Worst Music?
mparrish11:
TTD ‘90, TJW ‘90, and FF ‘99 (from start through when they went back to the original theme during the O’Hurley days.)

I hated the FF 94 theme in 94, but listening back to it now, it has some good cues. Also, the $OTC reel that came from TVPMM was missing some of the better cues that I still wish were out there.
First place to TJW 90. Out of themes not mentioned yet, I always found the Whammy! theme to be such a huge letdown from the original. TJW, the first rendition without all of the brass also seems like it's just missing several parts.

On that version, they played a fanfare to close out a dealing segment. After the last horn, there is this weird warbling sound. It sounds exactly like the sound of my washing machine in the '80s when it cycled down from a spin cycle. And I still hear it in that music today. Every. Damn. Time.
PYLdude:
I'm not the biggest fan of the Password Plus theme. It sounds like someone chopped about thirty seconds of "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid and paired it with someone playing a synth with his toes.
The Ol' Guy:
Fun thread. Osmond Pyramid and 1990 Tic Tac Dough certainly on the list. I'm a fan of Hidey's Strike It Rich. One theme that fits in the Mancini Dough underwhelm category is Merv Griffin's Crosswords. The show, in its own bad way, tried to be as tension filled as Jeopardy with rapid play and a hyper host, then you bring on this theme on quaaludes that pulls everything right down. Pleasant melody, bad fit.
