I'm reasonably sure I heard the track "The Ambush" on The Twilight Zone. I definitely heard it on The Fugitive.
His music on the second volume of the CBS Years series showcases a score he wrote for the radio drama "Brave New World." That was used on TZ a few times. "Third from the Sun" most strongly.

I assume you just want a simple "yes or no" answer since you are being vague about the music, and it would be a huge research project to answer your question in detail. It seems probable, but maybe Jim Doherty or Ron B knows for certain. Or if you can move out of your FSM comfort zone, email the guys at the site above. Bill Wrobel would know but I dont know if he visits FSM. He mentions several series that had tracked in music, but not necessarily which came from which, in his Herrmann TV music treatise:

Well, many people here could provide a simple "yes or no" answer if you asked if any Herrmann music was used in "Lost in Space." For all I know, there may have been obvious cues that popped up in iconic TZ moments, just as 12-Mile Reef music was used for the jet pack scenes in LIS.
Your response would suggest that there is no obvious answer.
As for the Herrmann board, it is a graveyard.

I edited my response above, but my advice remains the same. Correlate or reverse engineer the scoring - find the western cues in the episodes, and maybe there are some that you would have only identified with TWZ. Of course not every cue Herrmann wrote will be as iconic or distinctive as the two Fox film cues, but there's probably some gems in there. Again, I think the issue is the western TV sources arent as widely known as the Fox films, and that they're written for TV, not feature films. As Scott wrote earlier, some of Herrmann's iconic TWZ music originated in a radio score.
Part of what I am getting at is the nature of TV music - or, more specifically, music used on TV shows - and our associations with this music if we hear it at an impressionable age.
As a kid, I watched "Twilight Zone," "Star Trek," and "Lost in Space" over and over through the years. Certain pieces of music made a real impression on me, especially if it got used over and over again in the series. For example, music from "Where is Everybody," the Herrmann TZ pilot, was used a fair amount throughout the run of the series. Many years later, when I picked up "The Best of Twilight Zone" on CD, I recognized this music instantly. Same thing with Jerry Goldmith's bongo-driven nervous jazz TZ music. I eventually picked up the 4-CD set and also the 2-disc Herrmann TZ set conducted by McNeely. It seems that most or all of the TZ music that really made an impression on me is on one or both of those sets.
On the other hand, when I got "Lost in Space" volume 1, which included Williams' music for the first three or whatever episodes, I specifically remember waiting for the jet pack music. I went back through the disc looking for it a second time, but it wasn't there. It was some time later when I discovered this was Herrmann "12-Mile Reef" music. In what I've read on this site over the years, I am not the only one who noticed this music.
So I asked about the Herrmann's CBS westerns to see if any of this music was used in TZ, and if anyone had jet-pack-like associations with any particular cues.
I probably should have titled the thread "Memorable Library Music Used in Twilight Zone."
