The Simpsons Opening Sequence
"Opening Sequence" is another name for the titles. Each episode has this brief, lead-in scene that establishes the members of the Simpsons family, and some of the characters from Springfield. Most episodes use the standard opening or a variation thereof, and the parts of this standard opening sequence are described below. After Season One, the opening was changed significantly, with only a portion of the original animation kept for Season Two. These changes are noted.Information relating to Season One's opening sequence will be given in blue, and information pertaining only to later seasons will appear in red. Further notes on the fully reanimated, high-def, widescreen intro introduced in Season Twenty will appear in green; since this is closer to its predecessor, and to avoid confusion, an absence of green should imply no substantial change in content.
