I analyze the people the same way in the closing credits below lol

Jeffersons
Threes company season 4 to 8
Welcome back kotter
Odd Couple
Archie Bunkers place

I love the scenes on the opening and closing credits on Welcome Back Kotter AND on Taxi!

Good Times is another closing credits where there are lots of kids running and people outside.

Archie Bunker's place is another one that has real street scenes in the opening.

My favorite is the guy on roller skates on the Threes Company opening on the beach. He's in the bottom left corner for the opening roof scene to the beach. I assume he had no idea he was being filmed.
