I always like that jazzy intro tune to "The Nanny".

Read Or Die

Noir

Akudama Drive

Orb: On The Movements Of The Earth

And for something that isn't weeb shit, Psych

I never skip intros. I love them all.

Raised by Wolves, the best intro ever made IMO. And currently Dope Thief, also superb.

The white lotus. I didn't like season 3's theme as much as the first 2's but I still like to listen

[–] M137@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I was unsure about the season 3 one at first but liked it more every episode.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 hours ago

Battlestar Galactica (the remake with Eddie Olmos) . It changes throughout the series, and it highlights important bits.

I'd say Firefly too, but that's just because it's awesome. Airwolf was the same way, back in its heyday, and it was cool in ways that knight rider wasn't.

But I'm here only for Battlestar today. So say we all.

The lack of Neon Genesis Evangelion on this list disappoints me.

[–] folaht@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

Why though? Apart from the fact that every next episode the theme starts to hit differently, but still matches the tone of the overall theme.

[–] fubarx@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago

Resident Alien, mainly because they change the graphics for every episode and throw in a gag.

Lots of good mentions. Especially The Expanse and Bluey.

I'd like to highlight the masterpiece that was Andor S1 intros though.

Almost every single show I watch. I'm weird in that I almost never can skip a TV show intro. Only exception I can think of right now is the short continuation of Batman the Animated Series they did just before Batman Beyond since they didn't change the intro to match the show.

House. I feel bad for anybody who's not seen it with the original into music.

The OG was Teardrop by Massive Attack, right?

[–] keepee@lemmy.world 5 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Wait...so what is it now? And when/why was it changed?

[–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 1 points 46 minutes ago

Hulu uses what I'm pretty sure was the ending credit song in the intro. Probably to avoid Teardrop royalties or something. I hate it so much, I didn't finish the series last time I tried to watch it.

whoever skips the x-men intro deserves to be thrown into the ocean

[–] ActuallyGoingCrazy@sh.itjust.works 23 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

The Expanse. Really enjoyed the visuals of progress with that great soundtrack.

[–] eightpix@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago

The best part about it is the subtlety. Tiny shifts across a season. Few changes in visuals across the entire run.

It is the most lovely theme song I've heard.

Silo. I like the music so much!

...and also: Gargoyles!

One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled. It was a time of darkness, it was a world of fear, it was the age of gargoyles. Stone by day, warriors by night. We were betrayed by the humans we had sworn to protect, frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years. Now, here in Manhattan, the spell is broken and we live again!

We are defenders of the night. We are gargoyles!
