And Now . . . Another List of the Best TV Theme Songs
Earlier this week, Yahoo! released the results of a survey, which named "Gilligan's Island" the best TV theme song of all time.
Well, now "TV Guide" has put out its own list . . . and "Gilligan's Island" didn't crack the Top 10. Instead, they gave "Cheers" the top honors. ("Cheers" was #2 on the Yahoo! list.)
Here are "TV Guide's" Top 10:
1. "Cheers"
2. "The Mary Tyler Moore Show"
3. "Hawaii Five-O" . . . This is the ORIGINAL one, not the re-recorded version from the show that's on now.
4. "M*A*S*H"
5. "Friends"
6. "The Beverly Hillbillies"
7. "Route 66"
8. "The Jeffersons"
9. "Sesame Street"
10. "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air"
"TV Guide's" list includes 60 TV themes . . . but only the Top 10 are ranked. "Gilligan's Island" did make the Top 60. (You can find the complete list at TVGuide.com)
