Topic: All time favorite......

Came across this subject idea on one of my trout fishing sites........What is your all time favorite T.V. show theme song? You know.....the one that sticks in your head all day from just a suggestion! Here are a few:

"Gilligan's Island" - Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale.....
"Mr. Ed" - A horse is a horse of course.....
"Green Acres" - Farm livin' is the life for me......
"Hawaii Five-O" - Da da dit dit da da........
And one of my favorites "Miami Vice".

Set the way-back machine and let's see what you got.

Why don't we eliminate all the warning labels and let things sort themselves out?

Rollin, rollin, rollin,
keep those doggies rollin,
though the streams are swollen,
Rawhide
Don't try to understand 'em
Just rope and tie and brand 'em
Soon we'll be livin high and wide

Sounds corny, but the wistling opening for the Andy Griffith Show sticks with me.  My older brother and I would try like hell to wistle along with it when we were little kids but our feable attempts would make each other laugh...and everyone knows you can't wistle while laughing

OMG this is too much fun, a virtual trip back through dead brain cells. Rick, I actually purchased this 45rpm, was also one of my fav shows. Don't ask me what was on the B side, it must have been awful.

Re: All time favorite......

I just stumbled across an old favorite from my childhood on an off beat U verse channel recently with a killer theme....Peter Gunn. Also covered by the Blues Bros. Love the Sopranos theme and my new favorite is This Life from Sons of Anarchy.
