No - both are very well-done and fascinating, with excellent openings. If anything I'd say Making a Murderer was a little better. It is interesting though, that they're basically mirror images of each other. The Jinx is about a man who committed evil acts, created chaos but escaped the consequences (for a while), while Steve Avery got hit with the consequences of evil (likely) perpetrated by someone else.
Quite possibly the best intro I have ever seen for any series. I usually fast forward through intros such as Boardwalk Empire and even Game of Thrones, but as a few commenters have mentioned. ..I could also watch this sequence over and over and probably still dig it. Incredible documentary, well done to the Producer and Director.
What i love about the intro is the first time i saw it, you feel dread because you have no idea how all the imagery connects, but by the time I see the final episode i still feel the sense of dread because i now know what Robert was capable of. As our understanding of what's been going on evolves, it takes on a whole new meaning.
Love how they segue from him as a little boy to him in prison. It doesn’t take a psychologist to see that witnessing his mother’s suicide at that young age probably had a lot to do with with him ending up in jail.
This plays like the bastard child of the “True Detective” and “Succession” opening credits. Oh, and rot in Hell, Bob. May you get the justice you deserve.
But we can have season 2!!!! He is actually responsible for a 1971 disappearance. A college student went missing, she was last seen near his shop (the one he owned with his first wife).
mlesch1 Well that's great news! Not enough people can go missing under Bob's watch for my liking. I'm not sure if that would be enough to carry Season 2 though. They might just write that one up to "Bob being Bob". What if he gets free and kills his douche bag brother? That would be a good storyline. They could tease it at the beginning of the season with dramatic flash forwards. And yes, before I get a bunch of negative responses to this, I am fully aware that Bob's past his murdering prime. I wouldn't bet against him though. I still think he has some game left. FREE BOB!
Anyone else feel/agree that The Jinx is far superior to Making A Murderer?
I agree, making a murderer is good but the jinx is a masterpiece
I agree its a superior show.
i think both are great. just that the ending was much more satisfying on Jinx.

This is not important but in terms of opening themes, Making a Murderer wins!
best opening since true detective
Stylistically it looks a lot like it as well..maybe the same team worked on it?
Michael Leon HBO, so maybe!
Yesss!
Theee Jinx: TTTThe Lifee and Deaths oof Roooobert Durst movie here => twitter.com/5bf3137f3fd4dc9ac/status/822762070722494464
Successions intro now since im commenting 6 YEARS after the op lmaooo
I not only loved the intro but the timming it had in every episode was perfect, it felt as an integral part of the show I could never fastforward it.
Well said
I usually skip the intro for everything. But not this. It's just perfect.
The shot of Susan falling in slow motion always gives me chills.

Still my favorite intro to any show ever. The Eels was a perfect choice. Chills every time
Fantastic intro! The scenes combined with the music give me goosebumps every single time. Woo!!
God i miss this show
The intro is JUST AMAZING. So is the series. Love it.
what an intro!
Love how they segue from him as a little boy to him in prison. It doesn’t take a psychologist to see that witnessing his mother’s suicide at that young age probably had a lot to do with with him ending up in jail.
Suicide? Well perhaps. Personally I think murder runs in the family. That Seymour Dust was no angel
the bit at the end of jinx omfg
Man, I love that freaky tune.
Need a cool show with a cool intro? HBO has you covered.
awesome420ication YES!! Same goes for The Night Of
❤just heard this song today. Hella Sopranos vibes! I love it! 5-12-24
This is the best intro I have ever scene gives me chills and sets up the wild ride we are in for
the opening to this and Making a Murderer are so good, holy shit
This intro is worth arresting
love this song...
WOOH! awoooooooo
A great song, join a great documental
My favorite song by BWOW
WOO!
This plays like the bastard child of the “True Detective” and “Succession” opening credits.

Thanks for uploading!
It took a forgetful person to remove his microphone to get him caught.....
Well... That and a forgotten envelope with his handwriting that somehow investigators missed the first time around, but the confession sure does help.
Portlandia and Bwow brought me here, lol.

Patrick Bateman anyone?
Nivzeh the real life american psycho
here to play this as a replacement intro while watching season 2, just switch to this one instead of the awful new one
2021

JamesD567 Hey with any luck, there'll be some mysterious deaths in prison while he's in there! Bobs definitely got a few more murders in him.
True detective knock off
Didn't like this intro.
