| ] is an ] animated series. Its theme music is performed by ] and has various opening credits. | |||
| == Disclaimer == | |||
| At the start of nearly every episode is the fake disclaimer which states that the programme has characters based on real people, and should not be viewed by anyone. This features at the start of all episodes, except various spin offs. | |||
| ] | |||
| == Theme Music == | |||
| The theme music is performed by Primus. It was originally meant to be rather slow and dull but was released more sped up. The old theme, without lyrics is used as the shows closing theme. However when the boys entered 4th Grade it started with the original theme and changed to a more hip-hop version. From season six onwards it has changed to an even faster version. | |||
| ==Title Sequences== | |||
| ] | |||
| ===Type one=== | |||
| It started off with the boys' heads connecting onto their bodies and the scenery sliding in. The boys then get on the school bus on their way to school while events and characters can be seen in the background. After a series has been shown clips from that series would be put in, and by the final time it was used it was packed with lots of clips. If there is a guest star a jagged shape appears which spins stating the name of the voice artist and who they are playing. It appears when the bus sinks off in the horizon. | |||
| ===Type Two=== | |||
| When the boys entered 4th Grade, the heads falling out the sky onto their bodies started, but then the music slows down. The South Park sign moves into the background, and then a huge explosion blasts the boys and the sign away. Then, a huge spinning object, shaped like a stereo, appears saying "4th Grade". It then shows 3D images of the boys rotating as they sing their lines, in between, clips are shown (mainly explosive ones) and words flash along the bottom of the screen saying things like ''"More explosions!"'' and ''"Smarter"'', ''"Faster"'' and ''"Improved walk cycles"''. Instead of the crowd scene, a 3D image of Timmy rotates and there is live footage of a man jumping over a car in an explosion. For the special guest stars, the jagged object appears in the part before Kenny's 3D image appears, but spins faster. | |||
| ===Type Three=== | |||
| In season six, the show was given a new title sequence. It starts off with live footage of hands cutting out the characters and gluing them down on top of clips, which would change every season. After Kenny died, Timmy was cut out, but after he returned it was Kenny instead. A joke in the titles shows a pair of scissors knocking Kenny's head off after he has been cut out. For special guest stars, the jagged object appears, spinning rather quickly. | |||
| ===Syndication=== | |||
| Episodes aired in syndication feature a completely different opening sequence which blends elements from all three previous incarnations and features the sound effect of a cash-register right before the lyrics begin (a reference to the fact that the show's distributors, producers, and creators stand to make more money from the syndication airings). | |||
