Some good tv related threads just now made me think about theme tunes.
Obviously loads of great ones but this, for me, stands head and shoulders above all others: the outro to the Sweeney. Beautifully melancholic - reflects the way things never quite worked out at the end of each episode.
Edit: fixed that video link so you all can enjoy the real thing!

Anyone got a link to The Rockford Files Theme?
I do agree with the OP the Sweeney outro theme and its graphics are just wonderful.

Continuing the theme of children's TV series this is another (melancholic!) one...

And my personal favourite. All classics .....all of Gerry Anderson's shows were great , with perhaps the possible exception of the Secret Service , which starred Stanley Unwin alongside his puppet character . |

There are plenty but Hill Street Blues is an absolute classic.
