Watch them every time. To skip them is to cut a tiny piece off of the show.

SKIP THEM???
I'm this far *holds fingers real close together* to making my own copy of "Serenity" with the opening credits inserted after the Operative asks where River's hiding!!!!

I do :P Now that you mention it though how come firefly has two opening intro movies? The one where we get the background narration and then the one with Firefly written across it. Is it because Fox showed them out of order or was it meant to be like that?

And a related question, why doesn't the DVD have the opening narration for each episode? ...Or, for any episode? I didn't even know what people were talking about until I lent my only DVD set to a relative and needed to Hulu an episode the other day to reference something. (Short answer: because that's not how Joss envisioned it. But I mean *besides that*!)

I usu watch the first one with opening but FF the others when I watch more than one at a time. Perhpas it's heresy but I never was one for strict protocol.

I skip past almost all credits of TV shows - the main character credits. But not FF. Sometimes I sing along, but most of the time my voices cracks too much to do so. I usually am riveted to the visuals as well.

Ooooh, that's a great idea!

I'm with everybody else: The mere thought of skipping the credits has not even begun to speculate about the possibility of crossing my mind!

I watch them. That's only cause it's inconvenient to skip them. There's no simple "skip the credits but not the show" button. They don't really annoy me but they don't add anything either. I consider them just dead time.

Sometimes I'll hit the mute button, because if the kids hear the Firefly theme they will get out of bed and come into our bedroom.

I still watch them, because it is part of the ritual. The music and especially the images help to usher in an episode. I don't really sing along, though I do find myself whispering along, "since I found Serenity," because I like the way the singer does it. And a black and white image transition b/t Sean and Ron in the background. It looks serene, and "I found serenity..."

It's just cool.
