I have a soft spot for music from tv show intros from the 70s and early 80s. The compositions and memorable melodies were something else.
I think maybe it was a legacy from the 70s movie soundtracks, where Ennio Morricone really showed how important soundtracks were to movies, but then TV shows had to do it in 30 seconds. I love the craftsmanship of it.
