After 20 years, the Simpsons has changed their opening sequence. Now they seem to have this weird part where they are chasing their couch across Springfield. I’ll let you decide whether or not the new opener is a good one.

looooooooooooooooooooolz!!!
I think it is GREAT!
I don’t think it’ll remain that way.. This opening sequence was made to introduce the 1st Simpson episode… in HD!!!
It’s interesting at least, nice that they show more of the other characters and whatnot while still keeping elements of the original opening. Honestly though, I could care less about the Simpsons these days, they don’t seem to be that funny anymore. I can’t even remember the last time I watched a Simpsons episode.
this isn’t new at all. the simpsons has been changing the couch scene in the intro for years. they also play around with extending the intro all the time too.
The opening of every episode consists of two parts: the opening sequence and the couch gag. What you saw there was just an extended couch gag.
Wow, I feel like a nerd.
No seriously, it’s on Wikipedia.
The new intro sequence is cool, the couch thing is just the usual couch gag but longer.
If the intro sequence stays, it will be easier now to differentiate the good old episodes from the crappy new ones.
@admin : Your not thinking logically, this new Intro will stay. All future episodes are now in HD which requires a new HD version of the intro, hence the reason why they re-did it.
Yes it has changed, but the couch chasing part is just another simpsons couch gag part as Undead mentioned. I would assume that part will be different next week. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Simpsons_couch_gags
