The Simpsons: Now in HD?!

I know I am supposed to care about and redistribute the new two-minute title sequence for The Simpsons that aired on Sunday to coincide with the show's debut in HDTV, and yet, seeing what cartoon skin looks like in high-definition is just not the same as watching sports, a concert or the Victoria's Secret fashion show. Yawn. Has it really been 20 years? That's quite a fortunate career for those voice actors who have stuck with the show. Anyhow. Here is how The Simpsons tried to make a President's Day joke for Barack Obama.

And here is the extra-long new version of the opening titles.

  1. I wish they made this earlier so that I could say, “It went downhill right after that new theme.” But instead I have just an ambiguous idea of when the show went downhill.

  2. The new sequence and the new season are both fantastic. if you haven’t watched the show in ten years, you’re selling yourself short.
