The Fall Guy theme (the Unknown Stuntman)



others that I like, most of which have already been mentioned.

Andromeda (season 1 after that it's just horrible.
Dark Shadows,
Simon & Simon
Airwolf
Magnum P.I.
Buffy TVS
Hardcastle & McCormack ("Drive" not the lame assed "Back to Back")
Greatest American Hero
The Muppet Show (original)
Jack of All Trades (excellent) :D
Firefly
The Lone Ranger (excerpt from the William Tell Overture)
The A-Team
Battlestar Galactica

Actually most of the themes that I really like aren't songs. :)

Millennium had a good theme song as well. Very, very dreary cello music.

Go ahead, click one. I bet you can't close the window before any one of those songs are over.
Recently I was at a wedding reception's afterparty and mentioned I was from the Philadelphia area. One of the guys there said, "In West Philadelphia born and raised..." and all 20 or so twentysomethings there belted out the entire song, including the Panamanians.

I agree, if you're talking the original '60s cartoon :). To me, "Tank" from CowboyBebop has that same feel. I often wonder if some of Tank isn't a homage to the old Quest theme.
