Members Contessa Donatella Posted February 21 Members Share Posted February 21 Right off the bat I said she'd better out-matriarch Stephanie Forrester. This was on a BTG IG. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted February 21 Members Share Posted February 21 I didn't dislike the Generations theme or opening, but the self-importance of all the historical pictures was a bit much lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted February 21 Members Share Posted February 21 I admit I like that music in the Generations open, but I think it really misses the mark in not highlighting the cast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted February 21 Members Share Posted February 21 (edited) It just feels vaguely anthropological, like why are we seeing white kids at a diner and then all these civil rights landmark moments only to cut to a show about Kelly Rutherford trying to cheat her way to a college diploma with some sub-Saved by the Bell muzak cues, or Barbara Rhoades woodenly delivering every line about her doomed soap career? The opening infuses the show with a sense of historic importance (which the show did have at that time by nature of its makeup) whereas the content and quality of the stories, uh, not so much, at least at first. (The stuff from later on in the show's run is much better.) Edited February 21 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 21 Members Share Posted February 21 (edited) I've said this before in the GENERATIONS thread, but what that show needed was something more contemporary (none of that ragtime [!@#$%^&*]!), with glammed-up shots of cast members in and around the city (yes, like on B&B, lol). That's what I love about the BTG opening: no one's giving a history lesson on Negroes in the Americas. It's just black (and non-black) people posing and looking fabulous. The way it should be.

Members Sapounopera Posted February 21 Members Share Posted February 21 I like the first few and the last few seconds of the intro. A part of me wishes that the first few seconds was the intro lol. Never cared for actor names in soap openings. Reminds me of primetime soaps and I see daytime shows as a different experience. At least the font was classy. The people from Y&R should check it out. I liked the idea of the faces behind the gates. Everyone looked amazing. Some of the ladies images remind me of reality show intros. Something like Real Housewives. I expected something more interesting. Didn't hate it, but I wanted something else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
