The Dick Tracy Show

There are three known versions of the opening titles. Other than the music and visuals seen on most TV airings and home media releases, there is also a version on some episodes that use the same visuals but with the faster and more chaotic theme heard over the end credits. There is also a completely alternate visual opening, which begins with the squad car coming down the alley as the voice-over announces the title (cutting out the aerial view of the city traffic jam parting for the squad car completely). After the title flashes up, this then cuts to a shot of Tracy in the moving car's passenger window, who turns and points his gun at the viewer and fires three individual shots, with each shot revealing a different set of three regular villains in the zoomed-in hole of the gun barrel. Tracy then puts his gun away and the sequence ends as the car drives away (the usual shots of the startled pedestrians are not used in this version). This version is rarely seen on TV or on any of the episodes released on home media as it appeared to be used only on select episodes, and most home media releases omit multiple opening and closing sequences between episodes.

Some airings delete all of the segments featuring Joe Jitsu and Go-Go Gomez due to protests over the ethnic stereotypes portrayed in them.
