Favorite Theme Songs

Theme songs are a huge part of almost every animated show out there. They are meant to hook us in, and stay with us afterwards. In a lot of these shows, the animation during the opening song is done better than the rest of the show.

What are some of your all time favorite TV show theme songs?


as far a lyrics and go I love the Intro to The Mask:


But when it comes to ambiance and instrumentals, i think its pretty hard to top this:

The X-Men animated series intro was great. I also liked the techno Spider-Man intro from the 90s.

I forgot to mention the 2nd intro to the Iron Man animated series was awesome. The "I Am Iron Man" theme.

I like that one better, as well. The television theme was good, but the movie version added some extra energy, especially with that crescendo before the chorus.

Aside from Batman, Ducktales, and Darkwing, I also loved the following themes:




^^ This just screamed 80s.




^^ Can't forget this.



And, of course, the themes from the Ninja Turtles shows (before Fast Forward).

I beat you with the Justice League instrumental theme song by 30 seconds! Eat krow! Seriously, its nice to see another fan of the show and the theme. Instrumentals go great with superheroes.
