Not a good idea Jenn, it will take the right show with the right theme song to prove this to you and bring back the award. It is just a matter of time that someone will make a hit song and use it for a T.V. Series and the show will make the song and the song will make the show. That's when the emmys will have to jump back on board and give credit where credit is due. I advise you Jenn to do everything in your powers to keep this award because every show needs a theme song, that is what makes viewers aware that their show is on, the opening theme. Just my opinion, thanks for listening.

awww man, I was hoping Human Target would have a few chances of winning in this category, if nominated

MEOW! Jenn

How do you really feel about the article?

They NEVER said theme songsweren't important - READ THE ARTICLE!!!

Back in the day there WERE full theme songs you could still remember the words to. Now shows don't have any theme songs to identify each show- they just play a few seconds of music not a 'song' that woudl be considered a theme song for shows anymore - that's why they're stopping the category - because they don't exist anymore - so to PRESREVE the memory of those great shows & songs - they are stopping the category to award someone for 'theme song' when it's a couple notes during the creditsi s never the same and isn't anything that sticks in your head or has any song to remind you of that show specifically. I'm a member of the Academy - so until you actually read it - they are NOT at all demeaning the 'memory of the songs of shows past' that we all remember.

When you read a story use your mind don't just sound out the letters and maybe you'll get it right nex time & don't speak so much on something you clearly didn't understand. GO start with Red Fish Blue Fish and maybe you'll build up to being able to read grown up material and understand it before you comment out your a**

It's basically saying theme songs aren't important, thus overlooking decades of memorable themes (think Cheers, The Simpsons, Dallas, X-files, Mission:Impossible and so on)

As long as there are still enough theme songs around, why not keep the award, it even serves as encouragement for shows to have a theme song.

That's very sad about theme songs/main title music. I grew up with these, and they're too important to just fade away. There's no better way to set the tone for your series in under a minute. I was hoping they would come back one of these days. It seems like there are still enough around to justify the category, especially with HBO still using them.

There's one-hour animation?
