Scrubs Theme Song

Now we can make a detailed and finished post for Scrubs, now that it’s over. The theme song that we have all come to love, as most probably already know, is officially entitled “Superman.” It is by Lazlo Bane, a band based in Santa Monica, California. Credited for writing the tune are the members of [...]

The Event Theme Song

I can’t believe the first season of this show is still not yet finished. Anyway, no word yet on a second season. This show is not really known for its theme song and opening, but let us archive it anyway. It has one of those ten-second titles—which should really, really be phased out—that lacks any [...]

Defenders of the Earth Theme Song

The plot of Defenders of the Earth, produced in 1986, is set in the year 2015. So really, this is our faith in four years time. For this theme, our information is limited to the composers and the lyrics. Tips say that music is credited in the closing of the show, so, let’s check if [...]

The Ricky Gervais Show Theme Song

This is for the HBO and Channel 4 animated series, of course, that premiered in 2010, and not the audio series. The only available information for the opening and closing theme song (same) of The Ricky Gervais Show is its composer. The song was composed by a certain Glyn Hughes, who also happens to be [...]

The Life & Times of Tim Theme Song

This next theme is yet another HBO series, but an animated one at that. The Life & Times of Tim seems to be making a lot of waves in its short life span. Late last year HBO almost canceled the series only to revert its original decision, so now everyone is currently awaiting the premiere [...]

Hung Theme Song

Hung is a fairly-new comedy series on HBO which premiered in 2009 and is now on its way to a third season. It stars actor Thomas Jane, known best as the original The Punisher, but its biggest star (cast) may still well be Anne Heche. As with most HBO originals, this series has a proper [...]

How to Make It in America Theme Song

2010-present Another HBO original you should check out, especially if you like Shannyn Sossamon. Alright, proper titles, and proper, proper theme song on this one. The opening theme for How to Make It in America is a song entitled “I Need a Dollar” (quite obvious, isn’t it?). It is by American soul and hip hop [...]

Game of Thrones Theme Song

2011 This show will definitely rule. So, what do you think? Premiere was shown just last Sunday so I guess it’s too early to judge. But expectations are definitely high for this one. Good thing about HBO though is they know just how to promote their originals “just right.” Like the video below for example—uploaded [...]

Don’t Forget the Lyrics! Theme Song

2007–present This is the one played by the band at the very beginning—when Wayne Brady is introduced by the announcer. The tune is actually very short (in the show) as it is just a riff played over and over—but a memorable one at that. It is because it is a popular song by the band [...]

The Chicago Code Theme Song

2011 Yes, Jennifer Beals, yes. Alright, another new show with a proper opening theme. Things are looking good. The theme song for The Chicago Code—that crime series starring Flashdance goddess Jennifer Beals—is a piece by Canadian composer Robert Duncan. So far we have credited Mr. Duncan for the themes of The Unit, Terriers, and Castle, [...]
