Odd, that doesn't happen here.

Who knows but I've noticed this with several series, by the way.

Could be.

Cool titles. I wished they'd name the first episode something other than pilot. But that is just a common practice for shows, but some don't do it. But Buffy, Charmed and Xena all gave the first episodes their own titles.

Oh well.

Yeah, looks that way when the authors are so "unproductive" in that area.

Yup.

Of course, titles don't appear on the actual aired episodes anymore.  That seemed to fall out of fashion in the early 00's.

Most episode titles are on the script only these days.

That's true, Supernatural is the last show to have done it, but it started when it was still a thing, so it makes sense.

I used to love when Xena and Hercules showed the titles on the episodes.

True they could use something like The Last Son Of Krypton as a pilot title but it's not uncommon for shows to just have the name Pilot as their first episode title which Supernatural had when that came on 15 years ago.

Yeah, so do I. Here in Germany, it's a common thing to have titles for the episodes. That's why I have to think about it twice, with knowing of course the German title first instead of the English one.

All the Star Trek shows, up to Enterprise, did it.
