Little Fires Everywhere
Two mothers in a planned Ohio suburb, and the house that is already burning down in the first scene.
Little Fires Everywhere opens with a main title sequence of 70 seconds.
At 70 seconds, it opens well above the 50-second median for drama sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on Hulu in 2020, when The Handmaid's Tale, The Orville and Future Man were also on the network.

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.

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.

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.
