The Prisoner (my favorite favorite favorite) One of my faves, too. I also love the themes to: The Twilight Zone Night Gallery Alfred Hitchcock Presents The Avengers The Fugitive I Spy (don't like the show so much though) Route 66 (again, not a big fan of the show) Bonanza The White Shaodw The Incredible Hulk ("Lonely Man" piano theme was amazing) Knowing Me, Knowing You With Alan Partridge Blackadder The Royle Family Benny Hill etc. etc.

There are only two I can think of....
Twin Peaks Dr. Who (60's and 70's theme)
Both are great and spooky

Another one I just thought of:
The old "In Search Of" (hosted by Leonard Nimoy) theme. Very creepy!

There was a disco LP which featured the music of "In Search Of" from 1977 which, in turn, became an early hip-hop favorite for it's drums on "Phenomena Theme". The theme from "The Daily Show" sounds like a modified version of "The Kids In The Hall" intro (They Might Be Giants?).

Kung Fu very sweeping and dramatic.
Sledge Hammer Even when I'd have a marathon, I never tire of hearing it.
Wonder Falls Ditto. Andy Partridge from XTC fame. It's just a cool song all on its own
Alfred Hitchcock Presents Picture perfect, fits Hitchs sly sense of humor as it doesn't go the traditional dark, ominous theme one would think you'd get from a show like this.
Kolchak: The Night Stalker (Original) Always loved the scoring in this series and the theme is urgent. You know something dangerous is on the horizon.
Outer Limits (original) Ditto, there not much here, but with the control voice and the rest of the scoring, it just sets off that other worldy, gothic feel right from the start.
Also, Dragnet, Perry Mason and of course, BATMAN, da, da, da, da, da BATMAN!

The Unsolved Mysteries theme was always a favorite. I love Les Claypool's themes for South Park and Robot Chicken too. "Corona" from Jackass is just fun.
