    Hahah. Classic as always. I was honestly expecting Darkwing Duck or some show along those lines to be #1. So when it turned out to be Ducktales, I laughed and whole heartedly agreed. Nice job once again.

  • MW900cows

    All you are thinking about is ******* DUCK TALES!!!!

    By the way, I hate the reading rainbow theme to

  • Aleclom

    God damn, now I'm gonna have Duck Tails in my head for days. THANKS.

    I would'a had Speed Racer up there too, but I still agree that every song on that list is too damn catchy. Curses.

    .....Duck Tails, woohoo.

  • Jillas

    You bastard! I had eradicated that song from my mind for all eternity!

    Now I shall never have peace!

  • branboozle

    HAHA great list man!

  • Pickles the Clown

    you knocked off half of my list with the Richard Stone team ha but Idk maybe Duck Tales was before my time, but i am already annoyed by Duck Tales theme

  • myselfornot

    Duck tale A Woohoo!

  • SMcCall64

    I knew the Tiny Toons theme song was going to make it, but I had no idea about how much work Richard Stone and his team did with Spielberg's cartoons.

  • ElloGovna

    Dude how can you not have the Darkwing Duck theme.

  • strike91

    Ducktales! lol . :D

    Awesome list and I agree with most of it. Carmen Sandiego was the shiznit

  • Jakobi

    before i say what im going to say, let me just point out that this video kicked ass!!! I had totally forgotten about the duck tales theme song. ok here is my only complaint:

    WHY THE HELL DIDNT YOU PLAY FREAKAZOID"S THEME?!?!?!? yes you showed him but you didnt play his song. but enough of that. loved the vid

  • EmildmedDild

    Power Rangers!!!

  • Monkt

  • Deadpool47

    No Real Ghostbusters? Come on, that was by far just as catchy as TMNT and Transformers. who the hell didn't know that theme?

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=mOAjznFFZpU

  • THE MASTER

    What was up with Transformers not being number one? I mean at least make ninja turtles number one and the Transformers number two! Ah well c'est la vie! :D

  • King Jirachi

    Dah, not duck tales again!

    The list is good, but i think there should be the pokemon theme song, yes, it is extreamly annoying, i even hate it, but its worse then duck tales to me!

    ...You know its my destiny, POKEMON!

    God i hate that song!

  • atomic_afro

    Can't forget this classic earworm:

  • Clammie_Kenisis

    You know, I kept waiting for the Fresh Prince of Belair... How classic is that song? Personally, I think it's awesome!
    Great list though. Duck Tales is incredibly catchy... ergh.

  • Spectere

    Ah, my childhood.

    I still can't get those blasted tunes out of my head. Now, thanks to you, Nostalgia Critic (IF THAT'S YOUR REAL NAME), my chances of forgetting them are even slimmer. ;_;

  • storage and disposal

    the same band that did the theme song for Ducktales also did Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers. That one will never leave your head either.

  • Danny

    Ah, simply a fantastic job again, NC :). Well, that I was hoping that you would also be able to include "The Raccoons" theme, but oh well. So, actually, my personal favs on your list are #10, #9, #8, and no doubt #1 ;). Actually, according to the map shown on "Follow That Bird", that "Sesame Street" is actually in like New York or somewhere around there :.

    Yeah, that I agree that "Reading Rainbow"'s theme is simply annoying, but that I still like it for both its general sort of "mystical/new age/out-of-this-world/whatever" sound to it and its female singer. Believe it or not, that I think that I never saw the cartoon, but that yeah, the game show of Carmen Sandiego kicked butt 8). Oh, yes, that the "DuckTales" theme is catchy, but that it simply doesn't go away. Lastly, that I simply can't wait to hear what you're going to say about the "Little Giants" movie, huh ;)?

  • Saziel

    ;D awesome vid, but what about swat kats? :P

  • 0v3rk1ll

    so your masterbating and then DUCK TALES WHOOHOO

  • Prodigs

    Aww damn, where the hell was Hong Kong Phooey?!
    Or the original Spider-man series, it was the biggest piece of shit on TV, only redeeming because of it's theme song, which is what we think of now when we think 'Spiderman'.

    Interestingly, the Power Rangers theme song was actually commissioned as single release by none other than Satan himself, Simon Cowell. It actually reahced #1 in the charts if you can believe that.

  • Thrawn05

    For me, my number 1 theme song will always be Mister Roger's "It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood" . I sing that at least once a day.

    .........WHOOHOO!

  • an_square_one

    I loved Ducktales, I still remember the episode where they go back in time and meet Bubba the Caveduck. Woohoo!

    Remember the show Marsupalami? < (spelling?)
    He was some spotted monkey-cat with a long tail. I just remember the theme which was just 'Mar-sup-a-lami-' Woohoo!

    Thanks for the memories

  • Faust

    I second Saziel.
    "awesome vid, but what about Swat Cats?"

    I know this is your top 10.
    It's just that....the Swat Cats Theme song(s) where actually the first thing that popped in my mind.
    :P

    Keep up the good work, you show that movies on the internet are more interesting then whats on TV :D

  • gshowguy

    IMO, the Muppet Babies theme song should've been included.

    "Muppet Babies, we make our dreams come true, Muppet Babies, we'll do the same for you..."

  • batsy2

    i find the thomas and friends theme catchy and same with ducktales and i know its not on tere its my opinion

  • Ninko

    I have to admit, for most of them I gotta say that you hit the nail square on the head. Especially the Spielburg cartoons. But Lambchop's "Song That Never Ends" should have been on there! In my opinion anyways. >.>
    *Now has the Inspector Gadget theme stuck in my head* Curses! XD
