Smallville

A theme song can make or break a show. Sure, some succeed in spite of terrible tunes (Seinfeld) or nonsensical lyrics (Laverne and Shirley), but for the masses, a catchy intro is as important as a live studio audience. Because we’ve had the Magnum, P.I. theme stuck in our heads going on 72 hours, we decided to seek out other popular TV themes, hoping that something new might stick in our brains for a while. We love ya, Magnum, but enough is enough.

Here are the television shows with the top-searched-for theme songs. Read on, and let their insidious beats enter your skull like a screwdriver, slowly driving you insane…
