Recently started watching old 90s and 80s shows just for the fun of it, because I’m bored with all of the new stuff that’s coming out, and I fell into Knight Rider.

My review of the show so far aside, it’s got straight up the most banger theme music I have heard in a TV show in a very long time.

It got me wondering what other TV shows have really great theme songs?

    Good question.

    I suddenly couldn’t remember what McGyver theme was but I remembered it’s quite a banger.

    And I wasn’t mistaken.

    I think I had it on like my Nokia 3210 as a custom ringtone.

    One that wasn’t good but definitely an earworm:

    But currently I’ve got the Voyager theme stuck in my head but it’s somewhat boring, but all the Star Trek themes are good. Perhaps best is ofc It’s been a long road from Enterprise.

    Someone said “Buffy” and that was good, yeah. I don’t think “Angel” is bad either. https://youtu.be/vpAol_17mO0 sounds a bit like Apocalyptica tbh

    Now that I checked quite a few, seems like in the late 90’s early 00’s lots of openings had barely a theme song, 80% just the main character recapping the premise of the show
