Was listening to the awesome title sequence of His Dark Materials again today. It is one of those pieces of music that keep replaying in your mind even after you stop listening to it. I love listening to Intro sequence themes and there are some iconic ones among American TV shows. For a long time, Fringe and Arrow themes were my favorite and I used to play them on youtube whenever I wanted to relax, close my eyes and just listen to music. A few years back, I happened to see the title sequence of The Expanse on Youtube and I was like, I must see this series. It was only available on Syfy that time and when it came on Prime, I was super happy. I think that a great opening sequence is critical to the success of a show. Cannot imagine Game of Thrones without its legendary title sequence.

So, here is a list of title sequences of shows that I’ve seen and think are great.
