Best TV show openings?

[Ilikemuppets]

I looooved CBS Storybrake's opening! I used to get up early just to hear the Theme Song! Really loved the show by the way too!

And of course there was Denver :3
Golly, what happened to theme songs being catchy?

If you've seen it, Double the Fist- cause its stupidly OTT with the explosions etc.

The Puzzle Place opening was pretty cool.

And then there's The Magic School Bus.

I don't know if this counts, since it was released on home videos, but the Mickey's Fun Songs intro was pretty nice also.

People nowadays seemingly just want to jump into the action without a second thought.

I've decided I like TV shows without openings b/c that usually means there's an extra minute or so of actual story

But sometimes, the openings take us into the story, just as other musical numbers may move a story forward.

Most of the newer shows stories aren't good enough to make that time worthwhile IMHO. I would rather at least have a good song to remember a bad show with

but bad shows never keep my attention beyond one episode, so it's ok

I've said it before, and I'll say it again...

I love the live actionFraggle Rock opening

but I think that the Animated opening has a better beginning. i love the piano riff a LOT more than that other thing...
