People are spotting how weird front-facing Simpsons characters look and it’s a little unsettling

You will never unsee this.

In the 629 episode of The Simpsons that have aired, can you remember the amount of times you’ve seen your favourite characters faces straight on?

Well, the answer is probably not a whole lot as the characters have barely ever been drawn that way. Yes, the illustrators on the hit cartoon have seldom included a clip where the characters are facing directly toward the audience.

Well, one viewer decided to fix that by sharing images of some of the show’s main characters faces from a front-facing perspective and it is weird

“Is there anything more cursed than front facing Simpsons characters?” read the caption on the post which has since gone viral.

And the post has started a trend with others screengrabbing moments from the show where we got a glimpse at the characters’ full faces.

However, there is one character who looks just as we’d imagine her to; it’s Marge.
