Barney Miller- The opening bars of the bassline
The Six Million Dollar Man- The narrative along with music makes it unforgettable
M*A*S*H - That's a no brainer
Laverne and Shirley - "We're Gonna Make Our Dreams Come True"
Good Times- The theme song was quite depressing if you really listen to it
Dukes of Hazrard- Probably the biggest hit Waylon Jennings ever had

One from the days when I was young...
(The theme was much better than the actual programme!)
Featured Peter Firth years before he became a respected actor and Brinsley Forde years before he became a respected reggae artist! :D

I like the 'Theme From S.W.A.T.' by Rhythm Heritage, but there was an even better version. In March of 1976, a Canadian group called the T.H.P. Orchestra hit #1 in Canada after only 5 weeks in the chart with a Disco version of it

As an Aussie singing this coming into Milwaukee was priceless (1992) LAvernre and Shirley - and the Odd couple does that qualify as 70's
so that wins, but there were good ones listed above
