Recently started watching old 90s and 80s shows just for the fun of it, because I'm bored with all of the new stuff that's coming out, and I fell into Knight Rider.

My review of the show so far aside, it's got straight up the most banger theme music I have heard in a TV show in a very long time.

It got me wondering what other TV shows have really great theme songs?

Best of all time?
The Peacemaker season 1 Theme slaps and really sets the tone for rest of the show.

Peacemaker opening is definitely a good theme.

That's the kind of music you want to wake up for because you're so excited about your life you're gonna go and do something amazing.

Peacemaker Season One. Season Two just doesn’t have the same pep.

Just finished both and thought that at first but season 2 grew on me and fit the season theme better. Choreography for season 1 though was definitely more fun. Just songs though, both slap.

Just posted this same thought on another thread. I get stupid chills on the season one intro.

Had to scroll way too far to find the right answer.
