The Best Television Show Opening.... Period

I'm posting this because believe it or not, many people today have never seen it.
But I'm sure some of you who have, will not protest too much. This is the extended version of the 1955 Mickey Mouse Club opening in color. In my opinion, I think that this is the best opening for a television show ever done, live action or animated. There's a lot of good opening segments for television shows like The Munsters, I Dream Of Jeannie, Bewitched, etc. I'd say the closest to the energy of this piece is one of the openings to The Drew Carey Show, but even then, Carey's title sequence had clips from the show cut into the opening.
MMC's opening was all NEW original footage.
Every weekday in 1955, this title sequence (in glorious Black and white) excited millions of kids, preparing them for the fun to follow.
The Mickey Mouse Club had lots of hooks to keep you watching the show, but this opening sequence shot in eye popping color with an instantly hummable theme by Mousekeleader Jimmie Dodd and fun animation (excuse the cheezy limited animation of Tortoise, Hare and Little Hiawatha heads in the middle of the piece) and Direction by Bill Justice, make this 3 minute title opener a supreme winner, hands down.
FYI, this version was seldom seen as much of the footage in the middle was cut out, making it a much tighter piece. However, I still prefer this extended opening.
It's a credit to Walt Disney for having the foresight to produce this opening in color.
