"it's been a long road..."

The change in season 3 is a bit jarring.

  • Game of Thrones because the animation is awesome
  • Foundation because the animation is awesome
  • Breaking Bad because it's so short it would be more effort to skip it
  • Futurama because there's always a text gag and sometimes a visual one
  • The Simpsons (on the rare occasion) because every opening sequence is different
  • Black Books because I like the music
  • Better Off Ted because the Viridian Dynamics "advertisements" are funny

I loved the animation for GOT with the pop up mechanical castles! It also helped to give an overview of where the action would be for that episode, as well as looking really cool!

Also House of the Dragon with the embroidery being stitched (very apt for 2 female protagonists) and the mythology/world building of Valyria....

The Expanse. So much going on in that opening, plus it updates depending on what's happening in the series.

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

I agree and like The 100 intro for the same reason.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago

Peacemaker. Its intro kicks ass

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Gravity Falls and Futurama.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

Most Star Trek openings are short and with epic music.

[–] stsquad@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

House of the Dragon usually has little tweaks to the intro each episode which reflect how the season is evolving.

Succession. That music is awesome.

[–] quinacridone@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

My bf hated that music! I loved it and would get pissed off when he fast forwarded it, I used to look for the elephant and know the hip hop(?) beat would kick in (apologies, I'm not down with the young person lingo these days) 🤘

Brilliant show, actors and intro

[–] sodalite@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 month ago

any opening that is a minute or less can play. anything longer will be skipped.

Better call Saul

[–] ghost_towels@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

House of Cards, I liked the music and I used to live there so liked seeing all the landmarks. Never watched past the first season though.

Trailer park boys. It’s a serene calm to the chaos that comes

Fleabag - season 1

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Game of Thrones, and I pointed out the weirwood tree to my wife every time.

[–] Vertelleus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If we're allowing anime, Cowboy Bebop (animated).

[–] CaptSneeze@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Not only would I never skip the intro, I often listen to it when I need a mood lift. 10/10 banger!

[–] Opisek@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I don't ever skip the opening :)

[–] whelk@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (80s)

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Bad Sisters - because PJ Harvey.

Evil - because you get haunted if you do.

[–] goober@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Six Feet Under

What We Do in the Shadows (cuz I love that song)

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

The Leftovers.

[–] friek@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

From, mainly because the opening song is so awesome.

[–] morphballganon@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 month ago

The wording is correct! Though I would have made show plural, as a singular noun there implies a person can't have more than one.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 1 points 1 month ago

I don't think I have one but I do get nostalgic for the old cartoon openings and often let them go. heman, mask, defenders of the earth, thundercats, etc.

WKRP in Cincinnati

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Also, probably Welcome Back Kotter.
