Got reminded of this by Wolf of Wall Street. Y'know, the bit that shows the Equaliser theme. The UFO theme is a full decade out but I think its overabundance of awesome covers for that.
Also, this is the closest a theme without words can get to tickling my tear-ducts with pure nostalgic half forgotten almost buried Christmas memories joy:
You can generally guarantee with any HBO show that it'll be 4-5 mins before you see anything new in an episode.
I got so bored when watching a few episodes of Boardwalk back to back I timed it, and with the "previously, on" and the titles it was always 5 mins before you hit any new action.
Wonder how much the budget for each episode would go up if those 5 mins were also filled with new scenes each week?
To be fair you get an extra 15 minutes on HBO than any other channel (expect BBC but fuck that).
Previously on always annoys me but a good intro is fine, especially GoT which changes often but slightly.
