Oh gosh...I loved those Nickelodeon shows growing up! Salute Your Shorts, The Adventures of Pete and Pete, Hey Dude....

I loved the theme to Clarissa Explains it All

But other ones I love...Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Friends....those are my favorites!

Navy JAG
Walker, Texas Ranger.
Doctor Who

I always liked the scene from the movie M*A*S*H when "Suicide Is Painless" is played - it fits the mood.

Has anyone mentioned:

Cheers

WKRP in Cincinnati (both of them!) These are the opening lyrics:

"Baby, if you've ever wondered
Wondered whatever became of me
I'm living on the air in Cincinnati
Cincinnati
WKRP

Got kind of tired of packin' and unpackin'
Town to Town
Up and down the dial
Maybe you and me
Were never meant to be
Just maybe think of me
Once in a while
I'm at WKRP in Cincinnati.

About the closing lyrics:
The ending theme song, a cool little rock ditty, was done by a group of studio musicians in Atlanta, GA. The words are unintelligible for a very simple reason -- there are no words! The vocal was basically a "scratch" track, i.e., a vocal track recorded solely to help the musicians and the show's producers get a feel for the song and the lyric melody. But the producers liked it as is, and it was never changed, so there aren't any words, just meaningless gibberish! (from www.imdb.com)

the theme song to Gilligan's Island is pretty catchy.. def one of my favs
Pepper Ann, and Doug also had the best theme songs
