Meerkats vs Dirty Sexy Money

So I saw the previews to Dirty Sexy Money a long time ago, and the title through me off and I had no real interest to see it until earlier this week one of my coworkers mentioned it and showed me a clip from it. I noticed it had Peter Krause from Sports Night so I decided to give it a shot. A week later I've seen about 6 episodes and I like the show so far.

My only beef with the show is that the intro to the show is almost exactly like the intro to Meerkat Manor. Both introduce the family members 1 by 1 by saying their name, and their position in the family, and the last introduction is to multiple people, with a description of their behavior. Let's compare:
