Here's Bryan Cranston being responsible for two of my favorite cold opens which could not be any more different from each other:

I'm sure it's been done, I haven't looked, but I'd watch a video of every Office cold open ever.

One of my faves

The obvious winner...



Crap, I didn't see that this was already posted early in the thread. I'll offer my 2nd favorite Letter Kenny opener. Have a couple of friends from CA so this is a common conversation I have with them.

Seems like mostly comedies have been posted, but the first one that came to mind is from The West Wing, multiple episodes could qualify, but the two i remember most are the episode "17 People" when Toby figures "it" out:





and then the cold open to "Bad Moon Rising". Which is also fantastic bc Oliver Platt as the WH Counsel is superb casting (its also funny seeing Cam from Modern Family in a "blink and you miss it" role in the background):

I've never laughed so hard in my life when he said Battlestar Gallatica.....
In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.
