There are fans who are mad about Henry Cavill's "Bart Simpson" haircut in the Argylle trailer, but there's a good defense for it.
Jessica Simpson could have faced off against Ghostface in the '90s.

To celebrate Star Wars Day (May the 4th Be With You!), Disney+ will release a new Star Wars and Simpsons crossover short called Maggie Simpson in 'The Force Awakens From Its Nap.'
Back in 2017, comedian Hari Kondabolu made an extremely thoughtful and reasoned documentary titled The Problem With Apu, pointing out that the Indian-American character Apu (voiced by American actor Hank Azaria, who is of Sephardic Jewish descent) is a harmful racial stereotype that The Simpsons has been happily perpetuating for literal decades. In fact, Kondabolu goes so far as to call Apu a minstrel character, and it’s hard to disagree with him. It seems like the show has finally decided to listen, and from now on will no longer have white actors voice non-white characters. [caption id="…
Disney+ putting all episodes of The Simpsons on their streaming service? That's good. Disney+ "remastering" early episodes into a forced 16:9 aspect ratio, cropping off vital information and jokes? That's bad. Disney+ fixing their mistakes and allowing us to watch the episodes in their correct aspect ratios? That's good! Disney+ not making this viewing option the default and making you have to poke around to select it? That's... mixed? Yes, The Simpsons is now available on Disney+ in its original 4:3 aspect ratio, restoring all the info and jokes we've been missing. But …
As part of Streaming Day (ugh), Disney has announced that the original versions of The Simpsons episodes will be available next week – on May 28th, courtesy of a tweet from showrunner/executive producer Al Jean. What’s more, the Oscar-nominated Simpsons short “The Longest Daycare,” will arrive on the service the following day. Comedy geeks around the internet let out a collective, Homer Simpson-style “woo-hoo!” If you haven’t been following Simpsons aspect ratio gate, here’s what went down: When the show debuted as part of the launch of Disney+ last November, the first nineteen seasons (…
Gargoyles fans would be well within their rights to think that Xanatos, in one of his many successful gambits, ultimately brought about the end of the title team. But that's not the case. According to the action-packed animated series' co-creator Greg Weisman, it was another notorious 90s name that brought down the winged heroes: O.J. Simpson. Now if you think about that for a moment, it makes sense. Simpson's murder case was all that the media and TV-watchers wanted to see throughout the majority of 1995; I even remember my teacher interrupting class to …
The only thing surer in life than death and taxes is that a couch gag will always come before an episode of The Simpsons. This will be the case when a new episode debuts on Sunday, April 19 at 8/7c on Fox. For Sunday's couch gag, the folks at The Simpsons have whipped up a new couch gag which is both extremely relatable thanks to the current times we live in and very fun to watch. The couch gag title, "The Extremesons", really says it all. The premise of this particular couch gag shows Homer Simpson being sucked …
I don't know about you, but I'm still getting used to The Simpsons being under the banner of Disney rather than Fox. Sure, the historic former studio is still flying their own recently re-styled flag of sorts, but it's now as a subsidiary of a much cleaner, safer, and less button-pushing corporation. How this change will affect the classic, long-running animated series remains to be seen, but that probably won't be felt for a little while yet, at least not until after the franchise's new short film premieres. Today, Disney+ set a …
Good news today for anyone who wants to binge The Simpsons on Disney+ but doesn't want to spend that time zoomed directly into Homer's forehead. Disney confirmed it is still working to make The Simpsons episodes available to stream in a 4:3 aspect ratio format, instead of the current 16:9, and that the process should be done by the end of May. "We appreciate our fans’ patience and are working to make the first 19 Seasons (and part of 20) of [The Simpsos] available in 4:3 versions on [Disney Plus]," the company wrote. "We expect …
Has the Mouse House become daring, or have the Simpsons been swallowed? We review the short that was released with Pixar's Onward: "Playdate with Destiny."
Just when you thought there'd be no Marvel's Avengers adventures in 2020, The Simpsons step in to deliver an epic, superheroic, cinematic spectacular ... on the small screen. In an upcoming episode of the long-running animated sitcom, new parent company Disney will lend talent from its other subsidiary, Marvel's MCU, as guest stars on Sunday's new episode "Bart the Bad Guy." Arriving almost a year after Avengers: Endgame, this half-hour centers on the two-part Vindicators: Crystal War film event of the year decade epoch. (And no, those Vindicators aren't the same ones from …
A new Simpsons short film starring Maggie will premiere in theaters with Pixar's Onward.
When I went to my screening of Onward last week, there was no short in front of the movie, so I just assumed there wasn't one or that Pixar was saving their short film for their other feature this year, Soul. But it turns out that there will be a short in front of Onward and it comes courtesy of The Simpsons. The long-running animated sitcom posted this on Instagram: View this post on Instagram Maggie Simpson is speechless... Playdate with Destiny, a new Simpsons short film before Disney & Pixar’s Onward. Exclusively in theaters! #…
The Simpsons parody Avengers: Endgame in a new poster for the upcoming MCU crossover episode, which is set to feature some very special guests.
