Game of Thrones. Best part of the latter seasons.

This. Just because I want to see what regions the episode will be taking place in.

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bojack Horseman, the song slaps and there's way too many Easter eggs and jokes slipped onto the various intros to ignore them.

[–] Wildchandelure@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

I love how the intro changes depending on what happened in the previous episode, or what will happen. Take Bobo the Zebra. A changing intro gives me a reason to watch it, and yes the song slaps. I particularly love the full version we don't get to hear a lot of.

[–] lodion@aussie.zone 18 points 1 year ago (3 children)

My wife claps during the Friends intro credits. Every time. EVERY. TIME.

She'll be in the other room, and hear it on the TV... I hear the clap clap, clap clap from her as it plays.

The song lives rent free in my head regularly

For me its Gravity Falls. I love the music.

[–] kresten@feddit.dk 2 points 1 year ago

I should rewatch it soon, probably one of my favorite tv-shows of all time

[–] mrmanager@lemmy.today 13 points 1 year ago

Succession. Love the music.

[–] oxideSeven@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Expanse. Just so beautiful!

[–] falx@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Seconded. The Expanse's intro song is amazing!

[–] mr_robot@programming.dev 10 points 1 year ago

Parks and recs because it's so upbeat. Homeland too but for an entirely different reason

[–] animist@lemmy.one 10 points 1 year ago

First season of true detective

[–] HaalandsLusciousHair@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)
[–] Silviecat44@vlemmy.net 3 points 1 year ago

I appreciate short and to the point intros like Breaking Bad

[–] oryx@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Better Call Saul as well!

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Tbf it would be hard to reach the skip button before it's already over

[–] itadakimasu@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

White lotus. So funky

The Sopranos, it really sets the mood. Game of Thrones too. And The Wire!

I liked the Dexter intro too. Breaking Bad, though its pretty short. And House MD when it was Massive Attack.

All of them. Intros set a mood, and that’s a really important part of consuming any piece of content for me.

Omg it's been years since I watched it and I just heard the theme in my head like it was the first time... I need to rewatch it now

[–] CallMeM@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Scrubs - it is short enough not to skip it and it's also fairly catchy!

[–] IntergalacticZombie@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Malcolm in the Middle and Community for me, for the same reasons.

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Malcolm in the Middle's slaps because it's played by They Might Be Giants

[–] asexualchangeling@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Doctor who, no matter the version of the intro

[–] wols@beehaw.org 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Office US. Gets all the happy chemicals flowing.

Actually, now that you reminded me of Gravity Falls, that one too. And for me at least, in both cases the music is doing the heavy lifting. Such great tunes, how can you skip that?

Speaking of great music, I haven't watched a full episode of GoT, but the intro is amazing! I look it up every now and then just to listen.

  • The Punisher
  • Every Star Trek show
  • Firefly

They can't take the sky from me

[–] Kissaki@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mushoku Tensei / Jobless Reincarnation

Great music, setting mood in an exceptional way, every episode different background / scenes in it, exceptional for world-building.
