    The Taskmaster intro always hypes me up for every episode

    Also the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme could not fit any more perfectly. To this day every time I see the static noise before any HBO show I expect to hear “bum Bum BUM daaaaaaah…”

        The theme itself is ‘Frolic’ by Luciano Michelini, composed in 1974 for the film ‘La bellissima estate’ and used since then in some advertisements, in which Larry David had heard it. ‘Curb’ generally uses several old ‘production music’ pieces, i.e. those from a music library for films, tv and such. ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ also does this.
