Miss the extended opening! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anyone remember the extended opening credits that were used on some episodes when NBC aired reruns in the daytime, and on a few episodes in syndication/lifetime? I miss seeing it! Wish it would have been included on some of the dvd episodes as a bonus, or on hallmark (although given the amount of editing done nowadays for commercials, that’s not likely to happen).

Yes, I always liked that version. It surprised me when it wasn't on the DVDs. I was thinking it was only used in the first episode but I may be wrong about that.

Oh yeah! I had forgotten about that, thanks for the reminder :-) I loved that too, it was always such a nice surprise to see that suddenly pop up in the Lifetime re-runs (whoa! It's the extended version!)

Yeah tlc38tlc38, it was definitely more than one episode. I remember it in several episodes, seemingly without rhyme or reason. That's what made it even more fun to watch on cable, never knowing when you might get that rare extended edition.

I hope someone has it on YouTube.

And tmac81s, I'm curious what your avatar is? Is it from a movie, or a TV show?

Ahh, thanks; I'd never heard of the show or the actor so I had no idea, lol.
