Skipping through opening/end credits, I consider that a form of disrespect towards the makers (only with the good stuff, of course); so, yes, I still watch 'em -- especially now that I can hear that golden Firefly tune in DTS Master Audio on the Blu-Ray set.

I not only watch them every single time, I also sing along.

Yes, this. Those words are too powerful to skip past, and Sonny Rhodes' rendition is just so moving! I got into a bit of a spat with a relative recently who said the Ballad of Serenity was cheesy...

Meh, I figure....why bother ffwd'ing them?
The song style gives a good feel to the show, and they're short enough that it's not a big deal to sit through 'em.
I got my wife into the show. She aboslutely loves it. But she can't stand the song. So that's another reason to make sure it plays in its entirety every time.
;p

I always let the intro play. And sometimes sing along.

Though, admittedly, there are times when I'm in a time crunch and want to squeeze in one more episode before turning off the TV. In those cases, I'll cruise past the opening song. But I always hate to do it.

I still watch them after after the many, many (too numerous to count) times that I've seen them because I still like them.

How can you sing the theme properly without the music? That's crazy talk.

of course we still watch the opening credits...
