Favorites:

  • Veronica Mars (just the perfect match for the show's vibe and a damn catchy song)
  • Fringe (loved how they used it later in the series to match the universe/time period the episode was set in)
  • True Blood (a classic, wish the show matched its atmosphere beyond season 1)
  • Jessica Jones (so underrated)
  • Severance (extremely creative and memorable)
  • Stranger things (hate the show, but the intro is undeniably brilliant in its simplicity)

Honorable mentions:

  • Yellowjackets (fun!)
  • Dexter (love the concept, hate the song)
  • The 100 (after a basic title card in season 1 they actually added an intro for the rest of the show, with the content changing to match the theme and setting of each season)

I can't really think if any "worst" ones although in general I don't like when shows only do static or just very low-effort title cards. Some examples that come to mind are Breaking Bad and The Boys.
