(During this long holiday weekend, we're filling up on content-free but hopefully fun discussion posts. Don't yell at us, we're just trying to enjoy the weekend off with fireworks and BLTA sandwiches!)

TV credits are at a low point. Most series now skip theme songs and credits sequences in favor of a hypersimple title card, often just black and white, with nothing more than the show title and an authorial credit for the pilot writer/creator. We get it, but also...YAWN.

Still, in those places where economics or allegiance to tradition keeps them alive (premium cable, NBC), credits hold a special place in our TV-loving hearts, so we want to discuss the best and worst of the genre and find out from you what "theme songs" make you do a happy dance every time they come onscreen. We'll show you ours if you show us yours:
 



Medium: OK, Medium is on CBS now, but we'll give NBC the points just the same since that's where this sequence launched. Eerie and mystical, just like Allison DuBois' gift, this song and these visuals never get old.

I do like the Medium intro! :) O/T but I was so thrilled when ER ditched its crappy intro in return for the original (and by far the best) intro for the finale!
