I mean, I get it. For bingewatching to be effective such option must exist. But I just can't imagine to skip Star Trek intros. It's part of the anticipation, the joy, the ritual. What about you? Do you skip intros?

TOS always, the others it depends.

Only so I don't have to turn down the volume, and turn it back up when the episode starts.

Ent and lower decks often get skipped, everything else occasionally.

Prodigy, never. That theme is up there with Voy and DS9.

I'll watch one when I sit down to watch, then I'll skip it on any further episodes in the same watch session.

Oh, where's that option in VLC? (I'd probably skip if given the choice, I remember wanting to constantly with game of thrones but whoever I was with insisted on watching the entire 5 hours every time)

Yeah, mostly, I mean why are they like 20 minutes long?! :D

Tho I don't always skip the outros.

Usually, no, especially with DS9 (Even that crappy spread-up version with the cheap drum track tacked on top used after season 4.)

However, as I was watching Prodigy on my desktop, my behavior varied. For a while, I watched the whole intro, but my anticipation became too much and I began skipping right through it as I got through season 2.
