The Morning Show
Broadcast graphics assembling and collapsing — the machinery of a network morning programme, shown as the thing that eats the people in front of it.
The Morning Show rebuilt its titles: two distinct opening sequences are catalogued here across seasons 1 and 3, running between 109 and 111 seconds.
At 111 seconds at its longest, it opens well above the 50-second median for drama sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on Apple TV+ in 2019, when Servant, Truth Be Told and See were also on the network.
Only 139 of the 2,618 shows catalogued here changed their titles at all; The Morning Show did so once.

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.
