Battlestar Galactica, Haven, Fringe, Orphan Black,
and there are a few more I don't skip more often than I do, like DS9, Stargate: Atlantis, Rome and the Tudors.
Some series just have really nice intros!

The expanse. The music paired either the visuals is :chefkiss:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 series)
This thread needs more Stargate, those intros are basically a montage of the most epic scenes from previous seasons
I loved The Good Fight opening sequence as it's pretty cool and they were changing and updating it often - https://youtu.be/5xWE5R6qEQQ
Human Target until they messed up the intro (and everything else) with the disastrous season 2.
The music and art were top-tier and set me up for adventure.
For those who haven't seen it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_xFMyhBYx8.
I think this might be the first time I've seen Human Target mentioned online. Loved that show
What we do in the shadows.
Farscape. The music is unlike anything I've heard before. I bought the soundtrack based on that one piece of music, but everything else on it is disappointingly normal.
Farscape - just love the music.
Babylon 5 season 3. Same reason. Why did they use this music only in the intro of season 3 is beyond me. (Although they used it in outro in season 4). The rest of the seasons they have very cheesy music in the intro.
Basically any HBO show, they are always pretty iconic. Special shoutout to The Wire
Malcolm in the Middle. Haven’t seen it in years, but I never skipped the theme song.
Gravity Falls.
MST3K
Twilight Zone (1959–1964)
Firefly
Venture Bros.
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Maria Holic / Maria Holic: Alive
Too many to list: Buffy, Brooklyn 99, Firefly, Stargate SG1...
It's an anime, and nearly cheating but for me it was Mushoku Tensei Season 1
There was an intro song, but while it was playing there would be B Rolls of whatever part of the setting was pertinent for the episode.
It was awesome, but then they did a normal intro for Season 2, which struck me as a bad decision.
Bojack Horseman
Mashle
Brooklyn 99
BLING BANG BANG BORN is a BOP.
I have to skip the intro for B99 sometimes cause it's crazy loud.
And you have to do some kind of hand dance.
Trailer park boys. The only peaceful moment in any episode is the opening.
They nailed the "crazy shit right before the mild intro creating humorous juxtaposition" gag years before Sunny did it.
So true. I used to play a YouTube loop of this every now and then.
I don't skip intros. It sets the tone for what is about to come.
Most if not all shows. The intro was made by passionate musicians, animators, editors, and other creative people who work on my favorite shows. It's part of the presentation and the vibe of the program. It's like skipping the opening scene. But to answer your question more directly, I watch every single last second of any Trek intro.
