TV Theme Songs

I got to thinking, all the shows now dont have opening music anymore. So back to the good old tv shows. What do you guys think is some of the best TV theme music? A lot of these shows are so old, but yet so many can tell you just what it is by the first few notes of that song.
Here is my list in no particular order.

1) Dragnet
2) The Jeffersons
3) MASH
4) Sanford & Son
5) Laverne & Shirley
6) Hogans Heroes
7) The A-Team
8) ABC's Wide World of Sports
9) The Munsters
10) The Addams Family

Lets hear what ya got!

The Three Stooges.

Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk............."Oh, wise guy, eh?"

I was also partial to the theme songs from "The Twilight Zone" and "Outer Limits".

For me, the newest show with a catchy song would've been "Friends" but thats not so new anymore.
