Private Practice
The first Grey's Anatomy spin-off, following Addison Montgomery to Los Angeles.
One opening sequence is catalogued for Private Practice, covering season 1.
It arrived on ABC in 2007, when One Life to Live, All My Children and Schoolhouse Rock! were also on the network.
The opening titles
Season 1
No usable clip verified. The only result is credited to its uploader as their own work rather than the broadcast sequence.
More drama opening titles from the 2000s
1 sequenceBreaking Bad
Twenty seconds of chemistry-set smoke and floating element symbols. Almost aggressively short, which leaves the cold open to do the work.
- Seasons 1–5
1 sequenceGrey's Anatomy
Twenty-six seconds of surgical instruments and a guitar figure, from a series that has now outlived most of the shows that copied it.
- Season 1
1 sequenceMad Men
A silhouetted adman falls past skyscrapers built out of his own advertising — smiling wives, stockinged legs, a hand holding a drink — and then, at the bottom, is sitting comfortably with a cigarette. Nobody lands. That is the joke and the thesis.
- Seasons 1–7
1 sequenceGilmore Girls
Carole King's 'Where You Lead' rewritten as a mother-and-daughter duet, over a small Connecticut town in every season at once.
- Season 1
2 sequencesHouse
Anatomical illustration and MRI imagery over Massive Attack's 'Teardrop' — a diagnostic show that opens by looking inside a body rather than at one.
- Season 8
- Season 1
1 sequenceDesperate Housewives
Art history restaged as domestic comedy — Cranach's Eve, Egyptian tomb painting, American Gothic — each one collapsing under a woman's exasperation.
