I remember it well, as I had a crush on the blonde daughter. And what a train wreck Jan-Michael Vincent eventually made out of his life. What a dumbass.

I always liked the theme song from the original Doctor Who from the 60's.

There was a series from the early '80s, "Tucker's Witch" that had a very pretty theme. I don't know if it even made it one whole season, though.

Once upon a time when things were rotten. Not just food, but also kings were rotten
Everybody kicked the peasants. Things were bad and that ain't good
Then came Robin Hood
Soon the band of merry men begotten. They wore outfits made of plain green cotton.
Helping victims was their business. Boy oh boy was business good.
Good for Robin Hood
etc.

Honest to God, I never watched the show. But I gotta admit that I liked the opening theme to "Dynasty," written by the talented Bill Conti. A rather stately and impressive piece of orchestral music, especially the main melody played by the trumpets.

[And now, I'm ducking to avoid the rotten tomatoes...]

Definitely one of the best! Had the Ventures version on 45 when I was a kid. Way cool!

P.S. Wow, my 500th post, and I STILL haven't said anything (I'm so ashamed)!

Has anyone mentioned E.R., yet? I've always liked the theme to that show (gets my blood pumping), and I've wanted to do a industrial/rock'n'roll cover of it as a tribute to all EMTs everywhere.

Jonny Quest's theme was pretty jazzy too.

Man, THAT's an understatement. Jonny Quest's theme was HOT!

Tom's on the cover of my catalog... Really! Here's his bio from the endorser's section:

Tom Scott is a renowned composer, arranger, producer, musical director, and saxophonist. He has twenty-six solo recordings to his credit and for these efforts has earned twelve Grammy nominations and three Grammy Awards. His other career achievements include composing film scores, among them Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, Uptown Saturday Night, Stir Crazy, Hanky Panky, The Sure Thing, Just One Of The Guys, Soul Man, and Shakes the Clown. His television composing and conducting credits include themes for Family Ties, Starsky & Hutch, Square Pegs, the Academy Awards, the Emmy Awards, the Celebration At Ford's Theater, the People's Choice Awards, Comic Relief, the Carol Burnett Show, the Pat Sajak Show, and background scores for Baretta, Cannon, Barnaby Jones, Streets Of San Francisco, National Geographic Explorer, and numerous T.V. Specials and Network Movies. He has served as Musical Director for Joni Mitchell, George Harrison, Olivia Newton-John, and the GRP All-Star Big Band--and has toured five continents as leader of his own group. He recently produced two CD's for tenor vocalist Daniel Rodriguez (a.k.a. "The Singing Policeman") and is currently serving as Daniel's Music Director/Symphony conductor.

Tom's career as a guest recording artist spans more than 500 recordings by such diverse artists as Michael Jackson, Barbra Streisand, Quincy Jones, Thelonius Monk, Pink Floyd, Frank Sinatra, Aretha Franklin and Ravi Shankar.

His numerous contributions as a player and arranger include Joni Mitchell's Court And Spark, Steely Dan's Aja; hit singles like Carole Kings Jazzman , Paul McCartney's Listen To What The Man Said, Rod Stewarts Do You Think I'm Sexy, Blondie's Rapture , Captain & Tenilles Do That To Me One More Time, Whitney Houston's Saving All My Love For You; and on movie soundtracks such as Taxi Driver, Bladerunner, Heaven Can Wait, Sea Of Love, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Toy Story 2 and Monsters, Inc. He is featured in a highly-acclaimed performance of Shotgun in the Grammy-winning movie Standing In The Shadows Of Motown. His latest solo CD entitled "Newfound Freedom" was released in 2003.
