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?

I've always loved the X-Files intro, it fits so well and has stuck with me ever since I first watched it.

    Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield.

    Definitely the perfect song for the show, but any person that listens to this song on its own in public is someone that you should stay away from

    It was composed by Mark Snow. Tubular Bells is the theme from The Exorcist.

    Fuck, you're right.

    I guess tubular bells is good on its own as the theme for the Exorcist, but I also stand behind anybody that listens to tubular bells in public without a good justification of someone you should avoid.

    But that also holds true for people that listen to the X-Files theme song.
