10 Catchiest TV Theme Songs
Which of these classics made you sing along?
Sometimes television is so good that the latest episode of your favourite TV show leaves you thinking about what just happened for the longest of times. And then sometimes it's impossible to think about anything that went down in the episode because your brain is still busy replaying the show's theme song in your head over and over again.
Catchy theme songs certainly aren't anything new, as a host of television shows have played memorable pieces of music over their opening and closing credits throughout the years, but sometimes they take on such a life of their own that it's hard to do anything but sit and click your fingers as you belt out the TV tune that's still stuck in your head.
The very reason as to why so many people cringed when Netflix added a 'skip intro' button to their service, fans love their memorable theme songs so much that the mere idea of skipping them is considered damn near preposterous.
With all that in mind, sit back and relax as we look back at some of the catchiest theme songs in television history. Let's get humming...
10. Happy Days
0The Happy Days theme song is just so bloody feelgood that you can't help but smile every time you hear it. That's not only a testament to how the tune has stood the test of time, it's an example of just how well it matched the show it was written for.
An upbeat number dripping in '50s pop-rock, it encapsulated all the idyllic elements of the nostalgic life that the Ron Howard-starring show was renowned for. A jukebox anthem if there were ever one, the short to-the-point verses are catchy enough on their own as they build towards a hook that is instantly infectious, making it hard to do anything but click your fingers and shake your arms right along with every single beat.
Days are always happy when they're accompanied by this unforgettable soundtrack.
