Ah, fall—the season of cozy sweaters, pumpkin spice everything, and the glorious return of our favorite TV shows! Sure, streaming has turned our screens into a buffet of endless options, but let’s be real: nothing beats the nostalgia of those catchy theme songs that made us feel like we were part of the family… or at least part of a sitcom where the dog always gets the last laugh.

Tune in and find out if your favorites made the cut and get ready for some fun commentary that’ll have you singing along—whether you want to or not!
