I haven't seen anyone say The Boondocks yet. That show has a banger of an intro.

Battlestar Galactica, Haven, Fringe, Orphan Black,
and there are a few more I don't skip more often than I do, like DS9, Stargate: Atlantis, Rome and the Tudors.
Some series just have really nice intros!
- Mindhunter
- Dark
- Got
- Adventure time
- Peacemaker
- True detective (season 1)
- Peaky blinders
I always wait for kirk to say "Space" before skipping the intro to Star Trek, always gets a chortle from my partner and I.
I used to not skip POI(Person Of interest), every intro had characters from the episode.
True blood, ultimate vibe setter
Farscape - just love the music.
Babylon 5 season 3. Same reason. Why did they use this music only in the intro of season 3 is beyond me. (Although they used it in outro in season 4). The rest of the seasons they have very cheesy music in the intro.
Can't believe no one mentioned Mad Men yet!
Fringe
Big mouth, has a great opening song "Changes" by Charles Bradley
Peacemaker
Such a catchy song! And the dancing is freaking hilarious. Brought a grin to my face every episode.
- Jeeves and Wooster.
- Narcos
- Westworld
- Good Omens
- Twin Peaks
- Flowers
- Sherlock
- Peaky Blinders (I'm sorry)
- Medici
- Vikings
- Disenchantment
- Kingdom (the stephen fry show)
I cannot believe there's so many. And I'm sure I've missed a few. Damn
New intro to true detective. Its a refreshing change from all the GoT type intros that has become ubiquitous.
For me its Amazons Wheel of Time series. Seeing the threads get woven into the images of the world and then all coming together to be spun by the great wheel gets me emotional. They could bomb the remaining seasons and I would still be grateful for the opening.
Too Many Cooks.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 series)
What we do in the shadows.
Dark. Westworld.
