10 out of 11 with some guesses involved! What about the great guitar player and singer Steve Wariner performing the theme song for Who's the Boss!? Someone else did it for part of the series but Steve was the best.

Here's a little trivia from way back when: Remember the theme song from the Hercules cartoon from the early 60s? Johnny Nash sang it; the same man who sang "I Can See Clearly Now".

I'm surprised they didn't have "My Two Dads" and "BJ and the Bear"
