The Simpsons
Disney+ has exclusive streaming rights over The Simpsons.[1] However, the episodes from before the show went widescreen are available on a 16:9 aspect ration, rather than their original 4:3 aspect ratio. This cuts off parts of the screen and even cuts out some jokes, such as a joke from the episode "Duffless" where Duff Beer, Duff Lite and Duff Dry are all shown coming from the same tube.[2] On May 28, 2020, the original 4:3 aspect ratio was made available with a setting on the The Simpsons page. This took so long because Disney+ had to make sure watchers could choose which version to watch without breaking other features of the website.[3]
The season 3 premiere "Stark Raving Dad" is also not available on Disney+, as it was from syndication due to the allegations of sexual abuse against Michael Jackson.[4]
The Maggie Simpson short Playdate with Destiny was released on Disney+ on April 10, 2020.[5] It's also confirmed that The Longest Daycare is available to stream on Disney+ on May 29, 2020.[6]
The short The Force Awakens from Its Nap was released on Disney+ on May 4, 2021[7] and The Good, the Bart, and the Loki was released on July 7, 2021.[8]
8 profile icons were released onto Disney+ on August 31, 2021 in commemorate the launch of Star+ in Latin America. The characters picked were Homer Simpson, Bart Simpson, Lisa Simpson, Marge Simpson, Maggie Simpson, Krusty the Clown, Ralph Wiggum and Dr. Hibbert.[9]
The special short, Plusaversary, was released on Disney+ on November 12, 2021.[10]
The Spanish-only short music video "Te Deseo Lo Mejor" was added to Disney+ on December 31, 2021, a week after its debut on YouTube.[11]
