TV intros you just can't skip

[BlueMoonCity]

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?

All of them! I don't really know why, but skipping intros is a no-no in our house. We often randomly shout 'Don't skip intro!!!' even though we all know full well that none of us would .

Bosch. Not the Legacy remake, that into is crap in comparison, but the original series.
Touch (programme from years back which starred Keifer Sutherland). A beautiful into which is only bettered by Bosch.
House as well, fantastic intro.

Another vote for Death In Paradise. Love that starting music.

Another vote for Only Murders in the Building. My husband always goes to skip the intro and it really annoys me. Same with The Last Kingdom.

Sopranos
The OC
And of course Bluey 😊

Firefly

Count Duckula. Both the opening and closing themes.

Shetland

Hill Street Blues
Moonlighting
MAS*H
Boon
Tales of the Unexpected
Big Little Lies
The Affair

I loved the Holby City music

True Blood (best ever)
Twin peaks
Bosch
Tales of the unexpected
The muppet show and fraggle rock

Kath and Kim

I always sing the last word 'moiiii'

Beverly Hills 90210

Old thread (appeared in the “similar threads” list) - my unmissable intros are Due South and Sleepers (1991 - can’t find the titles online, unfortunately).

Bad Sisters had an amazing opening credits and song

Bad Sisters on Apple TV

I love it. Its so dark to listen to and visually confusing (but makes sense in the final few episodes!!)

I sometimes play it on Alexa.

😂 what a coincidence!

Taskmaster - the way that the lovely giant Greg Davies looks over his typewriter with that raised eyebrow and cheeky grin which looks like he's full of wicked thoughts. Cor!

Parenthood

Slow horses

Northern Exposure!

Awww Due South . And Constable Benton Fraser 😍But yes, definitely no skipping that intro!

The Camomile Lawn.

I think that's a piece by Raval?

Brideshead Revisited as already mentioned.

It was part of the whole "experience" of the programme.

After that music you knew that you were in for a treat!

Band of Brothers. It’s DHs favourite series and he’s watched it about three times. I’ve never watched more than a couple of episodes but always go in to listen to the music. So haunting and elegaic.

American horror story, love the way they change it slightly to fit the season!
