The NFL is set to air a unique animated alternate broadcast of the Dec. 9 Monday Night Football game between the Cincinnati Bengals and Dallas Cowboys, titled "The Simpsons Funday Football," available on Disney+ and ESPN+. Utilizing Sony's Beyond Sports technology, the broadcast will transform players into cartoon characters within the fictional world of Springfield, where Bart supports the Bengals and Homer cheers for the Cowboys. This production follows the success of last year's Toy Story-themed broadcast, which garnered three Sports Emmys and broke Disney+ records for peak concurrent viewers. Key voice actors from The Simpsons, including Dan Castellaneta and Nancy Cartwright, will participate, along with animated versions of ESPN talent like Stephen A. Smith and the Manning brothers. The event aims to attract both younger audiences and nostalgic fans, offering a playful take on traditional sports broadcasting while maintaining standard viewing options for those preferring conventional coverage. The simulcast will be accessible in over 145 markets globally, including live and on-demand options.
