"Green Acres"
https://youtu.be/umS3XM3xAPk

and listen to the lyrics and maybe you'll understand why feminism is needed.

There are probably others, but this one sticks out in my mind because EVERYONE about 50 or older knows the complete lyrics to this song and can sing it.

"I Dream of Jeannie" (Seasons 2-5)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dADf6q1QDs

I'll add more as I think of them, I'll just some by TV show now not in any order:
1. Gilligan's Island
2. Beverly Hillbillies
3. Family Affair
4. The Outer Limits (1995)
5. The Jeffersons
6 Star Trek: The Next Generation

  "NYPD", a 30-minute ABC show in the late 1960s starring Jack Warden and Frank Converse.

  Bro Green Acres is too old even for you. That whole cost has been dead for over 10 years now.

  @blondfrog It's not too old for me. I watched it all the time as a kid.

  Just to be consistent, here are the other CBS rural shows:
  
  The Beverly Hillbillies, another theme song everyone of a certain age knows the lyrics to and can sing...
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvE9zJgm8OY
  
  Petticoat Junction
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRhi8Tk9nNE
  
  "The Andy Griffith Show"
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpioDa-xHbw
  
  I won't bother with the other shows in the "Mayberry Universe" - "Gomer Pyle, USMC" and "Mayberry R. F. D."
  
  Hee-Haw - this is NOT the theme to Hee-Haw but this is an example of "PFFT! You Was Gone", the famous song that was sung in EVERY episode.

  First one, "CSI".
  
  "Won't Get Fooled Again" was used in the second one "CSI: Miami".
  
  I don't know what was used in any other CSIs if there were any.

  @abc3643 yes they did. The CSI franchise by far had the best music of anyone. You just can’t go wrong with The Who 🤩

I think it's Fresh Prince which is ironic since Will Smith's rap is almost universally hated.

  @abc3643. I had never seen that skit about the Church of Jack Lord. OMG, that was so funny.
  
  What I know about the theme song is, it was recorded by The Wrecking Crew with the great Hal Blain on drums.
  
  And Rawhide by Frankie Lane is such a great song. So manly. There are actually more lyrics, but the arrangement of the song for the TV show was the best, aside from, possibly, the Blues Brothers arrangement.

  Dan Akroyd - from preacher in The Church of the Jack Lord (a skit in the 1979 movie "Mr. Mike's Mondo Video") to Elwood Blues in the 1980 movie "The Blues Brothers" singing "Rawhide"...
