    Out of the ones listed, it was between Knots Landing and The Colbys for me. Both were very powerful and timeless themes that really defined the shows. I picked The Colbys because just the thought of it makes me go back to the show. It's perfect.

    Dallas had a boring theme. It stayed the same for 13 and a half years. The changes each year were minor. I like the Knots Landing theme songs.

    I actually hated the way Knots kept changing it's theme song beat--from fast to slow and then fast again. I liked it fast. And I liked the scrolling pics. But I've always loved the Dallas theme song best. I thought it just got better and better each year.

    I'm totally agree with you, i love the Dallas theme also very much. Knots Landing is also good, but then the fast theme not the slow theme.

    Greetings Big Dallas fan from Holland

    Knots gets my top vote, with Dynasty, Dallas, Falcon Crest and Flamingo Road all holding second place together.

    You can mean that, Dallas with Dynasty and Falcon Crest.

    A difficult choice between Falcon Crest and The Colbys but I've voted for FC.

    Love the early versions of Falcon Crest, Dynasty, Knots, all very fast paced and jazzy.

    Have to say Dallas is my favorite, the kept the fast paced, jazzy theme all the way through. Although, Knots Landing, in some versions, is definitely the most climatic of all the soaps themes.

    Dallas first, then Dynasty, then Howards Way, then Brookside. One thing puzzles me, why do you guys call them theme songs when no one is singing, surley they are theme tunes...........just wondered

    How odd, one of the most famous, highly regarded, often hummed theme tunes isn't on the list....CROSSROADS!
    Gets my vote any day, without prejudice.
