What are your favorite TV show intros?
I love the intros to both Dexter and House, of all the shows I watch I sit through those every time. As opposed to most other shows that I fast forward right through.
House Intro

One of my all-time favorite TV show intros is The Drew Carey show "Five O'Clock World" intro with the song by the Vogues

Hands down, Lucy Daughter of the Devil has the best intro ever! Amazingly, it's a different song/animation/theme for every episode and it's fucking awesome to say the least.
PS, look it up yourself you lazy fucks. :devil2:

Fan-fucking-tastic. That zoom to Lord on top of the building and then he turns around into a standard close-up is one of my favorite camera shots of all time.
However, I think I can top it:

I like the Dexter intro, but the lack of continuity really bugs me. He shaves when he gets up, but he's all stubbly by the time he's having breakfast, and he's sporting the Don Johnson look by the time he heads out the door. How fast does this guy's beard grow? And then, he seems to cook and eat his breakfast one item at a time. Seems very inefficient.

I agree with Funkman -- love the Odd Couple -- and Papabear -- Get Smart!
As far as contemporary shows, I agree with the Sopranos and Dexter.
I'll also throw in the Andy Griffith Show, the Munsters and All in the Family.
