TV Theme Songs I Loved, But Never Cared For The Show

 I think we all have TV theme songs we were pulled in by for shows we never really cared for, or maybe it's just me and I am a weirdo.  Either way, here is my list:

5. Daria



  I was never a big fan of the show. I watched the first show because it was a spin-off of Beavis and Butthead and a few more because my sisters loved the show and we only had 2 TVs in the house. But I always loved the theme song and it still gets stuck in my head whenever I hear it. It fits the mood of the show well and it's just a great theme song.

4. ER



 ER never really captured my interest as a kid, but my mom watched it a good deal and it would come on before WCW Nitro on Monday night, and the theme was awesome. It really does a good job of representing the suspense of the show and putting you in the right mood for it. I really enjoyed this theme.

3. Baywatch



I would always watch the intro for Baywatch, even though I have only seen a select group of episodes because it was never really on my must watch list. I owe this one to my sister as well, as she watched this show every time it came on. I did watch the episode that had Hogan vs Vader, and I think Savage vs Flair on it. I am not sure, but I think they had a Gilligan's Island theme in one episode as well.


2. Silk Stalkings



 I would always hear this theme as it would come on after Monday Night Raw. I would be getting ready for bed and hear the suspenseful music that was typical of a cop drama, but what set this theme apart from the rest was the howl, gun, and the scream. It does a good job of making you want to watch the show. I just usually had school to get up for in the morning though, and didn't get to watch it because of that. I am currently watching this show now on YouTube, and it's pretty good. But the intro is the highlight.

1. Beverly Hills, 90210



 I hated this show and would always give my sister a hard time for watching this, but for some reason I always enjoyed the theme song. Whenever I would hear it as a kid I would run into the room and get hyped up, dancing all over the place. Then when the show started I would fight for the remote with everything I had or I would run out of the room immediately. I still can't explain it, but I like this theme song. This was the main reason I made this article.

Well that's my list. I know this article is short but I hope you enjoyed it.

I'm right there with you about tv intos. It always bugs me that I like the into but not show.

I loved the Silk Stockings theme song, and totally forgot how rockin ER's was!

Whatever the cause for creating it, I have a feeling it will strike a cord with others who are "in the closet" on their appreciation for intro music of shows they dislike. :)

It's brave of you to admit to liking the songs for these terrible, terrible shows. LOL.

I'm sure there are several shows that I enjoyed the theme song for but didn't actually care to watch the show, but I don't know of any that I actually despised the show (as I do 90210) and yet still enjoyed the theme song. Something about my hatred of a show blinds me to any redeeming qualities of said show.
