TV Theme Songs You Wouldn’t Be Ashamed To Have On Your Playlist



The art of the TV theme song is somewhat of a dying one. The world no longer moves to the beat of just one drum and the era of a lengthy ditty played over shots of a photogenic cast is all but over. It’s no wonder, fewer and fewer people watch TV live and instead prefer to watch on a DVR or a computer where opening credits are easy enough to fast forward through. That being said, there are a few current TV themes that are definitely worth your notice. While they may not all have been written expressly for their shows, they are all performed by artists that have an impressive and enjoyable catalogue worth exploring. So if someone catches you with any of these nine songs on your playlists, don’t be embarrassed. They’re impossibly catchy.

also has massive attack's entire catalog been licensed for use in tv shows because "angel" seems like the go-to song for moodiness

My fave theme songs:







I fucking love opening credits, man. Too lazy to embed the rest but also included on my faves list would be the theme songs to: Family Matters, Parenthood, Growing Pains (esp the last season, the acapella version), Everwood, Psych, etc.
