    Decided to do something a little different - setup a bunch of brackets tournament style, with 64 head-to-head candidates in total, to determine the greatest TV theme of the '60s.

    And if you need to refresh your memory, courtesy YouTube:

    The Munsters

    The Addams Family

    The other brackets:

    Bracket 1
    The Brady Bunch vs.
    My Favorite Martian

    Bracket 2
    Car 54, Where Are You? vs.
    Howdy Doody

    "The Addams Family" was a far better show but "The Munsters" has that snazzy theme without all the gimmicky bits and goofy singing relied on by the former show's theme song.

    This is the first poll where I've known the shows.

    Both great themes but The Munsters win by a large head.

    This is one of the more evil matchups. I think they're both great themes. I gave the nod to The Addams Family because it's just so odd, but The Munsters arguably has the better tune.

    Munsters does have the better tune, even if Addams Family is the richer show (and features a harpsichord).

    Addams Family more iconic theme IMO

    they're creepy and they're kooky
    mysterious and spooky
    they're altogether ooky
    :)

    When does the original Doctor Who theme come up? That’s electronic music before it existed and my no 1.

    The good Doctor is having much more trouble than I thought he would dispatching Emma Peel.

    The Greatest TV Themes Of The '60s - Round 1, Bracket 26

    It's a pity Diana Rigg never played The Doctor.
