Best CURRENT theme...

[RobertScorpio]

What TV show, airing new episodes in the here and now, has the best THEME song? It seems that theme songs are going the way of the Drive-in theatres, but there are a few...


The Big Bang theory...I love that song they use at the start...

Smallville..have always like that song..

BATMAN/BRAVE AND BOLD...

[The Evil Dead]

Dexter, absolutely.

 

[Canadave]

^ Second. Dexter's theme is great, and weirdly fits the show perfectly.

And as a Barenaked Ladies fan, I do admit I like the BBT theme song, as well, even if I'm not a fan of the show.

 

[Starbreaker]

Chuck makes perfect use of a Cake tune.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

It's either "LOST" or "Strictly Come Dancing".

 

[Broccoli]

I am going to throw a vote for an old favorite: The Simpsons

 

[Mistral]

Bones. The Crystal Method jams.

 

[Gary Mitchell]

There really isn't much to choose from anymore. NCIS is pretty good.

 

[T'Baio]

I would say the House theme, the reworking of "Teardrop" by Massive Attack, is my favourite.

 

[Kegg]

Dexter, absolutely.

This is the correct answer.

 

[Canadave]

I am going to throw a vote for an old favorite: The Simpsons

Oh yeah... I guess that's still technically current.

 

[Servo]

Doctor Who. Although that one will probably be changing when series 5 starts in the spring.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

Dexter.

"The Simpsons" shouldn't count, even if the show is still on; the theme was written over 20 yeasr ago, and by a a now famous film composer.


And "Doctor Who" shouldn't count since it's an adaptation of the late Ron Grainer's theme.


It's hard to find a "theme" these days between songs, twinkles (like Stargate: Universe), and short sound scapes pieces of nothing like "LOST".

I agree with some of you on Dexter.

But I'll add the full version of Craig Ferguson's Late Late Show theme just to be different.

 

[SVD]

Thirded on Dexter's theme, at least the one from season one if the havent changed it. (could only stand the mind f*** of the first)

Seconded on Late Late show

Heroes' "sound-scape of nothing" is on my list of good ones.

Wheel of Fortune has a jazzy number

 

[ALF]

Dexter's good... Sons of Anarchy's theme is growing on me, too.

 

[RobertScorpio]

Umm...Pheius and Pherb is growing on me..oye!

The Tudors, Fringe, NCIS, Doctor Who and Lie to Me all come to mind.

Big Bang Theory, Dr. Who and Dexter are all excellent.

But how could we overlook The Who, er, CSI?

And the most consistently good part of Fringe is its theme!
