New Simpsons is the ultimate insult to classic Simpsons.

So when is DHS getting a Springfield land? Maybe they could put in a simulator ride based on Krustyland?

They wouldn't do it without overtly letting you know that it doesn't mesh well with the Disneytm brand. Something like the Mission Breakout "thematically inconsistent" line but instead of Rocket Raccoon it's said by Bart and played through a loud speaker at every entrance of the land.

Can you imagine a collaboration between Chappy's dream team, and modern day Simpsons writers? Makes me sick just thinking about it.

TBH I still enjoy it. I dont actively watch but if theres new episodes on Hulu I'll use it for background noise.

Because some people still like it and watch it?
I don't personally understand why we still have reality shows...

Maybe see a doctor? You could have something wrong with your esophagus.

I think the Simpsons and SNL are today's equivalent of MAD Magazine (R.I.P.). They feed off an endless supply of new younger-generation audiences. For many kids (Simpsons) and Teens (SNL), it's their first encounter with a slightly higher level of humor and satire, but it's still friendly and easy to digest. Then they get older and move on to other things and interests, then years later they encounter the shows while browsing and say, "Wow! This is still going???" Matt Groening is the William Gaines of 2019.

Or a alergic reaction to cringey promo commercials.

Aaarrgh. If The Simpsons show up in DL, I am DONE with Disney...even more done than I am now.
. Disney's whole identity has been built around setting the high bar in quality animation drawing for others to aim for. Matt Groening himself said on a Larry King radio show during the Simpsons' first season, referring to the show's cheaper animation that "This is not the Little Mermaid." If the Simpsons go into DCA, fine. DL can remain the Happiest Place on Earth and DCA can become the Crappiest Place on Earth.

It is interesting there aren't on ride photos for the Falcon... You'd think it'd make sense since I'm sure families would love to buy a picture of them flying the falcon.

Disney stopped doing that twenty years ago when they started distributing made for video features to cinemas with Doug's Only Movie.

I say never give up. Disney briefly rebounded to release Princess/Frog and the Pooh feature. And that great little short about the paper airplanes. And now NETFLIX of all sources is about to release a beautiful-looking 2D animated film (Klaus) while Disney keeps wallowing in CGI (and creating fairly solid films). But Disney's big contribution to the world and film history remains their great hand-drawn animation. That and the best of the parks are all that currently distinguishes them from Comcast or any other faceless corporation.
