Mine would have to be Buffy the Vampire Slayer


Angel's was better.



Did The Offspring ever get sued for ripping off the music from the start of Buffy for 'The Kids Aren't Alright?


The similarity is uncanny.


"Video is no longer available" :(

Anyways, there's also a strong similarity (the melody is practicallt the same) between Buffy's theme song and "Codo" by Austrian band DÖF (the part where the woman sings "Oooooo"). Only - that song is from 1983.

To make up for it, this is how ITV got their coverage wrong. Using a Moby or Jamiroquai theme tune? Pah.
The classic:

Pretty cool. Sounds a bit similar to Batman (it's the 12 bar blues).
