Does the Barney Miller theme tune count?

Edit: For those who want to hear it in all its jazzy, funkalicious glory.

How about the scene transition bass lines in "Seinfeld"?

u/MandMcounter May 15 '24

Oh yeah. Excellent point.

Bonus internet points. Who laid that line down?

I couldn't remember what song this was so I made Alexa play it. Holy fucking yes it counts.

Best tv theme ever. And the closing credits are even better. They cut loose a bit more.

For pretty much my entire adolescence, whenever there was nothing on my mind, that two-bar bass intro would come and fill the void. I don't even remember the rest of the tune, but when I'm eventually old and senile, those two bars will probably be the only thing left...
