Members SFK Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 What are yours? Some of mine: (also loved the two alternating shots of her in the "signature" credits ca. 2002) -Adam and Stuart in the double frame from "Falling Pictures" (actually, I loved the whole frame sequence before the pictures started falling) (all of the variations of Joan's shot in the credits were great, but this one is perhaps the most iconic) -Roger (Michael Zaslow) in his tux in GL's Hold on to Love opening -From the same opening, the final shot of Harley (Beth Ehlers) doing her sexy bop across the dance floor (I also liked the shot of Marcy Walker as Tangie, sipping her champagne, that would later replace Beth's shot... interesting how they'd later be connected with the whole Liza Colby replacement debacle) -Lauren (Tracey E. Bregman) in the pewter dress in the old B&B opening * * * * * I'll stop here for now so I don't end up stealing everybody else's. Pics, gifs, and time specific links are great, but not at all necessary as we'll know exactly what you're talking about.

Members alexisfan07 Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 Someone that loves credits as much as I do? Is it possible? DEFINITELY the Erica Kane shots in the Scrapbook Opening. That entire opening was magical, everyone's shot was fantastic. Maria's with her pushing her hair out of her face was a standout. I'd have to go through them to pick out my favorites but all the AMC openings 2003-2012 had some amazing shots (not including the cheap ass one at the end).

Members Mr. Vixen Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 GH's new opening is my favorite of all time. It's sleek, innovative, and masterfully put together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 I like the concept, I just hate how short the character shots are. They could cut the buildings or logo short a bit and make it a tad longer on each shot so we can actually see who's in them. Like the Spinelli-Tracy-Alexis-Kristina one...my eyes go to the center and by the time I can think to move them out to the ends, the shot is gone. I just got super sad about AMC being gone My favorite opening song and visuals of all times, Scrapbook and Family Album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 I was totally [!@#$%^&*] with you, that opening is a piece of fucked up garbage. A disgrace to the show that once had the brilliant FoTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 LMAO! This brings memories bc me and my cousins used to think our aunt was Erica Kane! Everytime that shot came on when we were kids we would scream her name. Never mind you she was black, but hey she was light skinned, short and had long hair and projected herself as the "sexy" one in the family. Surely you can see where the confusion would come in for 5-7 year olds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 LMAO I should've known. I really don't dislike it but clearly you can't beat FoTH. This is totally random but I remember when I realized how no one was looking directly at the camera and was extremely relieved cause it always pissed me off when I saw those few people that didn't (or at least the only few I perceived didn't) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 Exactly what came to my mind first. Her shot is beautiful, especially when in motion. Love her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted November 7, 2012 Author Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 That is so cute! I used to think my grandma was in a RC Cola commercial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted November 8, 2012 Members Share Posted November 8, 2012 Oh how I love the Knots Landing shot that was in the credits for most of the early-to-mid-80s - it's a snippet of the exquisite segue where we go from Val, still dealing with losing Gary and moving on, sitting in her living room at sunset, to Abby, standing on the deck of her beach house, contemplating whether or not to donate a kidney to Diana. Susan Sullivan turning to the camera for all eternity is another favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted November 8, 2012 Author Members Share Posted November 8, 2012 -Danny (Michael Damian) rocking out in the old Y&R credits -I have enjoyed every opening credits shot Jess Walton did back in that era. Jess can throw angles and toss hair like no other. I adore this opening, and each and every cast shot is bizarre/hilarious in its own special way. They are really doing too much: Please register in order to view this content That is a beautiful shot of her, she has very nice bone structure. I don't often say this about women, but I think she's actually sexier blonde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted November 8, 2012 Members Share Posted November 8, 2012 I'm partial to Tucker and Esther's shots in Y&R's current opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
