I had to vote unsolved mysteries.

[fatbastard]

You forgot tales from the dark side.

[JClemy]

I figured xfiles cause I remember it the best. I remember unsolved mysteries scared the shit out of me when I was like 6

[MissingPerson]

Outer Limits's opener kicked ass, X Files had the best theme tune, but Twilight Zone was definitely the most awesome show.

[gaypalmsprings]

I voted the Outer Limits (the original, not the newer version).

There is nothing wrong with your television set.
Do not attempt to adjust the picture.
We are controlling transmission.
We will control the horizontal.
We will control the vertical.
We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity.
For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear.
You are about to participate in a great adventure.
You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... The Outer Limits.

The Outer Limits opening always made me shit my pants. It didn't help that it only came on at midnight where I live.

[C DUB YA]

In Search of with Leonard Nimoy has the best opening.

Ahh, and the truth has been spoken. I agree completely. Well, as long as your talking original Twilight Zone and not that new shit that popped up for a while.

[Astrid]

i voted unsolved mysteries, because its one of my favorite shows ever.

but twilight zone is so epic. undeniably epic.

[instinct]

wow.. so many epic intros in this thread.. i voted Twilight Zone.. It was probably my favorite show out of all of those too..

LoL.. The Tales from the Crypt and Are you Afraid of the Dark brought up a ton of memories.. Crazy.

And opening sequences to actual shows, not just opening titles, Lost Season 2 Episode 1 was great.

I don't know how I forgot that, CLASSIC!

[Tat-the-Cat]

The best opening sequences surfaced prior to the 1980's.

Here are my favorites:
1) Hawaii-Five-O
2) Danger Island
3) Barnaby Jones
4) Emergency
5) Daktari
7) Mission Impossible

The orchestrated music, modern design and aesthetics all trump the crap from the 80's and beyond.

[fikus222]

I am actually in the process of re-watching all of the X-Files seasons. My wife has never seen them altogether.

The music is cool during the opening sequence but the visuals get old, chapter advance fixes that ;)

[BlackSwan]

X-files. That redhead detective was smoking hot

you mean Scully.

[chairmenmeow47]

Twilight Zone was definitely the most awesome show.

bears repeating.

i've always wanted an animated gif avatar of the spiral at the beginning of one of the seasons. that show rules everything else.

Something that I have noticed recently, every female guest star on X-Files has some variety of red hair.
