The intros are included, as separate tracks. Opening teasers in some cases (or
maybe those are included in the separate intros), some complete openings,
closing crawls which sometimes identify "Announcer: Durward Kirby" even though
you didn't hear him. By the way, is Art Gilmore the Playhouse 90 announcer on
"The Comedian"? Someone else intros "Days of Wine and Roses".
