Shame, shame on us all! How dare we allow the glory of Thomas Magnum to drop to 42. A pox on all our houses!

42. Magnum P.I.

It might be the world's shortest intro and the rendering's a bit messed, but damn if I don't get goosebumps every time it comes on

43. Lost

Fuck yeah, man. That theme tune is shit-hot. I sing it to myself every time I go into a karate stance.

51: THE PERSUADERS!

A split-screen montage of Roger Moore and Tony Curtis rising from childhood to millionairehood, complete with clips of them waterskiing and checking out tail. All with an icy John Barry theme tune.

56. Monty Pythons Flying Circus.

Genuine contender for the best opening sequence EVER.
And Spike...just grabbed a couple of Dexter episodes on your recommendation. I owe you big time for shouting out about Jekyll so I'll let you know how it goes.

Aaah, the days when TV shows had a flying car in the credit sequence and someone jumping onto the front of a moving car.

Thats from the original pilot. Such a shitty song from the mind of Glen A. Larson.

- I was also going to post The Shield as the intro song hooks me like no other. But that really isn't an opening credit sequence so I didn't think it qualified.

67. Post movie opening credits (season 3) Transformers.

The song is better, the season 1 animation for the opening was probably better though.

Yeah, I have to side with the original tune too. That synthesized drumbeat in season 3 is a little annoying.

Of course I'm also partial to this version.

78. Jam.

Each intro is unique: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Personally, I think this series opening is unbeatable.

I really prefer this opening credit sequence for the first season instead of the 'Cleveland Rocks' sequence that came later.
