I've seen the entire show and I still passionately hate the theme song.

I loved the original, ultra cheesy version of the the song. And yet, I absolutely loathe the second arrangement that tried to make it less cheesy.

So, basically it's a case of Schroedingers Faith of the heart for me - I love it and I hate it.

It was all upbeat while the show took a dark turn in the expanse. It was the worst of moves in the worst of times.

I’m with you on that exactly. Never skipped for the first two seasons, always skipped for the last two. It’s cheesy of course, but it seems to capture the early 2000s optimism of space exploration and technology in general, showing the ISS and the shuttles.

My father was an avid enterprise fan and that song was his alarm for years, he woke up at 7 and subsequently woke me, I have severe PTSD when I hear it

I thought the series kind of sucked, but I actually liked the song. I'll show myself out...
