Adventures of Pete & Pete...honest...give it a listen and odds are you'll be able to place it if you heard it again in 3-4 months

I think theme song and I think Twilight Zone, X-Files, any animated show (Flintstones, Jetsons, Simpsons) and Miami Vice.

IIRC, TV Guide did a poll on this a few years ago, and the award went to "Hawaii Five-O".

 

I'll put my money on that too, simply for the universal recognition of that theme.

The Married with Children theme is an old Sinatra song he cut like 30 years before the show came out, so that gets recognized for other reasons.

 

I'd go with Cheers, Gilligan's Island and Hawaii Five-0. I mark for the Rockford Files and Sandford and Son themes.

Peter Gunn

This should win just because it has a whole generation of fans who know it as the "Spy Hunter" theme.

Mr. Rogers would be my pick.

 

"It's a beautiful day in the neigh-bor-hood..."

 

C'mon, everybody's heard that one.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this yet:

 

Come and knock on our door ...

We've been waiting for you ...

Where the kisses are hers and hers and his,

Three's company too.

 

Come and dance on on our floor...

Take a step that is new ...

We've a loveable space that needs your face,

Three's company too.

 

You'll see that life is a frolic and laughter is calling for you ...

Down at our rendez-vous,

Three's company, too!
