What do you think is the greatest theme song from a TV show? In my opinion it has to be the Walker Texas Ranger theme song:

Oh, and this one's also worth a mention:

And although the following is technically a remix and I can't remember ever seeing the show, I just love the sound of Pizzicato Five:

Funimation's opening for One Piece is by far my favorite anime theme song!

My second favorite is Fighting Dreamers from Naruto.

It's not really a song, but I like the "Lonely Man" theme from
the 1970s "Incredible Hulk" show.

Also I like the theme for the original "Star Trek" show,
of which my algebra/chemistry teacher had a hand in contributing to it.

Oh, I just remembered. How could I forget Doctor Who? Not sure which version is the best, though.

And although I've never seen Cowboy Bebop, I'm a sucker for big band and big beat:

As far as Transformers go, I must say I prefer the ones from seasons two and three in English.

The one from season one is kind of charming aswell, but mostly because it's such a complete mess, rhythmically.

Doctor Who. 'Nuff said.

...and the latest version of the theme that made its debut on Voyage of the Damned.....

The theme from Fushigi Yuugi has always had a special place in my heart 'cause my mom used to make me sing it (in Japanese) at all the family gatherings. Right now, though, I'm hooked on "Hajimari no Kaze" from Saiunkoku Monogatari. The full-length version is really pretty with the Chinese violin going on.

a few that come to mind are:

The Wire

The X-Files (i never fast forward through this intro, NEVER)
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=PHHZUhnfjls[/youtube]

Seinfeld's music really made the show so much better.

Band of Brothers also had great music all around
