| Topic | Jesse Ranks TV Show Intros - The Rankings |
| Jesse_Custer 06/29/20 11:10:45 AM #167: | 79. Survivor (season 1) - Xeybozn https://youtu.be/BAOzVGV-SBM Unique: 5 Story: 1.5 Music: 6.25 Animation: N/A Personal: 0.5 Average: 3.3125 While I actually liked this less than the intro for the only other reality show on the list, The Amazing Race, it ranks higher for a few reasons. Most notably, the theme song is quite good, with tribal drums and chanting that create a strong sense of atmosphere and prevent this from feeling like the intro for any reality show. As with so many other reality show intros, we see each of the contestants one by one, but we at least see them immersed in the environment of the show. And this intro got a bit more unusual than I was expecting near the end with that weird sequence including the close up of the guys eye. I wouldnt go so far as to call this an intro that breaks the reality TV mold, but some of the imagery and the theme song really helped set it apart. However, I dont see much of a story beyond a bunch of contestants struggling to survive in the wild. Some of the imagery helps to set the tone and create a sense of authenticity to the ordeal, but its mostly window dressing. --- I don't want to alarm you, but there may be a boogeyman or boogeymen in the house ...
