I mean, I get it. For bingewatching to be effective such option must exist. But I just can't imagine to skip Star Trek intros. It's part of the anticipation, the joy, the ritual. What about you? Do you skip intros?

Just Enterprise. Man I still hate that intro.
Really? But it’s been a long road gettin from there to here….
I love it.
It's absolutely NOT Star Trek, and whoever decided that it would match a series of Star Trek is a moron...but for a standard sci-fi show it's a good song choice.
I tried Enterprise back when it came out and I was out after a couple episides. I just couldn't do it
Oh, Enterprise is pretty poor. There were some solid ideas, but at the time it was just too big a departure from Star Trek for it to be taken seriously.
Now, if Enterprise were the lead-up to First Contact, the intro would make sense as it would be an early prequel to everything...
The end credits music was quite good if I remember right though.
The end credits song were originally suppose to be the intro song but was changed last minute.
[citation needed]
I've read the exact opposite, that they always wanted a pop song for the credits, but nearly waffled on it just before it aired.
I can understand not vibing with the song, but the montage and what it represents is peak Trek to me. I love it to death.
It's vile.
…bubbly and cloying and happy.
That song actually has three full verses, only the first is used for the intro credits
I'm thankful for that.
