What utterly subtrival listcruft
- Speedy delete as usless trivia since this could list just about every TV show ever made. Not to mention potentially unmaintainable. --SuperDude 04:31, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Did you look at the article, SuperDude? It's a list of lists. Badly named, and totally useless, but not likely to spin out of control. Delete; could be a category if it matters —Wahoofive (talk) 04:36, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge with Theme song. The subject matter's small enough to go right in the main article. -- -- Bobdoe (Talk) 07:49, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and redirect per Bobdoe. Theme song is the best place to mention them. - Mgm|(talk) 09:11, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and redirect to theme music ('theme song' redirects there). Flowerparty■ 15:29, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete this page and create category per Wahoofive. --Jacquelyn Marie 16:55, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Unmaintainable. Don't categorise: it would mean that nearly every programme would be in one of these categories (theme music either has lyrics, or it doesn't). Merging would make the parent article look messy -- and huge! (Merge, of course, the relevant information into the individual programme articles). The JPS 10:23, 5 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete pointless lists. --Calton | Talk 23:50, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep.--I found the list of theme songs that mention the show in the lyrics interesting and useful. Trivia? Yes, but you can reduce all information to the level of trivia if it doesn't interest you. The other lists (instrumental themes and themes that DON'T mention the show in the lyrics) don't seem so essential to me, since, as other folks mention, it all becomes reductive after a while.--June
- Delete this page and create category. Lists are a pain to maintain, categories maintain themselves. MH 18:57, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete this page and create category making sure that theme song has a "see also" to it. Alf melmac 19:45, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
