Police Squad. "Also starring Rex Hamilton as Abraham Lincoln." He never appeared in the show. That was the joke. Didn't they do that gag for every episode? Lincoln was a standard part of the opening, then they also had a guest star for each episode that got killed off during the intro.

The version of Will's mum in the Fresh Prince credits. She'd regenerated by the time she appeared in the show. Her sister also regenerated. In fact everyone in the opening credits aside from Will and Jazz never actually appear on the show. (Maybe the guy who airplane spins Will in the opening credits appears once, I remember Will goes back to Philly in one episode and confronts him, but I don't know if it was the same actor or not.)

In the original Pokemon opening, there was this random girl trainer that never made an appearance in any of the English dub episodes. Maybe she was in the Japanese original, as the Pokemon dub was handled by 4Kids for years and they're infamous for chopping up and butchering anime.

Nope, she wasn't in the original Japanese version either as she was just there for a quick sight gag as the lyrics of the original Japanese theme song mentions looking for Pokemon "through trees, clouds and under this girl's skirt" Here's a video that explains that in a little more detail. The intro of 4Kids dub used some of the footage of the original opening intro mixed with clips from the show and they left that part in.

Filmation's New Adventures of Batman only featured Riddler in the intro (With a PINK outfit) because Hanna-Barbera claimed dibs to him for Challenge of the Superfriends.

Will’s mom in the credits is apparently just Will Smith in drag.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Freakazette never actually appeared in an episode of 'Freakazoid', did she?

Kinda cheating with this one, but on the opening theme of the early seasons of Step by Step you can still catch glimpses of footage of the original young actor cast to play Mark, Jarrett Lennon. He was re-cast after the original (unaired) pilot was shot, supposedly because he didn't look enough like Suzanne Somers to convincingly play her son. Christopher Castile played the character when the show go to the air.

Cheating but Sidney Clute had a credit in the opening of Cagney and Lacey long after he died.

Towards the end of the X-Men: The Animated Series' original intro, we see Magneto leading a group of evil mutants in a charge against the X-Men. In Magneto's group we see Thunderbird (typically portrayed as a hero in the comics) and some random, short, bald purple-skinned guy who was apparently created as some sort of animation error. Neither character ever appeared in the series itself, or if they did it was as blink-and-you'll-miss-them cameos. Both of them are from the Genosha episode. the designer of the intro needed more people for spacing. The pink guy in green is Gargoyle (Who most notably... is NOT a mutant) So there was a very real chance we could have seen Domino or Feral in the intro instead

Not even Officer Carl Winslow!

Cheating but Sidney Clute had a credit in the opening of Cagney and Lacey long after he died. He was actually my first thought when I saw this thread. According to the show it was as a tribute to Sidney Clute, but the cynical side of me just wonders if they just never bothered updating the credits. Hopefully I’m wrong.

Did Mew and Mewtwo ever appear in the indigo era of Pokemon before/after the first movie?
