Back when Disney Plus launched, The Simpsons fans were screaming a righteous "D'oh!" If y'all didn't observe the first time, early seasons of The Simpsons that aired before the ascent of HDTV were beingness streamed at the 16:9 aspect ratio — which stretched out the format of the images, cutting out sight gags and making the show hard to watch.

Information technology was such an abrasive blunder (FX had already gone through this earlier, Disney should accept known) that it helped me cancel my Disney Plus subscription once The Mandalorian was over. Thankfully, our long national Treehouse of Horror is almost at an end.

• The all-time streaming services around
• Which of the all-time streaming devices is right for you?

Today (May 20), as a part of its large National Streaming Day push, Disney gave me a appointment to resubscribe to Disney Plus. On May 28, Disney Plus volition finally fix the incorrectly cropped classic The Simpsons episodes. In a tweet, @DisneyPlus stated "Episodes in original 4:3 aspect ratio are coming to #DisneyPlus on May 28."

Confused about why an aspect ratio could thing and so much? Well, The Simpsons is famous (in part) for its fantabulous employ of the whole screen, and groundwork elements contained extra jokes. The below shot, for example, was how Disney Plus presented a tour of the Duff beer factory.

What you don't see there — because of the forced aspect ratio crop to 16:nine — is that each of those vats of Duff beer are coming from the same overall Duff pipe.

It's moments similar this that pushed me to postpone the ultimate Simpsons marathon I've been wanting to do for a while now. But on Thursday, May 29, I restart my Disney Plus subscription.

It's a perfectly cromulent opportunity to sentinel all of The Simpsons.
