The Simpsons New HD Opening Sequence

That's because you're biased or you lack the technology or art Knowledge to appreciate it. This opening is an improvement over the 80's/90's opening. I'm sure people can't let go of their "Good Ol'' days where everything was drawn in sticks and moved like fish"

The real fact is that this an improvement over the original opening of the Simpsons. You don't have to like it, but the fact is that this is an improvement in terms of drawing and production wise. and goes more according to the production current era.

What? You expected more Vhs Vs Beta jokes?
 
Denial? I know which episodes I like and which ones I don't like. But after 20 years (well longer considering I was watching during the Ullman days) one gets an emotional attachment to something and even though you know it's nowhere near as good as it used to be it's hard to let it go. It's like visiting a relative you remember fondly from your childhood. You used to have a good time with him, but now he's old, and tired and on life support. Even though there's little left of a once great relationship you still love this person for everything they once shared with you and it's hard to turn your back on them.

I know that's a deep analogy but that's how I feel about the show. I'd like to be able to say I've stuck by the show to the very end but they certainly haven't made it easy these days.
 
See, the problem is you're trying to make this a bit more black and white than it is. For many people, the technical standard of animation is how much life goes into it. Is this more cleaner and detailed than previous openings? Yes. But it's also very rigid and flat, seemingly trading in a tangible soul for basic eyecandy.
