Woof! is indeed a classic tune - the opening of that trombone bit rocks the casbah!

The Chuckle Brothers is indeed great as well.

Does anyone remember the Amoebas from Going Live or whatever?

"Life with the Amoebas you can't see us 'cause we're small (very, very small)

Mum, dad and the baby they're the one cell family!"

(you forgot Neighbours :( )

Faves include Family Guy, Futurama, The Simpsons and South Park - the usual suspects I guess.

Well i'm undecide about the theme tune cos it either means its just beginning, YUS!...or just ended, GAH!

There is a nice moral message behind it though. Neighbours SHOULD be there for one another.

I go for 'Minder' every time. Or even 'On the Up'. Indeed I pretty much go for anything for which Dennis Waterman sung the theme tune. Hell, who wouldn't? Continuing the Dennis Waterman theme, 'The Sweeney' deserves special mention.

The Brush Strokes theme 'Because of you' is also good - late era Dexys, I believe.

In terms of kids TV I like to think that nothing can come near the tune from 'Maid Marian and her Merry Men'. A soaring, cod-gospel soul classic.

The tune at the end of each episode of The Young Ones is so good, it's used as the outro to the Spike Pile driver CD. Nothing else comes close.
