What is your favorite tv show theme song?

[sjp]

Mine lately stuck in my head threes company.

[b i o n i c]

tv themes are some of the best little pieces of music written. most of the time they have to be concise and include the whole arc of a song

the price is right (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8iOmVd1W_g&feature=related) is one of my favorites

and the inspector gadget theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0o1-PlON3ss) of course

geekorama(y)

"I Know, You Know" from Psych (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzI1uM6S-jM) (Can't ever get it out of my head! All of their songs are so damn catchy!! I also love the Spanish version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJJAb_7eXP0))

And every single cartoon/tv show I used to watch when I was a kid...those always had the best theme songs! :p

And does this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXKXrditdvU) count? Probably not...but I love it anyway! AVGN is my hero. :cool:
