"Family Matters" did not have the theme song from the last couple of seasons. They had the theme song from the same show back in the first few seasons.

Does "Frasier" have a theme song? I know they have that little opening, but would that count. I can't think of anything else that's been around for a while without a theme song. Unless it's something that's no longer on today. Now "Ellen" had a running joke from seasons 3-5 about not having a theme song. Every episode, where the theme song would be had Ellen come out holding a sign with the title of the show and then usually make a joke. So maybe that's it.

Frasier has a little opening and a closing theme as does Murphy Brown. My Wife And Kids doesn't have either.

To answer your questions, I think 60 Minutes is the answer. It's been on a long time and the opening is just a clock ticking.

How long has 60 Minutes been a sitcom?

It's in its 4th season. I'll keep thinking about an older sitcom though. Maybe there is one. I'll get back to you.

maybe "Seinfeld"?

That's what I am saying... 60 minutes is a Newsmagazine, news show, current events program, whatever, but it's not a sitcom!
