Tonight I saw Zack Morris (mark Paul Gosselar) on the Late Show with Jimmy Fallon. Along with intense bouts of nostalgia, hearing the roots rock out their own version of the Saved by the Bell theme song, an idea struck me.
By the beginning of next week I'd like to have a bracket of a set of 16 TV show theme songs, and day by day pit them against each other until a champion is crowned. So for those of you who still read this thing, including the ones who read and don't comment, now is your time to come out of the woodwork and nominate which songs you'd like to see in the final bracket of 16.
This could be fun.
Friends, Diffrent Strokes, and Saved by the Bell are three that I'm really feeling as of late. Who do you nominate?
I didn't mean for that to rhyme.

Cheers, MASH, and Bonanza are among my favorites.
I'm also a fan of Simpsons and Family Guy. As well as the Lone Ranger, but I had a thing for old cowboy shows as a kid, so Bonanza and the Lone Ranger might be too much.
The old Batman theme song from the 60's is preetttyyy classic.
I vote you seed them according to how long they were on the air.
I'm in for the A Team and Fresh Prince...
