Episodes With NO Aerial Views of SF AFTER Intro Song

[Aaeiyn]

I had a curious thought and wanted to compile a list, together, of episodes that do not have any aerial views of SF after the intro song.  I double checked my digital copy which I assume is the same as the physical copies (minus the music, but I digress) and gathered every episode that did not have any aerial views of SF after the intro song.  Here is what I gathered:

Interesting. I forgot S1 had two that didn't. But then I remembered every episode of S1 and S2 had a post opening credits song playing just not over the aerial shots of SF.

Do you know how many episodes have zero music/artist songs playing after the opening credits where it goes directly into story.

I always imagine these were always just filler doing the post credits aerial view of the city with a song. I always loved these especially the songs they picked. As I had fun doing those polls.Which I get is why they stopped doing them as the show went on.

So many in S6. I didn't think it was that many at that point.

I don't count the generic music played, when the camera showcases the exterior of the house then goes inside for the dialogue as "filler". If you see some of those, it's the generic "Manor Jingle" is what I call it LOL
