The 10 best TV theme songs from the last ten years:
10. "Searching my Soul," Vonda Shepherd, Ally McBeal
9. "Spongebob Squarepants Theme," Painty the Pirate Painting, Spongebob Squarepants
8. "Goin' Down to South Park," Les Claypool, South Park
7. "Radio Free Roscoe Theme," Skye Sweetnam, Radio Free Roscoe
6. "Teen Titans, Go!" Puffy Ami Yumi, Teen Titans.
5. "Where You Lead," Carole King, Gilmore Girls
4. "Ballad of Serenity," Sonny Rhodes, Firefly
3. "I Wonder Why the Wonder Falls," Andy Partridge, Wonderfalls
2. "Boss Of Me," They Might be Giants, Malcolm in the Middle
1. "Superman," Lazlo Bane, Scrubs
Note: I'm not counting Veronica Mars, The Sopranos, or any of the three CSI shows -- all of which would be top five contenders -- as they all used pre-released songs that had a following before the shows came out. Also, yes, I was very tempted to toss the Freakazoid! theme in here, but it's technically been just over ten years since the series ended. I also decided to stick to songs -- no instrumentals, not even the Buffy theme -- just to make this one easier to narrow down. I'm sure I omitted at least one great theme song, as we all have our favorites (and mine certainly shift often enough). I'm also sure that I omitted the theme song from Friends. I'm sure that there's no overlap between those last two sentences.

(And yes, I'm aware that this violates my rules above, as FotH appeared in Patch Adams. But, A) the song just sucks that much, and B) it was Patch fucking Adams, which only makes it worse.
