House of Anubis
2011–2013NickelodeonDrama
An English boarding school with an Egyptian secret underneath it, remade by Nickelodeon from a Dutch and Belgian original.
House of Anubis rebuilt its titles: two distinct opening sequences are catalogued here across seasons 1–2, each running 30 seconds.
At 30 seconds at its longest, it opens well under the 50-second median for drama sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on Nickelodeon in 2011, when Dora the Explorer, The Fairly OddParents and Fanboy & Chum Chum were also on the network.
Only 139 of the 2,618 shows catalogued here changed their titles at all; House of Anubis did so once.
All 2 opening title sequences
Season 1
30sThe first season's, cast in grey cardigans against teal wallpaper.
Season 2
30sThe second season's, restaged in blazers. A season 3 copy exists but could not be told apart from this one on a single frame, so it is not filed separately.

Euphoria
No opening sequence as such. Each episode runs a cold open, often one character's history told in narration, and only then cuts to the title card.

The Boys
Superhero iconography rendered as corporate branding and then defaced — the show's whole argument, done in graphics.

The Night Manager
Le Carré's arms dealer and the hotelier sent in after him, opened by weapons assembling out of luxury.

Game of Thrones
A map that rebuilds itself each week. The clockwork cities shown change with the locations the episode visits, which makes it the rare title sequence carrying actual information.

Yellowstone
Montana filmed as a land claim — cattle, mountains and fence line, with the ranch's brand doing the title card.

The Witcher
No sequence in the usual sense. Each episode opens on its own sigil, drawn together out of liquid silver and shards over black, with the theme beneath it.
