This was a pretty clever parody of the intro to Law and Order:

If you watch them together, you can see the close attention to details down to the style of the music. But the trouble is my scoring factors simply arent designed for an intro of this type. Every intro is supposed to be scored on its own individual merit, without considering the actual show, let alone an entirely different show. And what this intro fails to tell me is what the show is actually about (aside from perhaps the genre).

All of which is to explain why this intro, no matter how clever a parody it might be, didnt score all that well. Without context, this is a series of disconnected images without a coherent story. The intro doesnt give me any insight into the characters personalities or even the premise of the show. And its not presented in a particularly novel manner (which makes sense given that its presentation is literally taken from another intro).

As for my personal score, I appreciate what they were going for with this sequence, but its not resonating much with me because I havent actually watched Community (which I probably should at some point because Ive only ever heard good things).
