The theme is AWESOME too in all it’s screaming glory – too bad the annoying kids talk all over it.Įdd said: While not as cool as the Japanese theme, the American version of the classic anime is the definition of an earworm. It’s like Transformers, but with giant lizards instead of boxy machines. Two warring factions of aliens bring their battles to Earth, where they meet an Annoying Multicultural Group of Smiling Teens (TM) who teach them about humans and kindness and stuff, while trying not to get trampled during epic fights. The theme is perfect too, breaking the fourth wall (“the scripts were rejected/expect the unexpected”) and never taking itself too seriously.Įdd said: Dinosaucers should have been HUGE. It’s just as manic and frantic as the show itself.Įdd said: Take the classic Looney Tunes gang, infuse some ’90s attitude and you get Tiny Toons, a bunch of smart-aleck animals running amok in their school. Anyway, this superhero family is dying for a 21st century remake.Įdd said: This, of course, is the more memorable “we’re ready to party” theme from later in the show’s run, instead of the dull original song. Bionic Six has a LOT of explaining to do. This multicultural brood was either the result of a bunch of adoptions or Mrs. Ah, it was a simpler time.Įdd said: The Bionic Six were a weird amalgamation of the Brady Bunch and The Fantastic Four. The theme song is so perfectly ’80s, set to 13-year-olds driving cars with pools in the backseat and lots and LOTS of guitars and surfboards. She-Ra kicked butt with the best of them.Įdd said: Bet you forgot about this short-lived series. Most toons targeted to girls were all about fairies and horses and three-foot-tall cake bakers. You can thank me later.Įdd said: The theme to the He-Man spinoff wasn’t quite as iconic as its big brother but it’s pretty magical in its own right. I guarantee that you’ll waste your entire day listening to all these theme songs. Ranking was determined by song quality, catchiness, and that good ol’ nostalgia factor – those songs that still make you smile nearly 30 years later. So don’t give me grief about excluding The Flinstones or Josie and the Pussycats. This, of course, excludes those old Hannah Barbera shows that originally ran in the1960s but were syndicated in the ’80s. Let’s look at 30 of the best cartoon theme songs that originally ran from 1980-1999. Not only were we treated to classic cartoons on a nearly daily basis, those shows produced theme songs that were absolutely iconic. If you’re an ’80s or ’90s baby, congratulations, your childhood was awesome. So today, let’s try something a little different. Here at Soul In Stereo, you know we aren’t afraid to turn the clock back.
