One of the great things about television is how characters change and develop over the course of the show's run. Though many great characters benefit from multiple episode story arcs, certain characters burst onto the scene with aplomb, showing the audience exactly who they are in their first moments. Here are some of my favorite character introductions:
This clip is from the original, uncensored version of the pilot.
Other best AD intros: Lucille, Barry Zuckercorn
Tracy Jordan - 30 Rock
The funny part about this one is that it drastically undersells the extent of Tracy Jordan's insanity.
Prop Joe - The Wire
(skip to 2:51)
"It's 85 degrees and you tryin' to be Pat Riley!"
"Look the part be the part, motherfucker"
Wash - Firefly
"Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"
Señor Chang - Community
"I AM A SPANISH GENIUS!"
BONUS!:
Molotov Cocktease - The Venture Bros.
Unfortunately for Brock, it's always cold in Siberia.
