Five Best Themes from Music-Based Shows
|
Five Best Medical-Based Shows
|
1. American Bandstand -- Admit it; you still want to
dance
2. The Monkees -- In many ways, helped to pioneer
music videos
3. The Partridge Family -- Terrific lyrics for such a light
comedy
4. This Is Tom Jones -- Sure the song was already his
theme, but it's still tough to beat
5. The Carol Burnett Show -- a little rambling but a lot of
fun
1. St. Elsewhere -- Quirky drama has
calming, low-key theme that makes sense
considering the finale'
2. M*A*S*H -- Calm beneath the storm
3. Medical Center -- Dr. Joe Gannon had
sirens in theme song that sounded like
chaos was about to break out at any moment
4. E/R -- Edgy and tense
5. Marcus Welby, M.D. -- Slow, gradual build,
especially nice for the '70s

Five Best Family Show Theme Songs
|
1. It Takes a Thief -- Like its lead character, Alexander
Mundy, theme is sleek and professional.
2. Switch -- Another Robert Wagner theme, this one's
bouncy and with a sense of humor.
3. The Man from U.N.C.L.E./The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. --
almost one and the same, but the edge goes to
Napoleon Solo.
4. The Saint -- Theme features an angelic 'solo' with
mounting tension.
5. Secret Agent -- Johnny Rivers's vocals carry it.
1. The Waltons -- rural, slightly laconic
2. The Brady Bunch -- first version, with a more
sophisticated sound, gave it a more
enduring, less novelty-esque feel.
3. The Munsters -- not the typical family,
granted, but electric guitar gives it the distinct
sound.
4. The Torkelsons -- slightly bittersweet song,
but Wynonna Judd's vocals are just right.
5. Leave It to Beaver -- on memories alone..
