Alright, lets cover Miami Vice first. Its iconic, its awesome, and it deserves to be higher but it got beaten out plain and simple.
Now, the Xfiles. I got big problems with this entry. I have always said that I have to judge based on what is submitted. What is this? What did you do to the Xfiles theme?
This is the X-files theme. You likely place in the top 3 with it. That techno, house funk garbage over the top just absolutely ruins a near perfect theme.
still waiting on my 80âs entry, but i agree about X-Files (almost submitted it, dammit). Not sure what that 5-minute thing is, maybe itâs from the recently-released reboot?
Both of these songs are awesome in their own way. I love Fraggle Rock and, for pretty obvious reasons, it brings on a lot of Labyrinth feelings. Such a fun, upbeat, killer song.
At first, the Twin Peaks theme was at the bottom of my list, but that shit drills into your skull and holds you hostage. Its incredibly thematic for the show and I really really loved listening to it.
I think it just sounds that way because itâs from the 90âs. I didnât watch Twin Peaks until Netflix, so the theme song and imagery looked super Canadian to me.
lmao i tried so hard not to pick a duplicate. and to pick unique stuff. i mean there were five Wire options, if iâd known those were easy points i wouldâve gone for that instead.
Before I get to the podium, aside from shaming you once more for leaving out The Super Mario Brothers Super Show, another couple huge misses from the 80s
Aretha absolutely kills this song and it goes so well with the style of show that A Different World was. Animaniacs is the perfect example of a narrative song about what is happening in the credits, and I loved it growing up. Aside from missing out on the Super Mario Brothers Super Show, the podiums for both of these decades is perfect in my eyes.
I actually didnât have either of the top two finishing where they did in the 90s when I first started listening, but man, this Oz theme is really a perfect theme song for the show. Its so good and just sticks with you the entire time the theme plays. I think âWell, shit, bout to go to prisonâ which is exactly what I should be feeling while the song plays.
And what more can be said about Ducktales that hasnât already been said. Its the best cartoon theme song ever. Go back to the 2010âs reveal and compare the two. They just donât compare. Its a perfect theme song.
LOL, I was holding off on commenting about the 2010 one because I didnât want to instantly give away my 80s submissionâŚbut based on the feedback then, I knew Iâd do well
The top spot is a tale of two different routes. The 80s theme I knew from moment one would be the top spot.
The 90s theme probably held every spot on the list at one point or another, but its a damn good song and encapsulates the 90s to a T.
In first place in the 80s
And in first place in the 90s
I mean, Come on. Both of these are the best examples of TV theme songs from their respective decades. The Night Court theme is 40 seconds of bliss, and the Blossom theme just makes me smile every time.
And with that, our journey ends. I donât know what the final scores are but if everyone wants to claim their entries I can make a list.
