For me it was GoT, I just thought the miniature landscapes looked way too cool. Also I am watching Kimmy Unbreakable which has a theme song that I think is pretty catchy.
Attack on Titan. Surprised it got no mention here.
- Succession (and it’s not even close, this is clear cut #1 for the slap factor)
- Bluey
- Halt and Catch Fire
- True Detective S1
- The Righteous Gemstones (cheating since it’s only 10 seconds)
- The Brady Bunch
- Dragonball Z (Toonami airing)
- Scooby Doo, Where Are You? S2
- White Lotus S1 (this is so close to Succession for me)
- Westworld S1
- Severance
A few more I really love. I’ll add more as I remember them (there are many and I can’t remember them all now)
Wow… why would HBO geoblock a fucking INTRO?
Because you wouldn’t pirate a car—right?!
I liked the First Season opening for DBZ but only for like the first 50 or so episodes then it changed

BB there’s barely anything to skip. Intro is like 8 seconds.

I listened to the Inside Job theme for all 6 minutes 54 seconds it would play (22 seconds per episodes). It never overstayed its welcome
Iirc the GoT intros gave you a hint about the episode by highlighting the map areas that the episode was going to cover. But S8 ended up being so bad that it went back in time and ruined the entire series for me, so I never rewatched it and might be misremembering.
Right now I never skip the intro for What We Do in the Shadows. It’s the same every time, but the song is just too much fun to skip. I am probably on my fourth watching of that series.
I think I also sit through most of the Star Trek intros just because I enjoy the visuals.
WWDIIS has at least 2 episodes that play variants on the theme song!
If you happen to remember which episodes, please let me know! I haven’t noticed that on any of my pass throughs.
My mind was blown while re-watching The Wire (where I also never skipped the intro). I said to myself “The singers change but the song remains the same.” Then my brain blew up because that’s the entire point of the series.
S03E08 is the one that’s in Farsi!
Thank you thank you thank you!

Bluey!
As a dad and a music geek, I finally managed to figure out the time signature and intervals properly, enabling me to yell the names at the perfect time.
That’s not an intro, it’s a work of art wrapped in cocaine.
Except we change the names to my similar aged kids and they wiggle their bums and spin when it’s their turn.
- Jeeves and Wooster.
- Narcos
- Westworld
- Good Omens
- Twin Peaks
- Flowers
- Sherlock
- Peaky Blinders (I’m sorry)
- Medici
- Vikings
- Disenchantment
- Kingdom (the stephen fry show)
I cannot believe there’s so many. And I’m sure I’ve missed a few. Damn
New intro to true detective. Its a refreshing change from all the GoT type intros that has become ubiquitous.
Adventure Time
All of them. I don’t skip intros and I’ve never understood why anyone does.
I imagine it started back when you could record TV onto VHS, you could FF through all of the intros, but since the “binging” era of netflix, all streaming services want you back in the action right away so they give you the option to skip. People get addicted to binging shows and they don’t want anything to delay their mild dopamine hit. I don’t get it either.
If I’m watching another episode immediately, I don’t want the intro again so I’ll skip that.
South land
Westworld .
And top gear (the proper Clarkson/Hammond/May one, not that other thing)
I don’t skip intros. It sets the tone for what is about to come.
For Kimmy Schmidt, you definitely need to skip the intro on the finale movie.
