Hell yeah I saw it. Loved that whole sequence with the theme playing over the top. Coolest movie since....maybe forever. Need to see it again to decide.

I hadn't picked up on the fact that they went for post 2000 shows only. That really does limit their choice. It's still a crappy list though.

I stand corrected.

But then you have Alias under the wrong heading - Bad robot!!!

(Or was that just the sound of you attempting to gnaw your own leg off in reaction to being reminded of the Trek lyrics? Its not that they're bad, its just impossible not to imagine them being performed by William Shatner... )

The Fall Guy and Dukes of Hazard. Plus that guitar riff from Buck Rogers.

While that list is absolute garbage, I can't stop laughing at the Jabba the Hutt parody of the Parks and Rec theme song. By the way, Parks and Rec and The Office and other shows on that list are very good in my opinion, but I never cared at all about their theme songs. I like the theme to the office but "Most Catchy?" Meh.

I started to do my own list and rail against them for excluding shows like Friends, Cheers, A-Team, The Jeffersons and Happy days but then I read their rule that the shows has to be post 2000 and discovered that's really hard. Besides Firefly what can we really add to the list?



I'm with you. And I was thinking maybe The Sopranos ("Woke Up This Morning"), but it started in '99, so misses the cut.

But if you want REAL catchy theme songs, stuff like the Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Andy Griffith Show, All In The Family, MASH, Flipper, Lassie, Maude, Welcome Back Kotter, WKRP In Cincinnati, and othrs way more than top that list. Hell, I never even knew "Alias" or "Boston Legal" *had* theme songs.

Really, anything from the 80s was awesome. The golden age of Saturday Morning cartoons. Perhaps the best possible era to grow up in.
