    More Old School, Please

    The Bob Newhart Show (the original) -- great music and great shots of Chicago

    Maude -- kind of annoying, but so was the show--a perfect match

    Good Times -- great song

    And one from the 80's:

    Married With Children -- terrible show, but opening with Sinatra was pretty funny

    You are right on in one respect--the opening credits for Hawaii Five-O were the best ever. I didn't even really like the show, but I watched it many times after being sucked in by that incredible song.
