LEAST favorite theme song?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

catlover79 · 05-15-2007, 05:13 PM

With all due respect to the many Charles In Charge fans on this board, I never could stand the theme song. The lyrics were so unbelievably corny. Same goes for the Eight Is Enough theme.

I always thought the theme song from Mister Ed was pretty corny.

Three's Company is one of my most favorite shows of all time but the theme song just did not do that show justice!!!

I'm just glad they kept the version with the lyrics; over the ones from the unsold pilots with that god-awful scatting.

I'll say the Alice theme from 1977-78. After seeing episodes on Ion recently, it is one I'm not a fan of. Same for the one used from 1982 on. The 1976 and 1978 ones I really liked though.

I don't like the Alan Thicke songs: Diff'rent Strokes and Facts of Life, and I don't care for 3's Company, Eight is Enough or Full House either.

the facts of life. its one of my all time fave shows but ive never liked the theme song

Justafan65 · 05-16-2007, 02:25 AM

Roseanne was my least favorite theme song. And maybe Fantasy Island.

KurtfromPitts · 05-16-2007, 01:18 PM

One Day At A Time, also, the second-season Munsters theme [the first-season version was far superior].

APPLEI · 05-16-2007, 01:36 PM

different strokes-the last seasons theme

happy days-the last seasons theme

the days and nights of molly dodd

I never enjoyed Rosanne's theme song. The final seasons of Happy Days wasn't the best, but I didn't hate it.

I have to disagree about Three's Company though. I always thought the song was pretty good.

blue4t · 05-23-2007, 03:19 PM

Family Ties theme song, without a doubt. My sister and I have dubbed it the worst theme song ever...sha na na na.

I will also add the second Boy Meets World theme (Cory running down the stairs into the car), 7th Heaven, Roseanne (I actually like it with lyrics in the final season), Charles in Charge (of my days and my nights), and Growing Pains. I can't think of too many that I hate. The only ones running through my head are ones I like.

catlover79 · 05-23-2007, 06:10 PM

See, I actually like the Family Ties and Growing Pains songs. The Boy Meets World theme from the first season was grating and too cutesy-poo. I never even knew the Roseanne song had lyrics.

I guess you do learn something new every day!!

88survivor · 05-23-2007, 06:13 PM

It was better as the years progressed in Boy Meets World when they added the Beatle-esque singing, though.

blue4t · 05-23-2007, 07:35 PM

The Roseanne song with lyrics was used in the final season "What doesn't kill ya makes ya stronger..." I'm not sure if the words were written when the theme song debuted or if they came out just for the final season.
Honestly, I used to not like the third BMW theme, but it's the only one with lyrics and I find myself singing it sometimes when I'm writing the words Boy Meets World
