Fast Forwarding or Watching?

I am impatient so I will fast forward thru the opening but there are a few shows that my kids will get so mad at me if I fast forward thru the songs. My youngest son just loves music so much.

Mmm...well I'm a bit guilty there at fast forwarding...not so much the opening of a taped or DVD show or movie, but I fast forward the "commercials" for coming attractions of DVDs that are to come out by the same production company..Disney movies are kind of famous for this and show about five theatre trailers of upcoming movies...yikes just so many times one can watch that...hehe

No I like to Watch from the Begining till the End Credits until I know the Movie or
Show well enough. I like to look for certains Things I Missed before.

For shows I record off air on my DVD recorder,and especially favourite shows,I'd pretty much watch all of it,though there's usually maybe a minute or so of ads before the show actually starts which I'll happily ffwd through,and the "Chapter step" usually cuts out the 3 minute or so Ad breaks quite neatly! With Pre-recorded Movies,depending on the trailers,if they're movies I like or might consider viewing at another time,I may watch the first time I get the disc,but on subsequent viewings it's straight to the "menu" option and the "play movie" graphic!

I always listen to the opening of The Sopranos as well, Anhedonia. I really like the music.

I also listen to the opening of Sanford and Son, Gilligan's Island, The Beverly Hillbillies, Gomer Pyle: USMC, Green Acres, and Corner Gas.

I DO NOT like the opening to Monk, and always make it a point to skip it.

When I used to watch TV, I would never miss the opening of Friends, The Facts of Life, Happy Days, and The Jeffersons. I liked any show that had a catchy tune. I am sure there are many more, but I can't think of them now. I'll be back if I remember.

Hey I adore that opening song of the sopranos, in fact the sound track over all is a killer. I like The L word lead in also, great music. rotflmao you might find this funny but the sit com The Nanny, is also so funny I watch reruns and never get tired of the opening.

I fast-forward through opening CREDITS (when the DVDs that I rent allow it). Some will not.

I also have Comcast's "On Demand" feature which permits me to FF to the "meat" of the programs. Life's too short to watch things that have no meaning to me ... and I HONESTLY don't care about who produced a film or who designed the costumes, along with lots of other credits ... which are often so small they can't be read anyway.

I always watch the openings and closing the the shows that I like to watch (or I did when I owned a TV set), but I did fast forward through the commercials. I can't stand advrtizements. I don't need someone out there trying to talk me into buying something I really don't need.

Hello Anhedonia!:-)

Though I am not aware of the specific show that you have written about, but oftentimes, I do watch from the start just to have the 'feel' of the show and to get into right mood.
