"Best Sitcom Theme Songs In History" List Shockingly Bereft 

Michael Musto did a list of the best sitcom theme songs in history, and apparently Michael Musto has never watched TV because he missed the following entries:

  • “Cheers”
  • “Diff’rent Strokes”
  • “It’s Garry Shandling’s Show”
  • “Growing Pains”
  • “Family Ties”
  • “The Facts of Life”
  • “Friends”
  • “The Beverly Hillbillies”
  • “Mr. Ed”
  • “The Flintstones”
  • “The Jetsons”
  • “Louie”
  • “Three’s Company”

AND “Welcome Back Kotter,” which is the best of the bunch.  Shame on you, Musto.  SHAME ON YOU.
