      This. Just because I want to see what regions the episode will be taking place in.

    Bojack Horseman, the song slaps and there’s way too many Easter eggs and jokes slipped onto the various intros to ignore them.

      I love how the intro changes depending on what happened in the previous episode, or what will happen. Take Bobo the Zebra. A changing intro gives me a reason to watch it, and yes the song slaps. I particularly love the full version we don’t get to hear a lot of.

    My wife claps during the Friends intro credits. Every time. EVERY. TIME.

    She’ll be in the other room, and hear it on the TV… I hear the clap clap, clap clap from her as it plays.

    Scrubs - it is short enough not to skip it and it’s also fairly catchy!

    The Sopranos, it really sets the mood. Game of Thrones too. And The Wire!

    I liked the Dexter intro too. Breaking Bad, though its pretty short. And House MD when it was Massive Attack.

      Hold up… they stopped using Massive Attack as the intro music for House? I must have stopped watching it by the time it changed.

        When they put it up on streaming it changed. They had different songs in different regions when it originally aired and the streaming version uses one of the other songs. Seems like a licensing thing?

      All of those HBO shows have great intros. I’ve heard HBO had a thing where they forced their showrunners to come up with an iconic and high quality intro. Apparently Mike Judge didn’t really want to do a big long intro for Silicon Valley, so they compromised and came up with the short intro that has tons of little hidden details.

    All of them. Intros set a mood, and that’s a really important part of consuming any piece of content for me.

    The Office US. Gets all the happy chemicals flowing.

    Actually, now that you reminded me of Gravity Falls, that one too. And for me at least, in both cases the music is doing the heavy lifting. Such great tunes, how can you skip that?

    Speaking of great music, I haven’t watched a full episode of GoT, but the intro is amazing! I look it up every now and then just to listen.

      I haven’t watched much of the office US but I can agree that the intro is very solid

        I just realized it’s kinda the same melody as the Game of Thrones intro
