I saw some Prisoner episodes on YT. Weird in a great way. I really love old television and movie themes.

The jazz waltz opening of Mannix is awesome. So are the opening credits to UFO. The Brit sci fi with the purple haired babes on the moon.

The theme from “Speed Racer” and “The Rockford Files” should be higher.

For sheer longevity the whistling theme from Dr. Who should have made the list

No Firefly theme? Most theme songs I will skip last. A few like Firefly and Hawaii 5-0 I will replay if watching on the DVR.

I’ll add: “The Avengers”, “The Virginian”, “Mission Impossible,” “ Route 66” , “Peter Gunn,” , “Rawhide,” and the original version of “ Gunsmoke. “

All good choices. Also, "Daniel Boone" and the "Beverly Hillbillies" come to mind.

Theme from Mannix, by Lilo Schifrin.

Great jazz arrangement.

Gilligan's Island theme was a sea shanty... very cool.

Beverly Hillbilly's theme "The Ballad of Jed Clampett" was a bluegrass masterpiece.

Nope, everyone is wrong. It was Nelson Riddle and the theme to Route 66.
