Bad Show, Good Opening Song

The reverse of the other thread.

Queer Duck's theme always has me laughing, even if the rest of the show is just plain stupid. Bobobo has a similar issue, but that's less due to the theme itself and more due to the fact the show gets annoying after 2-3 minutes at a time.
 
When I was little, I didn't like the Raccoons too much because I was too young to really understand the storylines, but I really loved the opening theme. I always watched it, and the first few minutes of the show, but grew disappointed because it wasn't as interesting as the opening. Eventually I started liking the show though... And got sick of the opening (except for the music).
 
Mega Man. The opening theme was pure adrenaline. Sadly, that was the only thing good about the show as the show itself was pure cheese and I think 90% of the show's budget went into making the opening. :shrug:
 
The 1960s Spiderman show had a legendary opening theme song ("Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can...") but the show, from what I've seen, is pretty awful.
 
Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this, but looking back at it, the Donkey Kong Show intro was actually quite rocking. Even if it was one of those clip itnros with scenes from the actual show, it was well done and the music was nicley made. The show itself, from animation and writing and even characterization wasn't really good at all (and I only watched a few episodes since it had Donkey Kong in it) but the theme song was solid.
 
Really? I thought was an okay cartoon, in a "let's lower our expectations it's a spin-off of a 40 year-old Disney movie" kind of way.

As unpopular as it might be, I say Thundercats. Could never get into the show, but the theme song was pretty cool.
 
ChalkZone- The show itself was "Eh" to me, but the theme song was solid.

Droids (One half of the Ewoks/Droids Adventure Hour)- Now don't get me wrong, Droids was not really a bad show, I just wasn't really into it at the time. However, I watched the show every week just to hear the opening theme song.
 
Both openings for SWAT Cats are pretty rockin'--pretty much the best and most memorable thing about what is otherwise a mediocre mid-nineties cartoon.
 
Oh man, I had almost forgotten about that terrible show..hmm, bad shows with good openings, thats a tough one, alot of times bad shows have bad themes. I always like the Jetsons theme, but the show for me was hit and miss.
 
I agree. The theme song was pretty cool. I used to watch the show a lot, and a few months ago my sister and I were laughing for about an hour after remembering all the stupid stuff on that show.
 
Oh I got one now. Scooby Doo. The theme song for the original was fun and catchy, the show, like all things Scooby related I couldn't stand.
