Duck Tales.

I quit Brownies as a wee kid because it ran into Duck Tales and I always missed the theme song, and it was my favourite part of it.

Simpsons theme is way too nostalgic for me to dislike but the full-length intro really feels like it goes on forever when it's played before an episode.

The amount of named characters that appear in the background, the fact it has actual jokes, and the overall detail still feels impressive though.

It's that long because every episode has to be a certain length and they use it as a filler if necessary. That's why sometimes it's the whole length and sometimes only couch.

I don't understand why the Japanese always have to do such long-ass intros with full songs and shit.

Don't get me wrong, it was pretty cool, but while I hate how short American intros are, I wish there could be some happy medium.

Like, 30 seconds. 45 seconds max.

Pup gets a pass, too, because of the Red Herring gag. All other iterations suck. Including the original which I realize is ironic as if it wasn't for it, Mystery Inc. wouldn't exist.
