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?

You should check out Scavenger's Reign! The intro music only becomes more haunting and fitting as you learn more about the story. I never skipped it and i typically don't like title sequences

Edit: Intro link

Okay, that music was cool as fuck. Like, there's so many places where that is appropriate music.

If it were played at the denouement of any dramatic thriller where like the hero is outside of the room where the person they were trying to save is being actively killed by the bad guy before they rush in to kill the bad guy in revenge, it would fit flawlessly.

There's something very much about death in that song. Death and helplessness.

Oh yeah, 100%! It also lands a little differently through the show, sometimes despairing, sometimes regretful, and even with a flicker of hope. Absolutely recommend if you'd like a sci-fi survival story that feels like a dark graphic novel. The writing is top notch
