The wire
(Written by Tom Waits)
Each season had a different version

A different recording was used each season. Versions, in series order, were recorded by The Blind Boys of Alabama, Tom Waits, The Neville Brothers, DoMaJe, and Steve Earle. Season four's version, performed by the Baltimore teenagers Ivan Ashford, Markel Steele, Cameron Brown, Tariq Al-Sabir and Avery Bargasse, was arranged and recorded specifically for the show.[4]

Any show with a cold open and Cheers, which also often had a cold open. Watching a Cheers cold open featuring Coach followed by the theme makes me feel (for a little bit) like a child and everything is going to be okay.

Knight Rider. The world needs an anime reboot that leans into the vibe of that opening.

Unforgotten, Versailles. Downton Abbey, The Waltons, Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, Beverly Hillbillies, Gilligan’s Island, Brady Bunch, Patridge Family, Mary Tyler Moore, Green Acres
- The Dick Van Dyke Show?
  
  Didn’t really watch that one.

The Triumverate.
First because I could listen to Jeremy Irons read the phone book, and second because each intro is funny and unique.

Elementary's intro had great music and a nice sequence.
House MD (mostly for the non-Teardrop music version)
Swat Kats
Dexter's Laboratory
Batman: The Animated Series

Stardust crusaders (JoJo's bizarre adventure S2&3) because it's cool AND they do something really neat with it (It's related to the plot so I'm trying to avoid saying too much)
