What is your favorite tv theme song/composition?


Since many on Audiogon are baby boomers television must have been a big part of your childhood. In grade school my mother allowed me to stay up until 10pm to watch Barnaby Jones. She knew I wouldn't make it past the great Jerry Goldsmith theme. My current favorite is the dark and haunting John Rubinstein composition for the ABC drama Family.

"Those Were the Days" from All in the Family . Great lyric.

I loved the theme from Ben Casey.
I think this one planted the seed of the love of Jazz for me when I was a wee toddler:

Youngster or oldster, it's hard not to enjoy this tune:

Route 66

...Or another high energy TV cop show theme Kojak with a great horn section.

...Or maybe a nice extended version of Voyage to the bottom of the sea

...Or even something spooky like Dark Shadows
