Simpsons Opening Faithfully Recreated by Self-Isolating Family

A Canadian author and his family have spent their time in isolation recreating a makeshift, live-action tribute to the iconic Simpsons intro. The video subsequently captured the attention of The Simpsons showrunner Al Jean and was also shared by the show’s official Twitter account. Joel Sutherland posted the homemade homage to social media on Wednesday, which features his family clad in repurposed Halloween outfits and various household items standing in for crucial props. A recorder replaces Lisa’s saxophone and a hot dog becomes the crucial inanimate carbon rod. Check it out below:

Social Isolation, Day 23

Kids: We're booooored! What can we do? Wife *cleaning basement*: What are we ever going to do with these Simpsons Halloween costumes we only wore once? Me: pic.twitter.com/6oLiyvdcWu — Joel A. Sutherland (@joelasutherland) April 8, 2020

Sutherland isn’t the only Simpsons fan using his time in isolation to celebrate the show; a fan recently made headlines down under by crafting meticulous custom Simpsons shirts for every team in the Australian Football League.
