I wish people would stop arbitrarily referring to these as theme SONGS. A "song" is something with lyrics.
If the theme has lyrics then sure, it's a theme song.
If it doesn't (which most of these don't) it's theme music or a "Main Title Theme" thank you very much!
Sorry to be pedantic. It just annoys me.
Best original Main Title themes:
The Man From UNCLE - Goldsmith
Mission: Impossible - Schifrin
The Twilight Zone - Constant
Doctor Who - Grainer
The Prisoner - Grainer
Star Trek - Courage
Star Trek: Voyager - Goldsmith
Stargate: Atlantis - Goldsmith, Jr.
The A-Team - Post/Carpenter
Knight Rider - Phillips
The Equalizer - Copeland
Miami Vice - Hammer
Airwolf - Levay
Dynasty/The Colbys - Conti
