Mi Chiamo Mork
Did you know that a) The Italian broadcasts of Mork and Mindy had a different theme song from the original, and b) The Italian theme song was a lot better than the original one?
The first season's theme in the American version was subdued and kind of sweet. The theme after that was the same, but the orchestration was bombastic and overly-pleased with its own funniness (kind of like the show after the first season as well). The Italian theme is definitely a major improvement over the latter.
