And if we're doing songs with lyrics as well and not just tunes... Friends is good. The Cheers theme is a classic. And Sinatra's Married... with Children theme is great too... Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Family Guy and The Adams Family are all good too. [/B]

Yeah, we can do lyrics too. Does anyone know the lyric to the M.A.S.H theme tune?

Suicide is Painless (Mash Theme Song)

Suicide is Painless (Mash Theme Song)
(Mike Altman and Johnny Mandel)

Through early morning fog I see
Visions of the things to be,
The pains that are withheld for me,
I realize and I can see...

That suicide is painless,
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.

The game of life is hard to play,
I'm going to loose it anyway,
The loosin' card I'll someday lay;
So this is all I have to say...

That suicide is painless,
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.

The only way to win is cheat
And lay it down before I'm beat
And to another give my seat
For that's the only painless feat.

That suicide is painless,
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.
And you can do the same thing if you please.

Thanks

yeah, The fresh prince is a classic, everyone knows the words.

The Wonder Years
The theme from The BBC film review programme Film 2006 is "I wish I knew how it would feel to be free" performed by the Billy Taylor, Trio, its one of my favourite pieces of music.

I liked the theme song to MacGyver.

Composer Mike Post was responsible for some of the greatest theme tunes ever :

Here is a discography of his themes :

Other favourites :

The Littlest Hobo
Magnum
Macgyver
Only Fools and Horses
Knight Rider
The Equalizer
Different Strokes
Cheers
Golden Girls

For me the 80's was the golden age of tv themes, nowadays themes are lame, usually by some semi succesful, psuedo indie band

is it comprehensible.....

I love the Snooker theme on the BBC(UK), the Grand Prix which is The Chain by Fleetwood Mac and the Top Gear theme, i think its called Jennifer by the Allman Brothers.

Thundercats
The X Files
At least one of the Dragonball Z ones
Original X-Men cartoon
Fantastic Four cartoon

Oh yes X-men. Good one.

Let's see........

The Brady Bunch.

is it comprehensible.....

ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES

stick a pony in me pocket ,ill get the suitcase from the van.
if you want the bestns and you dont ask questions then brother im your man.
cos where i come from theres a mystery,thats like the changing of the seasons and the tides in the sea.
heres the ome thats driving me beserk , why do only fools and horses work

Dallas
Thundercats
The A Team
Knight Rider
Cheers
Only Fools And Horses
Red Dwarf
Smallville
CSI: All versions

I'm going with The X-Files and Doctor Who as my favorites. I have the X-Files theme as a ringtone on my phone right now, and I need to put the Doctor Who theme on there as well...

All three CSI themes. Without A Trace..Thundercats. He-Man.

Like Torchwood's theme.

Battlestar Galactica

I like Torchwoods theme, but it's too short on the actual show for me, they should use the extended version for the opening, it's a lot better.

Growing up I liked the Gentle Ben and Flipper theme..All Star Trek of course. Le me not forget The Jefferson's, Good Times, The A Team and of course Happy Days.

Ducktales!

I think American Idol is great because it is so recognizable.

Stargate, Star Trek, and MacGyver get my vote.

Rainbow Brite (lolz), My Secret Identity, He-man/ She-ra, Bio-man, MacGyver, Smallville, Charmed and Felicity
