The theme music for the opening credits during the show's three seasons was written by John Williams. Movie triviasts have said that echoes of this musical score can be heard in Williams' soundtrack to the movie Jurassic Park.

The musical theme in the first two seasons was a bit "cartoony" matching the opening credit sequence.

In year three, the opening theme was changed (again by Williams) to an exciting faster tempo action theme and featured a pumped-up countdown from seven to one to launch each episode.

John Williams (then known as Johnny Williams) also composed many of the much-praised background scores for the series, which have been released on CD. He also wrote themes and musical scores for Irwin Allens's The Time Tunnel and Land of the Giants.
