If I’m getting you right you’re talking about a sequence at the beginning of the TV program,
showing the protagonists, often mixed with Motion Graphics and music?
And that sequence would appear at the beginning of each episode, right?
When I was working in a German TV channel (2000-2009), they were calling them the “Signation”.
But I think the term might differ from country to country or even from channel to channel.
I hope that helps...

Back in the 90s we used to call them 'Intros'' or  ''I.D.s''. (because they were supposed to create an identity or ''Personality'' for each time slot). Sigh....

Frameworkers whose day job is TV, can you tell me what is the industry term for moving image introductions to program series. I’m thinking of TCM’s non-verbal mini-narratives that precede movies — one imitating Edward Hopper’s “Nighthawks,” another where golden Adonis’s push a giant world globe. They function like logos, but logos are still graphics.
