The whole reason I am making this topic is because this season of "Hells Kitchen" has the worst I ever seen. What do you think?

Apparently they do shit like this every intro every season but it still seems like this season is uber corny.
The Newsroom. Enjoyable series so far, but hate the intro. It just sucks the life out of the opening act.

It's not a spoiler if it's part of the show.

I agree totally. Great show, but the intro is trying to be too much like the intro to The West Wing.

To me, this was really bad. I just found both the song and the video to be incredibly cheesy.
It doesn't really say "You're about to watch a wrestling show".

I hated the intro to Battlestar Galactica (2003 reboot), the music didn't match the tone of the images, and they spoil the whole episode with a clip show of all the action about to take place. Still love the series though.
Each to his own I guess cause I loved the Battlestar intro. I thought it got across the message of everything being a lost cause really well. I'll somewhat agree with the bit at the end though with the clips over the drums, that did annoy me at first but I got used to it after a while.

Weren't the use of the clips at the beginning of an episode some form of homage to Space 1999, which also did the same thing?
Though, I don't know why Ronald Moore and the gang would want to provide a homage to Space 1999. Decent show (for its time) but nothing spectacular.

Actually, it was a Gerry Anderson trademark: Thunderbirds, etc; all did that as well.

Cooks make horrible actors, apparently. Looks like a bad Peter Gabriel video.

I'll go ahead and say it. While it was nice that it was so short to allow more time for the episode and I couldn't really imagine any other intro replacing it (including the millions of spoofs on youtube), Lost had a pretty crappy intro.

I actually really love it as a songs. I mean it had that 80s theme show vibe in away where it wouldn't work today but I think it's clever and funny.
The Newsroom. Enjoyable series so far, but hate the intro. It just sucks the life out of the opening act.
I also agree with this, the intro brings back all these high energy moments to get your adrenaline going...then the intro. To jump back from that is a struggle.
I only recently started watching Sons of Anarchy but I do not like the intro for that. I just think it's boring and doesn't get me excited. Where with a show like The Shield that fucking intro gets you fucking ready for that show.
