Nothing was more iconic for my childhood... or early adult years. Or hell, whenever.

MisatoNERV: 1) the first season of The Wire had an awesome theme song/title sequence.

2) the Barenaked Ladies suck and I hate when they're compared to They Might Be Giants.



Hey! Don't insult the most celebrated Canadian alt-rock band of the mid 90s, you selfish, jaded, ass!

JeffMD: This makes me sad... you guys have no idea how deprived you are.

Resident anime nut here, it pains me when people talk about how so many american shows are so great.. sorry.. american TV sucks balls. Reuse the same intros for the entire damn series, and use sound tracks which are a mix of licensed tracks and really poor custom compositions by a third rate music producer. So...BAD.

Anyways.. as far as top tv intros I have seen.. the ghost in the shell series def has top marks but #1 would probably goto Last Exile. Gonzo's production values on this series is just phenomenal.

Spaced Cowboy: I don't see how it is childish that I prefer not to watch that shiatty faux-suspenseful bullshiat again. Sorry your shiatty show turned out to be shiatty, but you don't have to take it out on others.

I own dozens of shows that are anything but perfect that I frequently rewatch, including the oft maligned BSG and B5 season 1 (yeah I even rewatch the pilot when I go through the series again). Lost is the only show I've bought that I simply have no interest in rewatching, because it ended up being meaningless nonsense. Knowing now that it was all bullshiat in the end makes it really hard to enjoy the "OMG SUSPENSE DETAILS MYSTERY" that was the appeal of Lost.

That show was never brilliant... not even when they had us tricked into thinking it was a coherent piece of storytelling with an interesting finish.

Bad endings eh?  Simply bullsh*t, hmm?  Pointless waste of time, if you please?

Your shows are safe.  While you're watching them, you get to become a Kardashian or David Caruso.

Have you ever been TRAPPED.  In St. Eligius Hospital. SURROUNDED by the wretched infirm that other hospitals deemed unfit to treat?  Just trying to survive another day without losing your mind, for YEARS on end?  Only to find that you were merely the figment of some autistic child's imagination?

That's what I'm talking about.  The shows you watch are safe.

If opening sequences are measured according to how memorable they are... then again, that might also include the Brady Bunch and the Flintstones.

Reminds me--Miami Vice Theme is great when played on a piano with an airport lounge attitude.

The Zenith/Nadir of TV show intros has to be a tie between Perfect Strangers and Mr. Belvedere.
