VS



Firefly​

I fucking love Firefly and it's theme, easily one of my favorite shows of all time. But that Greatest American Hero theme bruh I don't even know this show other than it's theme, and it almost made my list still. I'm going with it.

 

[Davey Wrestling]

Both great tunes - didn't even remember that I'd seen Great American Hero until I heard that theme again though. And that's why I'm voting for it - the tune ilicited a memory I didn't know I had.

I've seen Firefly plenty and the tune is memorable but it's not good enough to progress here.

 

[Jimmy King]

Not seen either show but both themes are good, going with Greatest American Hero as it’s more catchy and fun.

GAH was my #2 and it was a massive hit record back in the 80s and I also own the whole show on dvd as I do Firefly which is another great song but whoooooo can it be. Believe or not it’s just meeeeeee

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Gotta be The Greatest American Hero.

 

[Keith]

I wouldn't say I'm judging 100% on just which is the better song, but also how it fits as a "TV theme song" so that has to do with why I rate Fresh Prince so high, a) it's a great song and b) it tells the whole fucking story you need to know before watching the show
