22. I really miss opening credits actually, there are so many iconic ones that instantly bring to mind a particular show that you loved, and a title card isn’t the same really. Saying that, I do like the option on Netflix to skip the opening credits as it’s not necessarily something that you want to sit through every time when you’re binge-watching a series, but imo it’s still nice to have proper opening credits to associate with a show. It sounds kind of silly, but I also used to like the old style of each actor appearing in the credits in order of importance and seeing all the clips associated with them, it’s just not the same when there’s only a list of written credits running over the screen instead


34. And I guess that any show that I’m a big fan of it would be cool to get a peak behind the scenes, so I would probably say Farscape or Buffy


38. And that’s hard to narrow down when there are so many little changes you’d like to make with different shows! I guess if I picked some shows at random lol, I would say that with Gossip Girl I would have changed the writing of Dan as Gossip Girl so that it was something the writers had in mind from the beginning. I don’t hate the idea of him being GG, but it would have been nice if the logic had tracked more, instead of it being obvious that they pulled it out as a twist at the last moment. For X-Files I would have changed the cliffhanger ending, and I would have given Mulder and Scully a more satisfying wrap-up with them as a definite couple and properly reunited with William. Even if it would probably still have a tragic ending, I would at least wrap it all up properly and not just have Scully dismiss William as her son all together. And with Buffy I would have replaced the attempted rape with a scene of Spike trying to bite and turn Buffy instead
