One of my definite faves that hasn't been listed is Weeds. Each episode has a different artist do the theme so it's kind of hard to only post one link, but here's the original from season 1 ep1.
So many...
Spooks (dun dun... DU NA nana... du nana du nana...)
South Park (I like girls with... you know the rest)
Dad's Army (Who do you think you are kidding Mr. Hitler...)
Red Dwarf (It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere!)
Monty Python's Flying Circus (If you don't know this one, then you have my sympathy)
And many many more
I actually did a panel on Anime openings not too long ago, so I'll do them first:
Okay, this one is a joke. Put your grasses on and watch the rest.
And yes, that is Freddie Mercury.
This is only about half of what was in my panel; I can't remember the other 15 or so that I put in, but the winner is definitely either Bebop or Baccano! The styles are so close, and both are so masterfully done that it's hard to decide.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to find a youtube video of this opening that is not a filming f a tv.
Showing my age, I'm afraid... For opening songs not much beats M*A*S*H's accoustic "Suicide is Painless", or Cheers' "Where Everybody Knows Your Name", for me. Also really like the old Night Court opening... but mostly because I just loved that show.
