Wow, this intro is beautiful. At times I could hardly tell if I was looking at an actual photograph or a painting. The visuals seamlessly blend together the gritty city landscape and a surreal dreamworld. And I cant recall ever having seen an intro that looks like this.

While its certainly open to interpretation, I feel the story theyre going for here is this is all the perspective of Jessica Jones, how she sees the world around her. Thats a really interesting way to get inside a character's head and give you a good idea what her character is all about. Theres also a kind of Rear Window vibe going on here where you get the sense Jessica is closely watching all these lives unfolding around her. And the intro cleverly ends with the window of a building she is spying on transforming into her eye staring fixated, which was probably my favorite part of the entire sequence.

The theme song is astonishingly good, starting with a moody jazz vibe, and then building dramatically to rock. I particularly enjoyed the transformative segment starting at around 0:36, which was one of the coolest things Ive ever heard from a theme song to a TV show.

Id say this intro is one of the rare few that could be considered art.
