View Full Version : Favorite Opening credits James"Thunder"Early 12-05-2004, 04:25 PM I like a lot of openings, but I think my favorite is the Jeffersons. EmoJoe 12-05-2004, 07:04 PM Boy Meets World Seasons 5, 6, 7 version Who's the Boss? Seasons 7 and 8 version (Though I like them all) Charmed All Seasons I Dream of Jeannie all seasons Everybody Loves Raymond- the version when Frank and Marie are coming and Ray and Debra try to pretend their not home Three's Company- the one when they're on the boardwalk jamesanthony 12-05-2004, 07:37 PM Sitcoms: Cosby Show- I like to see how they change from one year to the next- in terms of music the Apollo one is the best IMo, in terms of visuals the last season with the mural is the best, Jeffersons- the theme song rocks! I like just about all the visuals that appear throughout the various seasons except the ones from the Dallas takeoff which were used around season 9 Sanford and Son- the visuals are nothing special really but the music is so funky and really represents the series in general Roseanne- not so much for the music but I like the way the faces morphed in the last 2 seasons (esp Lecy Gorenson morphing into Sarah Chalke that was a funny in-joke) Dramas: Mission Impossible- the music is great but I like how they would edit in scenes from each episode into the opening and they were always the most exciting scenes Ironside- great theme music by Quincy Jones and very simple but effective black shadows against the blood red background Hawaii Five 0- very well done music and visuals the only complaint is they should have given the cast members different visuals every couple of years to keep it fresh Cartoons: Simpsons- how they manage to come up with something different in each opening over 16 years is pretty unique and amazing Children's shows: The Electric Company- They had about 4 different openings all pretty well done, esp the last 2 seasons when the actors morphed into themselves from the characters they played db108108 12-05-2004, 07:42 PM Everybody Loves Raymond- the version when Frank and Marie are coming and Ray and Debra try to pretend their not home They actually have the video to that opening in the ELR section of sitcoms online. David 12-05-2004, 08:52 PM Some of my favorites are Three's Company, Step By Step, and Full House. spunkygirl 12-05-2004, 09:02 PM Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: All Seasons Boy Meets World: Seasons 1, and 5-7 Who's the Boss?

I loved the original Friends opening, seen on the pilot, before NBC decided to muck it up and add episode footage. The most recent Will & Grace opening is kind of cool. Small Wonderian 12-05-2004, 11:27 PM The ones I really like would have to be: The Jeffersons Three's Company Silver Spoons Who's The Boss WilCap 12-05-2004, 11:34 PM Smallville Angel Buffy PZelda 12-06-2004, 12:08 AM Originally posted by jamesanthony Simpsons- how they manage to come up with something different in each opening over 16 years is pretty unique and amazing Amen to that! That is why The Simpsons has a spot on my list for favorite opening. And they have more than 300 episodes under their belt, as well. I know they repeated a few openings more than once, but you are right. :) I've also always been fond of the opening sequences to Home Improvement. Although this isn't a sitcom, I've also always been fond of how Trading Spaces opens - they used the same one for seasons 2-4 and Trading Spaces Family used Trading Spaces' seasons 2-4 opening. :D tylerjjj 12-11-2004, 07:21 PM Roseanne's theme opening was very original. My favorite is the seasons 1 and 5 opening |
