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. The episodes are set to be given their original 4:3 aspect ratio in "early 2020".[2] The original 4:3 aspect ratio will set to return by the end of May.[3]
