the 1960s Adam West series. 11. Simpsons theme It’s just unbelievable that we’ve been listening to this TV theme song for almost 18 years now. 12. Pink Panther theme Even though Steve Martin and Beyonce’s movie sucked, the theme remains unforgettable. 13. The Office theme Save for the grungy guitars, this theme reminds me of a number of 80s television theme songs. 14. Cops theme song “Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do…?” 15. Family Guy theme It’s just fascinating how a theme song to a very funny animated show that respects nothing and no one could be so preachy. 16. Futurama theme I liked The Simpsons theme better, but this theme sounded fun just the same. 17. Miami Vice theme Another classic from the 80s. 18. South Park theme No other TV show can put lyrics like “I like girls with big fat titties, I like girls with big vaginas” in its theme song and get away with it. 19. Barney theme song This is the TV theme song that makes me want to become a purple dinosaur murderer. 20. Jackass theme song I just love how the Jackass punks chose a song with a polka beat as its TV theme song. 21. All WWE theme songs I like most WWE theme songs, but I love Batista’s “I Walk Alone” song the best. And the fact that he is my favorite wrestler there has everything to do with it. 22. The X-Files theme This is one TV theme that was perfect for the series: creepy, ethereal and just plain awesome. 23. American Idol theme One of the most recognizable television theme songs today. 24. Law and Order theme One word: Sexy 25. CSI theme The song that introduced a whole new generation to The Who. 26. Smallville theme “Somebody saaaaaaaaaave meeeeeee…..” I’ve been listening to this song for seven seasons and it hasn’t gotten any less annoying. 27. Party Boy theme song I couldn’t get Images of Chris Pontius’ bouncing butt out of my head every time I hear this song. 28. Firefly theme Too bad they’ve canceled this one just when it was starting to pick up. 29. Spongebob Squarepants theme This TV theme song never fails to wake my little kid up in the morning. 30. Hawaii Five-O theme One of the most dynamic and recognizable TV show theme songs ever. 31. The Sopranos theme song I really am going to miss humming “got yourself a gun….” 32. Scooby-Doo theme I loved this song as a kid, and nothing can ever change that. 33. The A-Team theme As testosterone-laden as any TV theme music could ever get. 34. Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers theme For a show that sucked, it sure had one kickass theme song, if only for the nifty guitar licks. 35. Theme from Shaft Isaac Hayes, way before he got caught up in all that Scientology vs. South Park crap. 36. Survivor theme The show is in its 15th season, and I still couldn’t hum the notes of the opening theme right. 37. Kim Possible theme song Countless little girls around the world have picked up hairbrushes and sang along to this hip RnB television theme song. 38. Prison Break theme That ethereal female voice chanting at the beginning of this TV theme never fails to make the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. 39. 24 theme Its opening countdown sequence makes it absolutely one of the most distinct TV themes ever. 40. Knight Rider theme I almost fell off my seat when I heard one Bollywood-type dance song sample the unmistakable bass line of this TV theme. 41. Scrubs theme A funny show about life working in a hospital, minus the drama of your typical medical drama show, makes Scrubs a gem in itself, and the theme captures the light nature of the show perfectly. 42. Dallas theme My big sister watched this show regularly, and the theme just kinda stuck. 43. Sesame Street theme The theme song of my childhood. 44. Charmed theme Just thinking of this TV theme song makes me miss Alyssa Milano on TV even more. 45. Happy Days theme song Just caught some episodes of this show on reruns, but I found the harmony of the opening theme to be pretty cool. 46. Cheers theme song My parents watched this show, and I could still remember the theme. 47. Sex and The City theme Hopefully, this perky ditty makes it to the upcoming movie as well. 48. Wonder Woman theme Who could ever forget Lynda Carter jumping high, running fast and deflecting bullets in that sexy primary colored-costume, with a chorus of women singing “Wonder Womaaaaaaan!!!” in the background? 49. MacGyver theme Somehow, I find myself humming this television theme song every time I’m fixing something in the garage. 50. Spiderman theme song That Chinese woman’s version of this TV theme song in “Spiderman 2” really cracked me up. Phew… wow that was fun. I think next, I feel a solid list of prom themes coming up based off some uber funny (bad!) prom pictures I’ve just seen! Keep an eye out!
