Q

The letter Q accounts for 13 of the 2,618 shows here, with 14 opening title sequences from 1959 to the present.

Four of them are filed here rather than under their first word, because an index ignores a leading "The" or "A" — The Queen's Gambit, A Question of Sport and The Quick Draw McGraw Show among them.

One rebuilt its opening titles mid-run: Quantum Leap, with two sequences.
