AMAZING THREAD IDEA! I LOVE tv theme songs!!! Was one of the things myself and OH bonded over in the early days. Mainly instrumental ones from the 80s such as...
Hill Street Blues (my favourite ever):

Taxi:

Magnum PI:

Quantum Leap:

and special mention for The Golden Girls:

Big into a composer called Mike Post who is famous for writing a lot of themes, three of the above in fact, a superbly talented man, check out his repertoire!
