Hi all, first thread so thought I'd do a fun, lighthearted one! What are the shows with an intro/theme song that you just can't skip? For me it's Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Ted Lasso and Community! Love the music in the second two and the cold opens for B99! What about you?

Seconded

Black Sails - intro music is so powerful

Can't believe no one has said Victoria
absolutely hauntingly beautiful
The Durrells
Stranger things
Downton Abbey

But like a PP I never skip. Feels mean to the poor people who worked so hard to make them-I think it's all part of watching

The Last Kingdom! And never skip the recap either. Destiny Is All!

Treme!

In fact the whole soundtrack is brilliant and I've played it to death.

Oh I had forgotten about Treme! Brilliant series - I'll have to dig my DVDs out again.

Another 'whole soundtrack' one is the Norwegian oil drama State of Happiness (Lykkeland)

And I don't think Deadwind has been mentioned
