epic! (great series, I had a big crush on barbara bain :D)


the 70's rules for themes, always loved The New Avengers intro sequence with its british lion cutout of the union jack and the way they always cut it into the middle of the first scene.

Lots of good ones. airwolf definitely. Other then the premier episode the series generally sucked though. LOL
Original Battlestar Galactica. Both the original series and the music were better then the remake.

Lets not forget

COMBAT

The Refreshments were an incredibly good band. Love the story song style and the music was very bright.

One great one for me would be Get Smart opening, but can't link it on my phone.
