Line 7:
* ''[[Charlie's Angels]]'' started as a T.V. Movie with a different opening, as well as different bumpers showing the three Angels standing side by side.
* ''[[The Flying Nun]]'' shows Sister Bertrille walking with her welcoming party back to the convent.
* ''[[M*A*S*H (television)|Mash]]'' starts with the title "Korea 1950 - 100 Years Ago" as Hawkeye and Trapper John play golf with "My Blue Heaven" playing in the background. Radar gets tossed a football and stops as he hears the choppers coming, which then leads into the standard opening.
* ''[[Remington Steele]]'' has Laura tell a slightly different story to since at this point she hasn't met the man who would take over Remington Steele's persona.
* ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series]]'' second pilot "Where No Man Has Gone Before" didn't have William Shatner's "Space, the final frontier" voiceover. This was 'corrected' for the HD remastered version of the episode.
Line 18:
* The opening credits for the reimagined ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined|Battlestar Galactica]]'' pilot begin with music by Richard Gibbs. The second episode, "33", begins with the now-familiar Bear McCreary theme. It also has the quick cuts of upcoming scenes from the episode after the theme music.
* The pilot episode of ''[[The X-Files]]'' has no title or end credits and is the only X-Files episode (including the two movies) not to include the iconic theme song. The episode opens with a title card stating that the plot is based on real events and that's all.
* The pilot of ''[[Seinfeld]]'' originally had a very different tune than later episodes and the rest of the series. The pilot was rescored a few weeks later and resindicated. The pilot in its original form is no longer aired.
* ''[[Trapper John MD]]'' opened with a title sequence in the font of ''[[The Greatest American Hero]]'' style type and Pernell Roberts dreaming via clips of ''[[M*A*S*H (television)|Mash]]''
* ''[[South Park]]'''s unaired pilot had [[Primus|Les Claypool]] walking across town as he sings a slow-tempo version of the theme song (in fact, the version played during the credits of almost every episode), with the boys popping up from the bottom of the screen long enough to sing their verses. The aired version is the same as the Season 1 opening, but the instrumentation of the music has inferior quality -- this version is replaced with the more standard version a few episodes in.
* The first episode of the 1990s ''[[Iron Man]]'' animated series lacked the green wire bits in the beginning seen in the other episodes of the first season.
