"As long as we got each other, we go the world spinning right in our hands..."

"On your mark, get set and go now. Got a dream and we just know now. We're gonna make our dreams come true. Doin it our way!"

"Whatever happened to predictability..."

I know every one of these songs but I also watched every one of these shows as a child of the 80s (except Hill Street Blues - I definitely know the theme, but that show was for my parents 😊).

Hmm, a theme song I know but didn’t watch the show - Miami Vice, Dallas and the Andy Griffith Show

Wasn't that another one which was released first and then later used for the show?

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale
A tale of a fateful trip
That started from this tropic port
Aboard this tiny ship
The mate was a mighty sailing man
The skipper brave and sure
Five passengers set sail that day
On a three hour tour, a three hour tour

The weather started getting rough
The tiny ship was tossed
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The Minnow would be lost, the Minnow would be lost
The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle
With Gilligan
The Skipper too
A millionaire and his wife
A movie star and all the rest
Here on Gilligan's Isle

That one I think was already being played on the radio and became successful on its own right first, and then was used as the Dawson's Creek theme.

Joan Jett has a fantastic cover of this. That’s how I know it although I’ve never watched the show.

I did watch Greatest American Hero, but it is true that it was released and made the pop charts, climbing all the way to #2, so it was definitely well known outside of just the show.


The Friends theme was a single that charted as well. The producers wanted REM’s Shiny Happy People but the band turned them down.
