Disney+ Is The New Exclusive Streaming Home For “The Simpsons”

Our jaws just hit the floor.

 

 

 

Starting November 12th, the date of launch for the $6.99 Disney+ streaming service, every episode and every season of The Simpsons will be part of the service’s 7500 episodes of television and 500 hours of films. To help kick off the celebration, a new clip featuring The Simpsons has arisen which features the family trying on their new hats:

 
Recently nominated for a 2018 Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program, THE SIMPSONS exploded into a cultural phenomenon in 1990 and has remained one of the most groundbreaking and innovative global entertainment franchises. HOMER (Dan Castellaneta), MARGE (Julie Kavner), BART (Nancy Cartwright), LISA (Yeardley Smith) and MAGGIE are instantly identifiable around the world. The Emmy Award-, Annie Award- and Peabody Award-winning animated comedy will celebrate its 30th season this year.

THE SIMPSONS is a Gracie Films Production in association with 20th Century Fox Television. The series was created by Matt Groening and developed by James L. Brooks, Groening and Sam Simon. Brooks and Groening are executive producers. Al Jean also serves as an executive producer and the series’ showrunner. The Gracie Films Worldwide Brand Division develops and produces the licensed content for the series.
 

Doing this essentially tosses out the need for that Simpsons World app but if you have Hulu and FXX, need not worry, it appears the syndication deals for those networks will stay as is.
