The Fall Guy deserves a mention. No Simpsons, Sanford & Son, Welcome Back Kotter, Miami Vice, MASH, Cheers = no good list
For some reason nobody's mentioned this, but I would say that The Brady Bunch's intro is arguably the most popular. It should have been number 1.

I agree that any such list without Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is garbage. Go out in public tomorrow and say "In west Philadelphia born and raised..." and see what happens.

1) you guys are freaking old. 2) wonder years is awesome. i just like the way that we get the story from arnolds POV. It's kinda like Stand by Me.
Also to add with these great links: http://www.80stvthemes.com (Also has commericials, games show themes, and network promos (mostly audio site). Has the OTHER Bosom Buddies theme) Wow, TV Nostalgia Central here. This thread definitely deserves a
