SciFi fan here, so.... Top 5:

Battlestar Galactica - Yes, I am enough of a BSG geek that I know what the words mean in English.

Lexx - Used different songs depending on the season, the one I'm thinking of is called Battle of the Universe.

Firefly

Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
There's no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can't take the sky from me...

Star Trek: TNG - Bit of a trip down nostalgia lane, DS9 works too on a lesser scale. I used to be pretty obsessed with ST, but in later years realized I was just utterly obsessed with one episode, and mainly watched the rest hoping there would be another episode that awesome.

Millennium - Not 100% sure that this qualifies as SciFi, but hey, it's my list and I'm adding it. One of the most moving, haunting pieces of music I have ever heard.

Aaaannd I'm gonna go ahead and put Durham County on the list too, even though it isn't SciFi at all - reminds me a lot of Millennium's theme, only a bit creepier.

Here's the first Gerry Anderson "marionette" show ever made (way before Stingray or The Thunderbirds) I watched this everyday in Portugal when I was 4 way back in '60 Supercar and I still remember the theme...

I have Danny Elfman's Futurama theme in my ipod mp3 rotation. I always feel just a little bit better when I hear it.

The title of this thread is Favorite Television Theme Songs, null, not Every Feaking Theme Song You Can Google. I'm going to assume your first post is the one that's actually on topic, kiss the rest goodbye. You can run your race to a million useless posts somewhere else.

Picking an absolute favorite is pretty tough, as it changed over 4 decades of TV watching, even the same show.

So I will choose one which even to this day brings a smile to my face.

Gilligan's Island, second version (the Professor and Mary ann, not And the rest)

Millennium

Magnum, P.I.

Police Squad!

Theme music from House, M.D. is my all-time favorite.

I never get tired of the CSI themes-- all those Who songs!!

I loved the theme from The 4400. Anybody even watch that? It was a pretty good show. There were just too many shows featuring mutants with superpowers that year.

From childhood, loved the Batman theme, Munsters, Addams Family, I Dream of Jeannie, Electric Company (so funky!), Sesame Street, The Carol Burnett Show.

You beat me to it Sarge, I don't really like the Stones, but I think that is a classic.

At the moment, I just have the opening sequence and closing sequence songs from Phineas & Ferb running through my head.

For contemporary TV theme songs this one is definitely my current favorite Straight Up and Down by the Brian Jonestown Massacre---Broadwalk Empire.
