Recently started watching old 90s and 80s shows just for the fun of it, because I’m bored with all of the new stuff that’s coming out, and I fell into Knight Rider.
My review of the show so far aside, it’s got straight up the most banger theme music I have heard in a TV show in a very long time.
It got me wondering what other TV shows have really great theme songs?
The soprano’s

I was a fan of Alabama 3 back in the late 90s. Small band, in the UK. I used to go to as many of their gigs as I could, usually in small clubs, pubs, side-stages at festivals. They released this fantastic album: ‘Exile on Coldharbour Lane’ (which is still on my rotation a quarter of a century later). Hoping they do well, because they’re awesome.
Then I got a contract gig in early 2000, in the US. Started figuring out US TV. There’s this new show, called the Sopranos which I’ve heard good things about. Put it on. Fucking hell, that opening theme tune! It’s the same band i used to see in venues that could barely hold 50 people! Mind blown, but so happy that they’ll have earned a shitton of money!
