Well, sometimes the Jeffersons theme song can get a tiny bit tiring at times for some reason. I dunno I guess I'm just weird...lol!

I know, that is why I am shocked. That is probably one of the most famous theme songs in sitcom history.

I will admit, the song will always be memorable in Sitcom History but it just was not a song I liked listening to-lol

"Fresh Prince" is an excellent example. Never liked rap, and it sure doesn't play any better 15 years later. I did like the show for about the first half of its run. The opening credits for the Fresh Prince had a shelf life of about 1 episode.

"Family Ties" ... hated that theme song. But I liked the show until about the time Mallory started dating Nick.


Those are the two that really stick out to me... I'm sure there are others.

I liked all those themes everyone has mentioned, I must be a tv geek. I never liked CPO Sharkey, so I don't know that theme. I dont' remember not liking any particular theme.

One Day At A Time. I had actually mixed feelings about the show, but the theme was HORRIBLE!

Yeah, personally, I liked some of the early episodes, but it seemed like the prettier Valerie Bertinelli got, the worse the show got...and she just kept getting prettier every year...

Within the last year or two, O.D.A.A.T. had a reunion show, and they interviewed the cast members...

Mackenzie Phillips said that she never could figure out the words to the theme song.. and Valerie said the same thing... Mackenzie said she thought the lyrics were "sowup" on your feet... as if "so up" was one word...

To me, that part was easy to understand... I could never figure out the line that goes "So while you’re here enjoy the view"... just before "keep on doing what you do". That was the line I never could figure out (I just looked it up on a lyrics web site...I still didn't know the words to that part of the song).
