I mean, I get it. For bingewatching to be effective such option must exist. But I just can’t imagine to skip Star Trek intros. It’s part of the anticipation, the joy, the ritual. What about you? Do you skip intros?
never skip the ds9 intro; i’m too busy crying and grandly humming along.
Only Enterprise lol
When streaming I do because I’m binging, but regardless of how I’m watching I will NEVER skip TNG intros. My god what a masterpiece, even the end credits are just a capstone to perfection.
Yes. Almost every time.
Usually, but I love the optimistic fanfare of the TNG intro, and it has a habit of drawing me in.
I was just complaining that ds9 has a 90+ second intro… it’s just too much
Yes I actually think DS9 has the best intro overall… but it is also the one I skip most often for the reason you give.
ya know, youre absolutely right. when im in the mood it is absolutely beautiful.
I just love when the station appears on screen so small, alone in deep space with the lone french horn playing… then suddenly it flashes up close! And we see a flurry of activity! It reminds me of a whale fall or some other deep sea island of life.
It’s a snooze-fest! Slow panning shots for 75 seconds until the wormhole opens briefly. Low-tempo, gentle music. You ride a slow moving elevator to arrive at the show’s content matter.
I laughed so much when they lampshaded that in Lower Decks
Ransom: “Just keep circling.”
even when binging I watch the voyager intro every few episodes, I love the music too much
The intro music is the best part of VOY.
TNG’s music is engraved on my soul tho.
Never, same applies to The Expanse
The Expense’s intro is in it’s own league
TOS always, the others it depends.
Rarely. A good intro gives me a moment to set aside real-life worries and get into the right mindset to enjoy the show. TNG, DS9, VOY, and SNW are all bangers.
Yeah, I actually MISS intros on shows that don’t have them. I forget when in the 2000’s or 2010’s they started that, but it aggravated me almost as much as the cutback from 20+ episodes a season to fewer.
If it’s Enterprise? Definitely. Or I mute it.
Yes, unless I haven’t watched in a while.
I will watch the intro once.
For binge-watching yes. If I’m in the mood and it’s the one off occasion that I’m re-watching some old episode (or the newest one of the week), then of course not 😅
