Have you guys ever heard of any game show theme songs in particular that were reinterpreted in arrangements by rock bands and/or orchestras?

Nope.

Dayum!  I kinda like that arrangement.

A few years ago, I stumbled on (via YouTube) a bagpipe band doing "A Swingin' Safari".  Does that count?  Can't seem to locate it now.

You didn't look hard enough.

The TPIR theme has a lot of nuance and is an easy one to screw up:
