Every good show is made great by the sound track and music production.

Think of The Original Series, The Next Generation .... even Star Wars or Indiana Jones or the movie Jaws ... shows that were good but if you ever watched them, you can instantly identify them and appreciate them just by hearing the opening theme song or title song.

Most people don't realize but one of our most strongest senses is our sense of hearing ... it's directly wired to our core animal instincts of fight, flight, fear and anxiety. It's based on our old prehistoric animal ancestor brain that once lived in dark holes and lived in the dark ... they had to rely on that sense of hearing to survive. Hearing is more strongly tied to our animal brain than sight. I learned all this because this is the same mechanism that aggravates tinnitus, ringing in the ears. When you worry or are afraid, your sense of hearing increases, then you start hearing a ringing, when you hear ringing, it makes you worry that something is wrong, so you worry more, the more you worry, the more ringing and on and on.

That same mechanism is why we love hearing music and theme songs so much .... music is directly tied to our emotions and memory.

All of the Star Trek sound effects are iconic too. Any Star Trek fan can recognize the sound of a transporter, whether it's TOS era or TNG era. Same with the red alert sound.
