    Speaking of sports themes, I'll go for HNIC of course, but what about the theme to "ABC's Wide World of Sports"?

    We're gonna have a TV party tonight (All right)
    We're gonna have a TV party all right (Tonight)

    (We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)

    Everybody's gonna hang out here tonight (All right)
    We'll pass out on the couch all right (Tonight)

    (We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
    (Don't talk about anything else, we don't wanna know)
    (We're dedicated to our favorite shows)
    That's Incredible, Hill Street Blues, Dallas, Fridays

    We sit glued to the TV set all night (And every night)
    Why go into the outside world at all (Its such a fright)

    (We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)

    TV really shows what its like out there (Its a scare)
    You can go out if you want (We wouldn't dare)

    (We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
    (Don't talk about anything else, we don't wanna know)
    (We're dedicated to our favorite shows)
    Saturday Night Live, Monday night football, Jeffersons, Vegas

    I wouldn't be without my TV for a day (Or even a minute)
    Don't even bother to use my brain any more (There's nothing left in it)

    (We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)

    Hey wait a minute, my TV doesn't work (It's broken)
    What are we gonna do tonight, this isn't fair (We're hurting)

    (We've got nothing better to do, than watch TV and have a couple of brews)
    (What're we gonna talk about, I don't know)
    (We're gonna miss our favorite shows)
    No That's Incredible, no Monday night football, no Jeffersons, no Fridays
    (No TV party tonight)

    I can't believe the lack of love for:

    Dallas
    The Greatest American Hero
    Beverly Hills 90210
    Fat Albert (hey, hey, hey!)

    And maybe the greatest ever:
    Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip
    That started from this tropic port, aboard this tiny ship.
    The mate was a mighty sailin' man, the Skipper brave and sure.
    Five passengers set sail that day for a three hour tour. A three hour tour.

    The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed.
    If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the Minnow would be lost. The Minnow would be lost.
    The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle,
    with Gilligan, the Skipper too, the Millionaire
    and his wife, the movie star, the Professor
    and Mary Ann, here on Gilligan's Isle.

    Now this is the tale of the castways, they're here for a long, long time,
    they'll have to make the best of things, it's an uphill climb.
    The first mate and the Skipper too, will do their very best,
    to make the others comfortable, in the tropic island nest.
    No phone, no lights no motor cars, not a single luxury,
    like Robinson Crusoe, as primative as can be.
    So join us here each week my freinds, you're sure to get a smile,
    rom seven stranded castways, here on "Gilligan's Isle."

    It's a little esoteric, but the theme to Firefly was one of my favorites.

    Also worthy of mention: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Molto Mario, Train Man, Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, Sealab 2021
