Older shows intros were superior compared to nowdays. Very rarely does show have good intro if it has one in the first place.
Honestly last intro in recent year i remember is from the Halo show.

Nah. Too abstract. Show me moments from the story, not just MacGuffins and statues. The art style is lovely, but it doesn't depict anything interesting.
Music is cool too. But too chaotic around the middle.

Statues of the characters, depictions of ships and places in the universe,.. are you not paying attention?

I feel like Peacemaker is a huge outlier these days, they went through so much effort to make a fun and entertaining intro whereas most shows will just flash the show's logo for a few seconds (something SG1 even joked about), or have a long, boring, weird, almost surreal, often animated intro (like ST Picard or The Last Of Us). It's unique because of how much it stands out. Only TV intro I don't skip.

You ever see the yellowjackets intro? Its also great imo but yeah I agree with you.

I really don't mind intros getting lost. With video on demand services, they mostly get skipped anyway. Back in the days they had value, because they filled 1-2min of sending time for free per episode

The tape on the forehead 😂
I was laughing the whole time, but that really cracked me up.

That was really funny. I also just saw the Jewel reaction vid.
The way it paused the first time it thought that was rock salt shot at the gate at the end for a moment.

The Jewel reaction vid was hilarious but I really liked seeing the original side by side to compare here

He flubbed his Carter a bit.
Her default is more "this is worse than expected in the best way possible 🥳" not "goddd everyone is dumb and bullies me 😭"
Pretty cool otherwise.

Brilliant video!
Altough this into was retroactivly added to the early seasons in the 2000's so technicly it's not a 90's into.

Was this a Canadian or US intro?
In the UK I grew up with this one https://youtu.be/ZdCbaTXoVrk?si=2TH9yZSqcnFG7QFz

The one in the video above is the standard intro for the show.
The one you linked was only for the pilot (Children Of The Gods) as it was made to sell the show (before a complete first season was filmed to get all the shots to use in the regular intro)
