Possible hot take, I like the sudden 'cut to title' intros.

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

Alpha! That bitch escaped! Gimme 5 muthafuckin' teenagers with muthafuckin' attitudes!

 

[VulcanRaven]

Its MacGyver and X-Files.

Firefly

Man i forgot how much i like this one

 

[Krathoon]

The Doctor Who intros are all top notch. Especially the new series.

 

[Little Mac]

 

[Gameboy415]

Lots of great stuff posted already, but these theme songs have been stuck in my head for decades:

 

[Valedix]

 

[Johnny2Bad]

 

[*Nightwing]

 

[What A Shame...]

Game of Thrones is goated for being dynamic.
Fringe (also dynamic but not as frequent as GoT).
The X-Files
True Detective
Twin Peaks

Intros that haven't been mentioned:

Dark
Awesome show. Awesome intro.



The Walking Dead
The series shit the bed around Season 5/6 but hearing this intro in early seasons was great.

 

[Trunx81]

seriously? No one?



The best intro song ever created.

 

[Mr1999]

 

[j0hnnix]

 

[John Marston]

And this

You went straight for my heart!

Here's a couple from my childhood.

 

[Billbofet]

 

[Meicyn]

seriously? No one?



The best intro song ever created.

Thing is, Darkwing Duck’s theme is better.

 

[NeverYouMind]

It is good, but I am a bit numb to it as I am watching the show so often on DVD.

 

[BadBurger]

I'm going to go with the X-Files. It's iconic even thirty or so years after it released just because of its audio and visuals. And I wasn't even a fan of the show. I think I watched two episodes and barely remember the plot. Something about a wolf that was an alien or some shit.

 

[kunonabi]

 

[RJMacready73]

Gotta be this for me as it was this song that kicked off a connection with a girl who I would eventually end up marrying...

 

[jufonuk]

Now we’re talking

 

[Vlodril]

 

[Goss Harag]

The absolute greatest music of all time.

 

[Superkewl]

CSI: Miami



Bonus: Collection of Horatio one-liners:



Best 80's cartoon opening:

 

[EverydayBeast]

 

[Drake]

I mean, I don't even really think this is debatable.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

0:09 to 1:32


Obviously not.

This is the worst intro I have ever seen in my life.

This intro is like a Bizarre anomaly

 

[E-Cat]

ER is pretty good. Also Jeeves and Wooster. Curb is genius in its brevity

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Finally! To me when it comes to TV openings, nothing beats this... remember it came out in 1967! And the opening already talks about the orwellian powers of governments facilitated by data collection and processing! Way, way ahead of its time, both thematically and aesthetically.

Here's my contribution:

 

[Cattlyst]

I was searching for Heathcliffe in this thread!

 

[Hudo]

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Good god, I'd totally forgot about Flipper! I used to love that!

My memory is totally shot!

Brilliant show, and utterly bonkers. Even back then I used to think 'What the hell even is this, is this real?'

Loved it. I managed to grab the boxset from a charity shop a couple of months back, for £2. Someone didn't like it as much

 

[ClanOfNone]

Mysterious Cities of Gold intro gives the best nostalgia hit, ahhh memories.

 

[consoul]

The Rockford Files.
Old as hell, but killer theme song with photo montage of pure manliness.
