Doug's assistant wasn't bad.

Why was the Jefferson's depressing. How can moving on up to a apartment in the sky be depressing? I guess he was still stuck with Weasie and her Mother.

‘Uncle’ definitely deserves kudos for the best musical arrangement. So Jerry Goldsmith. So mid 60s/spy/mod-a-go-go. And how could Leo G Carroll have gone from ‘Topper’ to ‘Uncle’ ?

Mine follows. The first one, well, 60 years later, it’s still making me laugh.

And this one...is just fucking iconic:

No baseball today. Only a week to go! So I thought I would start this thread to pass the time. Best opening to a TV show. What do you guys got?

I'm surpised nobody's actually named THE BEST opening to a show, since the thread is titled "Best Openings to a Show". Hands down is "BREAKING BAD".

Great one, if we're going recognizable, The Sopranos will always stand out to me
