I see a couple missing from your list off the top of my head from the 80s:

  • Hardcastle and McCormick
  • Simon and Simon

does anyone else ever get the Simon & Simon theme song stuck in their head for no discernible reason? maybe it's because that show came on just after bedtime, so I had to lay there listening to it, and all the shows my parents would watch as I fell asleep.

which brings me to the best theme song ever: Taxi

I hope that never leaves my head, it's amazing and is like a massive sleeping pill when I hear it

Yep I can still hear Simon and Simon in my head
