    In Jojo’s Bizzare Advanture, once the season’s villain has revealed their ability, the opening will be slightly altered to include it in a way that make the opening’s cryptic nature suddenly make sense. Also, I love that by the end of a season, you suddenly realized that the opening was basically a giant spoiler that includes all key plot points, but you simply didn’t notice until you actually watched the corresponding episodes.

      I absolutely love The Expanse intro – I always let it play for the incredible song and started to notice all the changing visuals to match the progression in the show as a result.

      DuckTales is one of those opening songs that I sing along with because I know the lyrics. The Expanse is one of those opening songs that I sing along with despite not knowing any of the lyrics at all.

          The only lyrics I remember are his name in the chorus but it’s definitely stuck with me. Also he’s a space explorer! With that, Bucky O’Hare kind of bridges the gap between The Expanse and DuckTales in a way.

    It will always be TNG for me, but all the Star Trek shows have great intros IMO.

    SPACE

    The final frontier…

      This was what I was looking for, the intro to Peacemaker never fails to brighten my day! It’s easily the most James Gunn thing imaginable and it’s brought to life for all to enjoy. I added so many songs from that show’s soundtrack onto my workout playlist, all starting with the intro song.

      It is so completely perfect that I’m really curious what they’re gonna do for the Season 2 intro with new incoming characters in place of the leaving minor characters since they brilliantly used even actors in small roles as part of the big dance.

      ditto but that’s not a big achievement … show went downhill pretty fast … only kept watching for the uber smexy Deborah Ann Woll as Jessica

      As soon as I read this, the song started playing automatically in my head. Along with most of the visual sequences, and Richard Dean Anderson’s smile.

    Tv series:
    Memorable and really enjoyable: 24 (Jack “fucking” Bauer FTW) and Alias (the J.J. Abrams vehicle)
    Favourite: Cowboy Bebop (the anime obviously)
    Beautiful score: The Expanse

      I love the Alias theme, takes me back to the days of watching it one episode a week, some of those episodes were cliff hangers! I really need a rewatch now

        ditto … shame only the “HD” version is on streaming platforms … I missed the boat on the rambaldi box set … I’d very much like to own the series in 1080p on BD. if it were ever to be released it would be a day 1 purchase for me

    The theme from Sherlock along with Holmes’ little “the game is on” leimotif were pretty great.

    Same with the driving beat from the Arrow title card — in fact I’m a big fan of Blake Newly in general, but it’s the track “Setting Up the Lair” from the first season that plays most of my favourite elements.

    But the title sequence that stands out best for me is the 2010 version of the Doctor Who theme. The music from that season in particular has always hit me hard, but all of Murray Gold’s work on the show was phenomenal.
