    The opening for the original Fullmetal Alchemist anime (Ready Steady Go by L’Arc-En-Ciel) is burned into my mind forever. For some reason it makes me cry a little bit now.

    I have a few:

    • Babylon 5 : The opening monologue and music score was amazing every time. Definitely an older vibe with this one with flashing images of the cast up as it progressed, but it was very good.
    • Westworld Season 1 : I think it was mainly the same for later seasons with slight variations. The simple piano tune building for the whole intro was beautiful and while watching back to back would absolutely let it run maybe every other episode, or every third.
    • Eureka Season 1 : The score by Mothersbaugh and quirky art is really fun and conveys the definite style of the show.

    From my childhood and adolescence: a lesser-known show called The Mysterious Cities of Gold, Fresh Prince, X-Files

    Anime choices: Cowboy Bebop, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Hellsing

    21st century: Sopranos, Game of Thrones (I almost didn’t want to, but the music never let us down)

        I can still recite most of the Cities of Gold opening almost 40 years later. For whatever reason, I really fixated on the outfits of some of the characters and the show may have partially contributed to my interest in textiles and textile-adjacent things. l may or may not made myself a Zia paper doll so I could design many dresses for her (which all included quipu made out of embroidery floss…).

      The song is kinda meh, but in the anime category I gotta give a shoutout to Konosuba S2 OP for being an entire perfect mini-episode in itself

      I absolutely love The Expanse intro – I always let it play for the incredible song and started to notice all the changing visuals to match the progression in the show as a result.

      DuckTales is one of those opening songs that I sing along with because I know the lyrics. The Expanse is one of those opening songs that I sing along with despite not knowing any of the lyrics at all.

          The only lyrics I remember are his name in the chorus but it’s definitely stuck with me. Also he’s a space explorer! With that, Bucky O’Hare kind of bridges the gap between The Expanse and DuckTales in a way.

    As soon as I read this threds title, The Office (US)'s theme started playing in my head, so I guess that.

    When you walk through the garden

    You gotta watch your back

    Well, I beg your pardon

    Walk the straight and narrow track
