Started up season 2 of Avatar The Last Airbender and it occurred to me that I never skip the intro sequences for any episode of this show. It’s just so good.

What other show intros can you not skip?

X-Men tas is iconic and the animated '90s reboot had some fun with the intro, Batman tas is a classic, and game of thrones had a really good intro to set the tone for an episode.

It's kind of cheating but Invincible. Since the intro is like 5 seconds long

[–] coaxil@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

Neon genesis intro. Glorious!

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I quite liked "Boardwalk Empire" intro.

Lost and Scrubs because they're so short.

Psych because it's fun and catchy.

Previously Murdoch Mysteries, but I hate the new intro this season and have been skipping it.

Justified. Same intro for all six seasons and so good.

[–] anotherhoffmann@feddit.org 4 points 4 months ago

Dark, Stranger Things, Cowboy Bebop

The Simpsons. The chalkboard and couch gags are worth the watch.

[–] Courantdair@jlai.lu 1 points 4 months ago

I always wait to see the chalkboard, then +20s brings me just before the couch

Not that I rewatch Games of Thrones really but I would always watch that intro, and got unreasonably excited when some new region was “unlocked”.

[–] UniversalMonk@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Yep, I loved the Game of Thrones intro and the music. Hearing it would get me hyped for the episode!

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

[–] Commiunism@beehaw.org 1 points 4 months ago

The Sopranos intro, hands down

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 months ago

Does Unreal Tournament counts? Otherwise it would be Deus Ex.

Arcane, it's always a good intro.

Woke up this mornin, got yourself a gun

I can tell you an intro I always skip, SG-1. I love that show so much, but the into sucks for all 10 seasons.

[–] Junkernaught@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 months ago

Dude same. I didn't mind so much that weird yet clsssy one of the blue pharoah-like thing, but when they redid it to the one with shots from the show and people striking dramatic poses it was awful. So. Naff.

Deadman Wonderland.

can't get over the millennium edgy English sung lyrics

"I'll BEH YOUER DEAUD MAUUUNNN"

Peacemaker and What We Do in the Shadows. I just love the music.

[–] YaksDC@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

Absolutely!

[–] TacoEvent@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 months ago

Peacemaker’s a good one!! Gotta check out What We Do.

[–] HuntressHimbo@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago

I think the second Dungeon Meshi intro is the one for me. Its so upbeat and the animation is cute and funny.

[–] maarvin@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Dandadan. The little dance that Aira does is fun
