Werewolf
One of the four series Fox launched its network with, and the first weekly werewolf on American television.
Werewolf opens with a main title sequence of 25 seconds.
At 25 seconds, it opens well under the 50-second median for horror sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on Fox in 1987, when Married... with Children, 21 Jump Street and The Tracey Ullman Show were also on the network.
