What would you say is the greatest theme tune ever? In the history of television?

You have to go a long way to beat this...

Forcefield by Zack Lawrence... aka The Crystal Maze theme

The A-team and Airwolf were pretty good ones, loads of these types of programmes in the 80's with catchy theme tunes, knight rider, Street hawk, etc.

I wholeheartedly agree. He wasnt nearly good enough to start giving ultimatums over his stupid salary demands.

Shame Smits kind of gave up the ghost after NYPD Blue but then he had been around a while already. Remember him in Running Scared with Billy Crystal?

Definitely Jimmy, nearly shed a tear when his character died.

Caruso got too big for his boots, thought he was bigger than the show, headed off to Hollywood...... and bombed. "

I totally agree on all counts, and I don't rate Caruso as an actor..he seems very one-dimensional in the CSI Miami show, but coming back to the TV theme music, both were composed by Mike Post who did a bunch of others too, all pretty good including Rockford Files and Magnum PI. He obviously had a knack for it.
