I kind of lean toward Peter Gunn, but there are so many.

Mancini wrote it, btw.

The Jonny Quest theme is fantastic. Punches way above its weight as a show theme. Not far behind in the same vein is the theme for Cowboy Bebop.

My two favorite are very similar. Hawaii Five-O and The Prisoner.

All of the Star Trek tv series opening music is exceptional.
Beautifully composed and performed.

I loved everything about Burn Notice, including the Theme song.

I thought it was a great show. There is NOTHING to compare to the old shows. The Writers, Scripters, Actors, Directors went Off the rails and we now have NOTHING WORTH WATCHING.

CONTRATS, LEFT WING NUTS.

I love Ryan Reynolds, and that last piece of DRECK about the Hitman’s Wife’s Boyfriend’s daughter in law was a

DISASTER.

HOW MANY DIRTY WORDS CAN YOU SAY IN A TWO HOUR MOVIE.

TOO MANY!!!!!
