10 Iconic TV Show Opening Credits You Will NEVER Skip
8. Stranger Things
Out of all the opening credits included on this list, Stranger Things is the shortest and most simplistic of all. Unlike the others, there’s no montage of the show’s current events, no dynamic or exciting graphics, nor any lyrics to sing along to.
But that’s what works about the intro. Instead a flashy, overwhelming number, we are given a grand sample of orchestration against the movement of letters coming together to literally spell out the title of the show. It feels reminiscent of the 1980s era, which is what the sci-fi series is greatly inspired from, and just the little details, such as the font and colours, look epic.
Stranger Things is one of the most universally loved Netflix shows of all time for its gripping, mysterious drama. Each episode is always an advancement on the storyline as well as an unravelling of new plot twists.
The sharp theme song fits perfectly because it stimulates a feeling of mystery and sets up each new chapter of the story nicely.
