Disney+ Plans Exclusive Simpsons Episode Premiere February 12

Disney+ has announced that an exclusive episode of 'The Simpsons' titled 'The Past and the Furious' will premiere on February 12, 2025. In this episode, Lisa travels back to 1923 to learn about the extinction of the Springfield Mini Moose, teaming up with a younger Monty Burns in a bid to save them. This episode marks a shift in distribution, as it is one of several exclusive episodes that will not air on Fox, with the series expected to return to Fox on March 30, 2025. The episode is part of the ongoing 36th season of 'The Simpsons,' which has been a staple of pop culture since its debut. Disney+ hosts all previous seasons, including the series' shorts and movie, making it a comprehensive platform for fans. This strategy reflects Disney's approach to modernizing the show's distribution while maintaining its long-standing legacy in television.
