Will Samson has a list of his Top Ten Classic TV Theme Songs along with a link to a huge archive of more of them. Not to quibble with Will’s list, but what about
M*A*S*H
All in the Family
Happy Days
The Andy Griffith Show
and, I don’t know, Simon & Simon.
I would however agree with
Cheers
WKRP in Cincinnati
Dukes of Hazzard
Chico and the Man
Welcome Back, Kotter
The Partridge Family
Hawaii Five-O
All of these in no particular order, of course.

What a guy!
