All of them. I don't skip intros and I've never understood why anyone does.
If I'm watching another episode immediately, I don't want the intro again so I'll skip that.

Most if not all shows. The intro was made by passionate musicians, animators, editors, and other creative people who work on my favorite shows. It's part of the presentation and the vibe of the program. It's like skipping the opening scene. But to answer your question more directly, I watch every single last second of any Trek intro.
Even.. you know.. that Trek intro...?
Big mouth, has a great opening song "Changes" by Charles Bradley
The Wire
The Equalizer.
The OG one from way back when.
For me its Amazons Wheel of Time series. Seeing the threads get woven into the images of the world and then all coming together to be spun by the great wheel gets me emotional. They could bomb the remaining seasons and I would still be grateful for the opening.
Thanks to those beautiful souls actually linking the intros in this thread so we can watch them lol
Not mentioned yet: Lie to Me intro. Love how they show little twitches and movements and close it with open emotions.
Adventure time, the song is a banger and the whole thing lasts like 15 seconds.
Grimm. In the first few seasons they had very very short intros with little hints of what the story would be in it.
Inside Job. The original song the intro samples isn't that great. But the intro to the show has an amazing beat that I wish went on for longer then it does.
- Sons of Anarchy
- Bosch/Bosch:Legacy
- Alias
The rest I was going to suggest have been mentioned already!
Supernatural and Peacemaker
I didn't see anyone else mention this: Mob Psycho 100. Every one of those intros are bangers.
Franklin. Whenever I watch that guilty pleasure cartoon, I will absolutely refuse to skip the intro no matter how many episodes I'm watching.
I don't skip any of them. They're so short nowadays, anyway. If I'm impatient enough to skip the opening, then I'm probably not that into it and shouldn't be watching the show anyway.
Anyway, Law & Order, lol
All of them. Why would I skip an intro? Intros are cool, and, rarely, they might change, possibly for in-show reasons. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is famous for doing this, and even some American shows have taken after it in that regard.
Oh, I never skip intros. I also don't usually watch multiple episodes in a row though, so maybe that's why.
