Cagney and Lacey by Bill Conti.

Dallas by Jerrold Immel.

Beat me to it @DPotter- love Hill Street Blues.

Soft spot for CHiPS and Wonder Woman.

Favourite ever probably the Pink Panther song over the closing credits 'there are lots of funny animals in all the world but did you ever see a panther that is pink...'

And of course the Muppets theme.

Thanks to this thread OH and i have been bursting into the Golden Girls theme tune off and on for the last hour!

PuppyMonkey · 01/06/2022 20:58

Moonlighting. I just loved that show and the music was the perfect introduction.

Cheers theme tune is also kind of life affirming I think. “Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name, and they’re always glad you came.” Makes me a bit weepy.
