    My vote goes to "The Jeffersons". That song just rocks.

    Hands down: Sanford and Son. The Bob Newhart Show's wasn't bad, either.

    With words: The Patty Duke Show

    Ever heard the lyrics to "Suicide is Painless", the theme song for M*A*S*H?

    Good stuff.

    The version with lyrics is in the movie M*A*S*H. It was written by director Robert Altman's son.

    Sanford and Son is right up there.

    But since we're going old school --- I think Rockford Files and Hawaii 5-0 would be my top two....

    It is. The guy who sings it in the movie is named Ken Primus. He's a broadway actor that I met at the Alley Theatre several years ago when he was the voice of Audrey II in Little Shop Of Horrors. He had some great backstage stories.

    I always found the Smurfs song to be the smurfiest.

    Do Peanuts holiday specials count? I'd vote for Vince Guaraldi for making me feel like it's the holiday season ever year.
