What is your favorite tv theme song/composition?

Since many on Audiogon are baby boomers television must have been a big part of your childhood. In grade school my mother allowed me to stay up until 10pm to watch Barnaby Jones. She knew I wouldn't make it past the great Jerry Goldsmith theme. My current favorite is the dark and haunting John Rubinstein composition for the ABC drama Family.

Thought about it and my old school favorite of all, is "I Spy." Very "cool," "jazzy," and "hip," for the times. Surprised it didn't get mentioned.

Not exactly in same frame as most others but I love the current opener to "Meet the Press" the compositions triumphant close at opener is something I really like.
While the show isnt my style the song to "True Blood" is pretty cool.
