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

The change in season 3 is a bit jarring.

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)
  • 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.

Gravity Falls and Futurama.

Peacemaker. Its intro kicks ass

[–] stsquad@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

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

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

Succession. That music is awesome.

[–] quinacridone@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year 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

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Most Star Trek openings are short and with epic music.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago

Better call Saul

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

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

[–] CaptSneeze@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[–] CaptSneeze@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Fleabag - season 1

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The Apothecary Diaries. Japanese Shakira rules!

[–] morphballganon@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year 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.

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

I don't ever skip the opening :)

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

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

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

Greatest American Hero

Also, probably Welcome Back Kotter.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 1 points 2 years 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.

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

Six Feet Under

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

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

[–] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

WKRP in Cincinnati

[–] friek@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

From, mainly because the opening song is so awesome.
