Go here to vote for your favorite. When last checked, the results had The Lone Ranger, Gilligan’s Island, and Hawaii Five-O leading the pack.

Speaking of TV openers, about a year ago I launched a Rap Sheet “channel” on YouTube, devoted primarily to the introductions of old boob-tube programs I remember fondly. With almost 50 such videos now posted, I am rather amused to see which ones have drawn the greatest attention. Here are the top five most-watched:• Crazy Like a Fox (11,192 views)
• Wiseguy (4,892 views)
• Bourbon Street Beat (3,197 views)
• Get Christie Love! (3,034 views)
• Hooperman (2,985)
Who knew there were so Crazy Like a Fox fans still around?

I SPY, The Avengers, Mission: IMPOSSIBLE, THE OUTER LIMITS, and Hawaii Five-O are my long time favorites out of their set of TV titles. Though, few opening number top Henry Mancini's work with the Peter Gunn theme.
I loved Crazy Like a Fox as a kid, but until I added another view to your YT vid, I couldn't have told you a thing about the opening. Some show openings I remember after 25 years, some I don't.
