Do ending theme songs count? Anyway, worst: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZFdKW43yGM edit: Sash! posted:Worst: an unresolvable tie of dozens and dozens of shows While this is objectively true, I'm having a hard time picking a "best" because I like too many theme songs.

The Miami Vice theme has to be up there as one of the best. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiErxa9YDeo

I'm just going to assume ending themes count, and I'm going to add multiple favorites, because that's how the thread goes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxUbgEHP2Qg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWHVvXUw-RU

sticklefifer posted:On that note, Tank! is still great and I hope they bring it back for the live action series. I like Tank but nowhere near as much as Real Folk Blues. Plus, I sang Real Folk Blues for karaoke so I have a soft spot for it. When I took Japanese in college, someone introduced me to Cowboy Bebop in an "I know you don't like anime, but" kind of way, and the theme songs were by far the best part, imho. Speaking of anime theme songs that I've sung in karaoke... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xKWiCMKKJg

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5ZLRqVPupo Really all the Disney Afternoon shows that were based off a movie had rad arrangements for the theme song. Pinterest Mom posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAkL2-vh2Sk Perhaps the greatest example of an extremely lopsided good intro:good show ratio.

It may not be obvious because of the links versus words, but we have three votes for The Greatest American Hero in this thread so far. It seems to be the front-runner. Believe it or not, I'm walking on air...
