I think it's Rockford.

In fact, I think Rockford had the best intro for any TV show in history.


Thank you very much

Edit: when I met my current girlfriend, one of the first things we bonded over was a love of the Rockford Files. Thus my TD handle.

Surprised at no mention for MASH.

More recently - Malcolm in the Middle.

These are all awesome. The 80's were definitely the heyday for TV theme songs.

I thing as far as looking at it from a pure "best song" perspective, it would have to be Great American Hero or Perfect Strangers.

Did anyone mention Cheers yet? That would be my vote for my favorite anyway.

The Brady Bunch.


Not sure if that was original though.

Was Three's Company original? I was born in the 80s

2)Golden Girls
This was not original to the series - it was a hit song from 1978
which became the theme song years later.
