	It's amazing that this song placed last in our poll, but then it was up against some pretty tough competition. But even though it only received a little more than 17% of the votes, this song still remains a television classic. It was all instrumental, but let's face it--it didn't need lyrics! The pure 70s funk sound with the blazing harmonica made this a song we surely will never forget. You may be interested to know that the song's actual title is "The Streetbeater" and was composed by famous musician Quincy Jones. Take a look at the original opening here.

The "Married with Children" theme song is the only one in our poll that was actually a famous song long before the show first aired. Frank Sinatra first performed "Love and Marriage" in the 1950s, and it remains a popular tune at wedding receptions today. The fact that this song was chosen as the "Married with Children" theme seems almost ironic-- the lyrics tell all about the joys of being married, while the show focuses on a rather dysfunctional family. It's definitely a hilarious combination that certainly worked! Check out the opening credits.

	Start listening to the Jeffersons theme song, and there's no doubt you'll be feeling the urge to clap your hands and get up to dance! Premiering in 1975, "The Jeffersons" was a spin-off of the popular show "All in the Family". It told the story of George and Louise 'Wheezie' Jefferson, whose dry-cleaning business became so successful that they "moved on up to a deluxe apartment" in New York. The jubilant, soulful theme song celebrated this fact--George and Wheezie "finally got a piece of the pie!" Listen to the theme song.

Many of us have a place we like to go to unwind, forget about the stresses of the day, and just hang out with friends. That's what makes our first-place theme song so easy to relate to (and could contribute to the reason it won by a landslide!) When "Cheers" first debuted in 1982, it almost didn't make it to the second season due to poor ratings. But as viewers watched, they began to relate to Sam, Norm, Cliff, Carla, and company, resulting in a successful 10+ year run! The theme song, titled "Where Everybody Knows Your Name", is more than appropriate for the show's plot: "You wanna be where you can see, our troubles are all the same, You wanna be where everybody knows Your name. " Watch the intro here.
