TV has changed a lot. Now, reality TV is emerging force behind situation comedies and drama. Also, many shows opt to use a classic rock song (for example, CSI using The Who) instead of their own TV theme song. I do not doubt that there would be a sound business case there, but many times the TV theme is what we remember from a TV show... These are my top 20 TV themes of all time...
