The Incredible Hulk, and The Courtship of Eddie's Father. Both starring Bill Bixby coincidentally enough, although I don't think he had anything to do with the theme songs.

EDIT: Ooo, and Lost in Space. That one was cool too. This isn't a good topic for a poll, there are too many.

Yeah, I'd vote for Bab5 - that music really set the grand theme for the program. Some other goodies:

Vids (Obscure, anarchic late night UK film reviews)
Ren & Stimpy (worth learning the guitar for)
Supergran (The Big Yin!)

Check out www.themez.co.uk - cool site.

Wow....

I loved B5 season 4's theme. I think because I loved S4, what with all the funky special effects bonanza, but the music was the real ticket that sold me on the series (I came into it late, a friend said hey, you might like this....)

What about "The Jetsons"? Nice jazzy feel...

I agree about "The Addams Family" - very nice theme song.

If you want recognizable, how about "Gilligan's Island" (of course, there were 2 Versions of that theme song...).

Oh yeah, the theme to "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (TV show, not the movie).

Great. Now I have TV theme songs running through my head... "WKRP in Cincinnati..."

Doctor Who!!!! My god man, how could you forget the good doctor

As for Babylon 5, the season that had the Shadows and the Centauri bombing the Narn homeworld in the opening credits had the best theme of them all (2nd or 3rd season).
