That er was eens intro is so awesome, you know you were going to watch something that must be very important or something

The German opening, really good. I think the dutch opening was the same as the German, but I'm not sure cause as a kid I used to watch German tv a lot... (I'm actually not even sure whether it was broadcasted at all in Holland). Anyway, the German version had it's own soundtrack, which is really very good. It was bootlegged a while ago. Most known track is probably 'Feinde Greifen An' ('Enemies Attack'). At 4:56 you can hear it:

It popped up in a few remixes and covers from time to time.

Word! Emotionally this one touches me deep. If that's because of nostalgia I don't know but it does.

And the intro of Wonder Wereld is a classic in Dutch TV-history together with the immortal Chriet.

Haha, yeah a lot of that shit was quite macho all together, like the Dukes of Hazard, Chips, and the Fall Guy. I remember this series called 'the Master' and all the kids started to make and use their own 'throwing stars'... Apparently it became quite a problem, because (if I remember correctly) the broadcasting station had to reschedule it at a later time and at some point the dutch police started this program where you could trade your stars for a Frisbee

Same thing in the village I grew up with the hype around the ninjastars. Some kids had homemade ninjastars made out of chunks of metal and threw them into wooden fences after schooltime. When you're young you don't see danger...

Another strong Dutch one i.m.o.

I like the voice-over on that Twilight Zone-intro but I like the images and music better of the version from 1985 (according to the tag on youtube):
