The thing is, I get why opening credit sequences have fallen out of fashion. They were a holdover from the broadcast television era where they served a legitimate purpose, but they are completely unnecessary in an online, on-demand viewing environment. It actually annoys me now to have to sit through a title sequence of any kind, whether it be in a television show or a video game (I am one of those people who will edit a game's config files to get rid of them).
- laumars 9y agoOpening sequences weren't required for the old broadcaster either as the had a special pre-show clock that would count down on the tape before the start. I'm fact You sometimes saw this on TV. Moreover, some older shows didn't have opening credits and a great many that did, often only did so after an acted prelude
- bitwize 9y agoYeah, just like I totally get why today's computer and video displays are all LCDs. I still get wistful and sad when I hear someone dimly recall "those TVs with the big things on the back".
