I saw this article that had top 50 greatest tv theme songs of all time, so it made me curious as to what you guys think.

1. List your top 10 (or more) favorite theme songs of all time.

2. What are the 10 (or more) most memorable? You can separate singing from instrumental if you choose.

3. What are the 10 greatest tv show theme songs of all time?

You can pick whatever you choose, but here are some ideas...

Oh no, it's welcome thanks for sharing! . I'll have to look some of those up on YouTube, but what I recognize looks great ! Someone should probably put a theme thread in the "Movies" section too, but all is welcome here as well .
