Hey Pandas, When You Heard A TV Theme Song, What Did You Assume The Show Was About? (Closed)

I love listening to TV show theme songs and sometimes, I listen to them with no other context. This can lead to seriously funny misinterpretations of the show's premise, based on the song alone. What's your experience?

I've listened to too many theme songs without context but here's my favs

Six Feet Under: I thought it was about some guy who dug holes in the ground (it ISN'T)

✨Dexter💕: I thought it was a horror show about a creepy small child (it ISN'T)

BoJack Horseman: A weird horse (it is true)

Total Drama Island: Friends on vacation (it ISN'T)

The Sopranos: I had no idea cause the guy singing the song was mumbling the whole time but I misheard the lyrics as "Woke up as a snowman and got myself a gun". (the show has nothing to do with gun-wielding snowmen but that would be something)

I remember once as a child getting very excited when I heard and saw a Warner Brothers theme music, only to discover Warner Brothers made other shows, not just cartoons.
