Trivia: This is the first Marvel show that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige considers to be canonically set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Although other shows such as Agents of S.H.I.E.L. D, Inhumans, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, The Punisher, Runaways, and Helstrom were said to be set in the MCU, Feige had no direct involvement or say-so on their direction, and therefore doesn't consider them to be canon. He even stated that he considers Phil Coulson to still be dead, despite being the main character in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
On a Very Special Episode... - S1-E5
Question: The intro sequence for this episode seems most closely based on Growing Pains, with a dash of Family Ties, but the painting being coloured in really reminds me of something else, I assume another TV show, but can't place it. Any inspiration?
Answer: I noticed that too and although I can't think of any sitcom starting like that it does remind me strongly of Bob Ross "The Joy of Painting" intro, which was from the 80's as well.
Chosen answer: The living painting is taken straight from the Family Ties intro.
