Ahsoka 1986

This opening sequence for the Star Wars TV series Ahsoka seems familiar. A real Gen X TV viewer will instantly recognize it as The A-Team. Explaining the cast of characters used to be a thing for TV show intros, which helped set people up for the show, even if they'd never seen it before. If you recall, The Six Million Dollar Man had a three-minute origin story for every episode! That time now goes to ads. Some commenters say this video from Auralnauts makes it clear what is happening in Ahsoka for the first time to them, and the show has already completed its eight-episode first season. This opening scene will set you up for nostalgia, even though the only thing nostalgic about it is the style. (via Laughing Squid)
