      Know where can I find a breakdown of the symbolism behind the intro?
      For me, it's hard to watch. I feel like I got bungeed down into the deepest depths of the bottomless Uncanny Valley, coming back up covered in oily black ooze, but I look down at its just my hands, my clothes, my normal skin. I think I'd appreciate it more if I knew what and why what was going on.

      Not a breakdown of the whole intro exactly, but this breaks down the melody musically and makes some comments about how it relates symbolically.

                Yes! It sets the tone for the show so perfectly. Just to satisfy my curiosity, I pulled up the first episode on Hulu... the new music gives a completely different tone. It's terrible!

                      I didn't like the show all that much but American Gods had possibly the greatest title sequence ever made.

                      It's a brilliant fever dream mixing mythology and technology which perfectly fits the theme of the show. That thumping music suits the neon I'm the titles and that tired groan at the end puts an exclamation point in the whole thing.

                        It’s so short that you might as well sit through it.

                          Even when I'm knowingly watching another HBO show, I always hope that the Sopranos theme comes up after the HBO static

                              [grin] I get that!

                              I'm sure that there are others I used to like - I'm an old fart - but this is the only one that occurs to me now.

                              For some reason, my long term memory stopped in the late nineties. I'm convinced that there are series I've watched that I loved that it's going to take a replay to remember that I loved the incoming theme.

                              There were several cult shows on BBC2 and ITV back then: Thirty-Something, a few about UK barristers, Moving Story. Damned if I can remember any of the theme tunes.

                                        Flikken Maastricht. Not because it’s so good but we always try to match the drum beats in the intro
