25 Greatest TV Theme Tunes Of All Time

8. Batman

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSaDPc1Cs5U N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N...BATMAN!!! Need I say more? I could just leave it at that. This theme is one of the most recognizable and simple theme songs there is and will ever be and is certainly one of the funnest themes to sing along to on this list despite the fact that it only really has one word throughout the song (which is even less than The Simpsons). Talking of The Simpsons, one of my favorite moments of all time has to be in the classic episode and one of their very best where The Simpsons join a cult (The Joy of Sect), because of this perfect Batman reference. You know what I am talking about right? N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N,N... Leader!

7. F.R.I.E.N.D.S

This was probably the last great theme tune to an American Sit-com I can think of (I don't watch them all so please in form me if you think I am wrong... maybe "The Big Bang Theory" though I hate the show) and great catchy theme songs used to be a staple of a great American sit-com. This theme is great, but no sit-com theme can beat the show at number one on this list. You know what it is by now don't you?

I am a recent Screenwriting for Film and Television graduate from the UK. I am an unashamed geek who loves everything Marvel, and anything Joss Whedon has ever touched (except for maybe Alien Resurrection and Titan A.E). My current favorite TV shows are Breaking Bad, Family Guy, House of Cards, Game of Thrones, American Horror Story, Homeland and Glee. I look forward to debating things with all of you in the future.
