Industry
Twenty-two seconds of type and glass. A trading-floor show whose opening is over before you have settled, which is roughly how the job is depicted.
Industry opens with a main title sequence of 22 seconds.
At 22 seconds, it opens well under the 50-second median for drama sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on HBO in 2020, when Curb Your Enthusiasm, In Treatment and The Jinx were also on the network.

Bridgerton
Engraved invitations, wax seals and bees, assembled like a society page being typeset — the gossip sheet that drives the plot, doing the credits.

West Texas oil patch, filmed with the same proprietorial eye Yellowstone brings to Montana.

House of the Dragon
The parent show mapped a continent; this one traces a bloodline. Where Game of Thrones built cities, these titles follow blood running through stone channels and a tapestry recording who killed whom.

Slow Horses
London surveillance imagery over a theme Mick Jagger wrote for the show — a spy series whose titles are as shabby and unglamorous as its office.

Beef
A different David Choe painting behind the title card of every episode, so the opening is a gallery hung one canvas at a time across the season.

The White Lotus
Colonial wallpaper that will not behave — painted paradise curdling into something predatory while the resort's guests are nowhere in it. Rebuilt from scratch for each new location, with a new theme every time.
