Here are my five favourite TV theme songs.
5. Buffy the Vampire Slayer – yeah, yeah, yeah it sounds a bit like The Offspring who cares. This theme IS my teenage years. And to be honest, my adult years. And this is an intro you never skip.
4. The Sweeney – a great man introduced me to this TV programme (long before out-of-breath Ray Winstone embarrassed himself) – my grandad. A police show concentrating on the tough-nut Flying Squad – it had a really fun intro.
3. Doctor Who – no explanation necessary. Though I will tell you this was my ringtone for quite a few years!
2. True Blood – the only thing sexier than Eric Northman is the show’s theme song Bad Things – sung by Jace Everett. I listen to this when I’m cleaning my bathroom (morale).
1. Fireball XL5 – this was a children’s science fiction series, made in the 1960s. And I just love its slushy, cute little theme song!

Mmmmmmm! I loved Spike, I kind of preferred him in the earlier seasons when he was a baddie with a good sense of humour but there were some pretty emotional episodes with him in the later seasons (“I may be a monster…but you treat me like a man” – that always had me in tears!!!)
I loved Angel but he didn’t have as much sex appeal for me. I did like him though!
No-one ever really mentions Riley lol. I did like the guy though, I felt sorry for him in the end.

I don’t know why but Riley always reminded me of Action Man.

I can completely understand that! He was a bit of a stiff wasn’t he and Action Man is a perfect name for him. I did like Riley though, I always felt he was a decent guy who was mugged off a bit. Yeah he was boring but he was decent!

Once my friend skipped over the Buffy opening, when we were watching this. I don’t think I have seen him since.
I would also like to add ‘Game of Thrones’ to this list. The chills are getting are unbelievable. Castle also has a special place in my heart. It is a show about murder, yet opens with this pleasant whistling jingle. Strange, but it sticks in the mind.

Skipping over the Buffy opening is major sacrilege.

I like the sound of that! It sounds out of place in a show about murder, but that could make it even creepier.
I have yet to watch Game of Thrones!! I know I’m slow but I will get round to it. I have heard the theme is marvellous though. Mind you, isn’t everything about it marvellous?!
Quite understandable about your “friend” who skipped the Buffy opener – I assume he/she is chained up somewhere now, isolated in disgrace?
