I watched every episode of the GG when I was at my Grandma's growing up, I always thought Rue was hot, probably why I still love older women to this day

I forgot the Dukes, my mom gave me four VCR tapes I could use to record the DOH on our $800 VCR when I was a kid. ESP play if I remember right, I could get four or five episodes on one VCR tape. She gave them to me awhile back and I tossed them, the commercials that were recorded would have been entertaining I bet as well.

I don't think it's the best, but I am hearing the guitar in my head as I type this.

Loved? Dana Delany is STILL hot...

Topically:
Miami Vice for me, followed closely by

Tour of Duty
A-Team
Hawaii Five-0
And Charles in Charge....

Come on... admit it, who DIDN'T want Charles In Charge of Them?

While some of your choices are noteworthy only one is the best, Beverly Hillbillies. Jed, move away from there.

Justified intro as they have it, couldn't find a video of the intro scene, just the music...

This is a fan made intro with a much better song, especially if your familiar with the series.

"Cover Up". Show only lasted a season, the orginal star accidently shot himself.

Used to come on after Airwolf. I was only 4 but both of the theme songs made an impression. Also "The Greatest American Hero" which has ben mentioned was memorable too.

I thought the opening jingle for Alphas is a rockin' tune. Lots of people apparently do, and have requested the songwriter make it into a complete song. Haven't check to see if he has yet.
