Remember when TV shows actually had theme songs? What are some of your favorite TV songs (I'm talking about the song not the show). Some of mine are: Hogan's Heroes, Dick Van Dyke Show, I Love Lucy, Love American Style, Laverne and Shirley.

To refresh your memory, here is an interesting link:
TV Theme Music and Songs - TelevisionTunes.com
 
Some of my favorite TV theme songs: Hawaii 5-0, Magnum PI, The Fall Guy, Charlies Angel, the A Team, Roswell...
 
Does anyone remember the theme song to "My Mother, the Car"? I still know every word! When I sing it, I feel like a kid!
 
The Internet is a wondrous thing! Thanks for the link.

I used to sing the theme from Gilligan's Island to my babies as lullabies (forever warping them I'm sure). Would use the Beverly Hillbillies song as a backup. And the Patty Duke show theme for my daughter and her cousin, who were born a week apart ("they're cousins, identical cousins, and you'll find, they laugh alike, they talk alike, sometimes they even walk alike, you can lose your mind!")
 
I remember all of the theme songs from childhood. And the commercials, too. Can't help it.
I guess my brain is just a sponge for that stuff. Too bad the useful stuff doesn't go in as easy.

David 61, thanks for the link. I was surprised to find one of my favorites: Cheyenne. And it was fun re-listening and reliving Father Knows Best and Tp Cat.
 
Mission impossible has got to be up there as one of best
tv show theme tunes ever
