The Gary Shandling Show

Malcolm in the Middle

I also liked the theme to Chico and the Man, but for some reason, I really couldn't get into the show. Granted, I haven't seen the show in a few years.

It wasn't the greatest theme, but it was catchy. As for the show, it just didn't click with me.

Have no idea how that show was #4 in the ratings after season 1, maybe it was because it had sanford and son as a lead in

That's entirely plausible, although I am not sure if Freddie Prinze was a big time comedian before the show.

no, he wasn't. When he appeared on THE TONIGHT SHOW, James Komack (the producer) spotted him for the show. He adutioned, got the role and the rest is history.

Family Ties
M*A*S*H (sometimes in healthy doses)
American Dad (Nice recent theme song in a while, show is too much of a one-joke show)
Full House (sometimes I try to like the theme, but I really disdain the show)
Designing Women
Bob Newhart Show (The 1975-78 version)
Taxi (sometimes I like both the theme and the show at the same time)
Three's Company (The show wasn't as fun after Season 6, but still tune into the theme song)
21 Jump Street (I couldn't really get into the show once Johnny Depp left)
