The Dick Van Dyke Show is one of my all-time favorite television programs. Like nearly everyone else, I loved the opening titles.
For season two they shot a total of two different opening title sequences: one where Dick takes a pratfall over the living room ottoman and one where he averts disaster. These were randomly edited into the top of each show.
In season three they added a third sequence where Dick misses the ottoman but nearly trips himself anyway. You can notice that the first two were filmed at the same time (August 14, 1962 after finishing the episode titled "The Two Faces of Rob") because the cast is wearing the same outfits, but in the third sequence they are dressed differently.
Here are all three sequences mixed together.
And here they are again, but slowed down. Notice that even the initial shots of the first two sequences are distinctly different takes.
