In 2006, the animated television series *The Simpson* featured a live-action opening sequence created by a television network and broadcast during the official intro of an episode. The segment was written by British comedian and writer Ricky Gervais.
Despite its novelty as a promotional experiment tied to the long-running show, the live-action sequence has largely faded from public memory, with few viewers currently recalling its existence.
