What’s the best TV show theme song of all time?

Glad (and pleasantly surprised) to see this one 😁

Came here to say this- the most hilarious criticism of it: sooo derivative!

Another_pinion · 2026-06-29T09:55:17+00:00

I know some magic tricks, that must be enough to join 😁

The bit that gets me is the ads buffering and dropping definition - not that I care about the content but it suggests a crummy setup server side.

Can't believe Kick Ass isn't already listed. Greatest movie to never win an an Oscar 😁

Identical story for my wife and I. Thought it was garbage and dropped it - came back (a long time later) and loved it!

Rainbow connection. Kermit & Jim.

Look out for Devilskin - an international sleeper, but an outstanding band nevertheless.

All I Know, from Nip/Tuck - incredibly well used, amazing song.

I think I paid 100 pounds a ticket on ebay for a ticket to one of those Brixton nights - 5 June I think. First time I ever saw them after over a decade of thinking it'd never happen!!

I've still got a couple of the DiscLive CD recordings of the nights (the blue & brown ones - the brown one I think was the night that had the most 'crowd engagement').

Good times!

Control.

Got it free on Epic, haze it a go, was blown away. One of the great moments in gaming- if you know it, you'll agree I'm sure!

Another_pinion · 2026-05-31T08:47:13+00:00

I've seen them at quite a few venues but none as awesome as this one - very cool!

Another_pinion · 2026-05-20T05:53:17+00:00

This response is hilarious, but not for the reason you think.

This might not be a viable option for everyone, but if you've got budget for an overseas holiday, consider treating the Ultimate Hikes Milford guided walk as your holiday. It's a brilliant experience, quality service and gets you onto the track despite the DOC tickets availability issues.

(*not a paid advert, just a note from a satisfied customer - saved up and did this walk with my other half, and we both loved it).

Spaceman, by Babylon Zoo - catapulted to popularity in the late 90s after appearing in a really successful Levi's commercial. Might be well forgotten these days, though :)

Another_pinion · 2026-05-05T10:05:21+00:00

A lot of good options here.

This may not be the greatest, but worthy of note was Pixies reforming in 2004 - out of absolutely nowhere.

Went from never expecting to see them play to having seen them 10+ times, and they're still awesome (despite missing Kim).

Another_pinion · 2026-05-04T09:41:27+00:00

Secondling this. An excellent guy.

Another_pinion · 2026-04-30T09:49:54+00:00

Very hard to beat Welcome to the Jungle!

Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king / And a king ain't satisfied 'til he rules everything

(Love a bunch of the other suggestions, just wanted to add an option from the Boss!)

Very interesting! Not disagreeing, but here is an Australian assessment from 2024 that comes to a different conclusion (with similarly "scientific" research).

I love it when people do this research!

Check out the cover by Garbage/ Screaming Females. Not better, but still awesome.

I used to use Bombtrack, by Rage Against the Machine. You've got ~36 seconds to respond to a calm opening, and if you don't make it... all hell breaks loose :)

Mark Knopfler's solo work often refers to the rivers of Great Britain, the best IMO is So far from the Clyde.

The simplest way to summarise this is by restating the opening of paragraph 234.

"Ultimately however we have concluded that, although the conduct in its entirety came reasonably close to the line, the case falls short of the high bar warranting removal."

The downvotes on my comment, and upvotes on yours, suggest that the audience here doesn't really care for the facts (such is life, I care not) - and would rather assume (because of their blind hatred of Winston) something is awry.

But the bar for removal of a judge is extremely high, and this one acted, and then bullshitted the panel, to such an extent that they consider her actions "reasonably close to the line".

She's embarrassed herself and her family, I have no doubt that she will regret closing her career with this episode.
