The Simpsons: A Streaming Marvel
For decades, “The Simpsons” has captivated audiences with its satirical humor and endearing characters. Now, Disney+ is taking this cultural phenomenon to a new level by launching a dedicated 24/7 Simpsons channel that showcases every available episode in the order they aired.
A Streaming Tradition
Since the streaming service launched in 2019, Disney+ has been home to “The Simpsons,” offering fans access to seasons 1 through 36. The show’s latest season, number 37, is airing on both FOX and Hulu until its conclusion on February 15, 2026.
Exclusive Content
In addition to the extensive catalog of episodes, Disney+ has produced three exclusive special episodes: “O C’mon All Ye Faithful,” “The Past and the Furious,” and “Yellow Planet.” The streamer is also set to release two more exclusives in 2026: “Extreme Makeover: Homer Edition” and a presumed Black Mirror parody titled “Yellow Mirror.”
A Controversial Episode
The dedicated channel will not, however, include the controversial season 3 premiere episode, “Stark Raving Dad,” which saw Homer being sent to a mental health facility for wearing a pink shirt. The episode was pulled from public availability after the release of “Leaving Neverland,” detailing allegations against Michael Jackson.
Quality and Relevance
Longtime fans may have differing opinions on whether later seasons match the earlier ‘golden age.’ Despite this, the show has maintained its cultural impact and relevance. With over 797 episodes aired as of publication, “The Simpsons” is the longest-running scripted TV series in history and shows no signs of slowing down.
Future Prospects
The dedicated channel could provide a nostalgic experience for fans, allowing them to revisit favorite eras. Furthermore, with season 40 already renewed, there’s plenty more ‘Simpsons’ adventure on the horizon. Additionally, the upcoming release of “The Simpsons Movie 2” in July 2027 promises to continue the legacy.
Disney+ has once again demonstrated its commitment to providing fans with a comprehensive and nostalgic experience through this innovative streaming feature. As more episodes are added and exclusive content continues to be released, The Simpsons’ journey on Disney+ is poised to become even more legendary.
