Recently started watching old 90s and 80s shows just for the fun of it, because I’m bored with all of the new stuff that’s coming out, and I fell into Knight Rider.
My review of the show so far aside, it’s got straight up the most banger theme music I have heard in a TV show in a very long time.
It got me wondering what other TV shows have really great theme songs?
I could not make it through this song.
I love TOS and the next generation, but that theme song would stop me in my tracks every single time. I kind of understand why you’re saying people would leave hate for it.
Like going from the soaring orchestral, grand, majestic themes from the next generation, and even the 60s space-optimistic Mahler-esque theme songs from T.O.S. to that sad sap Bon Jovi knockoff acoustic ballad is such a letdown.
I generally agree about the song, jokes aside. Though I have to admit: it grew on me over time.
I actually really liked that it wasn’t instrumental. It was like Star fleet, rough and new and not established and elegant.
