Eddie Posted December 28, 2005 Report Posted December 28, 2005 Does anyone have any idea why these credits were aired? I found them to be very dark and emignatic. A far cry from all the other sets they have ever used. The shots looked very horrorish. Umberella's, bird cages ect. http://www.backtothebay.net/credits/opening/credits_99.shtml
Eddie Posted December 28, 2005 Report Posted December 28, 2005 They weren't the worst, but I never thought that the show would use a set like that. They were probably just trying out new things. I guess some of the shots were ok but Irenes, Alf and Ailsa's, Gypsy's, Natalies and Hayley's kinda freaked me out for the first week.
Eerik Posted December 28, 2005 Report Posted December 28, 2005 I think that they are great and not dark at all. I dislike those ugly blue ones from seasons 2000, 2001, etc. Just my opinion!
Eddie Posted December 28, 2005 Report Posted December 28, 2005 I detested them too. They were fine for a while and then I just edded turning away from the tv until they were finished.
ste Posted December 29, 2005 Report Posted December 29, 2005 The 1999 credits are my absolute favourites. I loved all the credits from 1996 to 1999, they were all the same style. They weren't supposed to look dark, just kind of surreal and sexy like being in a dream or something. They are way better than the current ones. My favourite is the one of Natalie Nash with a ghostly Natalie appearing and disappearing in the background (used when the new actress took over from the old one :cool: ), and there was also one of Mitch appearing inside a shadow of his own head.
Eddie Posted December 29, 2005 Report Posted December 29, 2005 Irene looked like she was off to a funeral in her shot.

pam Posted December 29, 2005 Report Posted December 29, 2005 I liked those credits. I really hated the stupid blue ones from the beginning of '00 to the end of '03. They were so boring, the new ones are more 'soapy' but they were really good IMO.
Sunny Girl Posted December 29, 2005 Report Posted December 29, 2005 I too really loved those credits. They were surreal and I thought they really added an extra 'zing' to the show's opening and closing titles. Hated the blue ones though. 'Home and Away' really took a step back when they bought those in . .. They were boring, stock standard, below average - and they didn't suit the show at all . . . They would have suited 'Neighbours' down to the ground though. So says the person who has never watched an episiode in her life before ! !
