OPENING CREDITS-LOL. Those opening credits was connected to the pilot episode and it was never changed. Since the opening credits showed Will arriving to Bel-Air and knocking on the door, i would think it makes sense to change the opening credits in the 4 or 5th season.

Yes it does count. The simpsons Is not some Saturday Morning Cartoon. Its a Primetime TV show/Sitcom, so it does count.

And yes it is a cartoon, but why should that matter? are you saying Cartoons aren't allowed to Change theyre opening credits? and Other Examples? You said Fresh Prince was the only show that didn't change the Opening credits. And you are wrong!

I wasn;t sure whether i was wrong about Fresh prince being the only sitcom that never changed it's opening credits. I just want someone to prove me wrong with a show that's not a cartoon. So if you can let me know of any other shows that had the same opening credits then feel free to do so.

They probably just decided not to change it because it was so popular and had kind of become a trademark of the show.

Sanford and Son did update their opening credits in the later seasons. It wasn't a major change in the credits but minor changes In the early seasons, when Lamont pulls into the driveway there is a woman crossing the street with a light blue jacket. In the later seasons, when Lamont pulls into the driveway there is no one crossing the street. Fresh Prince never updated their opening credits.

Not only can I name another show that never changed their opening credits, but I can name a show that also had a big similiarity between it and "Fresh Prince"--the opening credits showed the main character knocking on the door and then moving in, just like Will! Ohhhh, I rock.

Just playing. The show is "The Nanny."
