Has it? Must have missed it. It's really cool, but isn't Malcolm in the Middle broadly the Simpsons done with real people?
It's the fact that they left out Lisa that screwed the show up...

Minifig - isn't Malcolm equivalent to Lisa?
I love this video. Damn Sky for doing it, damn their eyes.

abc: sometimes we huddle together in the cold and rain to watch a tiny, flickering black and white image on a communal "tellybox" as we call them, it's true.
bobbie: buffoon that I am, I'd never really noticed that, but yes, you are right...

There's a feature on this in today's Guardian which I can't for the life of me find online. Apparently it was initially commissioned as a Sky One trailer for the Simpsons, but spiralled into something much bigger once they realised the complexity of it all.
It gets its first broadcast airing this coming Sunday.
