10 Catchiest TV Theme Songs
8. The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air
Who needs an in-depth pilot episode or a 'previously on' intro when you can basically sum up your entire origin story in your opening theme?
'Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down' may have evolved into an internet meme reference to some of today's most unfortunate TV characters but that's because it was essentially just one big expositional meme for the classic '90s Will Smith-starring sitcom.
It's simple and effective, summing up how the show's protagonist (a fictionalized version of Will Smith would you believe?) ends up moving from West Philadelphia to Bel Air, but more than anything, it's a bloody catchy East coast hip-hop track that is arguably more timeless than the show itself... because there's a pretty solid chance that if you go up to someone and start telling them the Fresh Prince's story, they'll be able to reciprocate by telling you just how his world got turned upside down.
A classic that has stood the test of time, just seeing a picture of the show will undoubtedly have those lyrics flooding back to you like it's the '90s all over again.
