The Simpsons is coming to Disney+ UK after all. The streamer has now confirmed that they will have over 600 episode of the classic animated series available to stream when they launch on March 24th. Additionally, sources tell TVWise that Sky and Disney have reached an accommodation which will see The Simpsons remain on Sky as a “co-exclusive”, with new episodes continuing to air on Sky One. 
The twenty-ninth season of The Simpsons will receive its UK premiere on Sky One on Friday December 29th at 8pm, it has been announced. 
The twenty-eighth season of Fox's long-running animated comedy series The Simpsons will receive its UK premiere on Sky1 on Sunday January 8th at 6pm with a double-bill, it has been announced. 
The Simpsons cast is staying intact. Harry Shearer, who voices more than 20 characters, has inked a new deal with Fox and 20th Century Fox Television to continue with the show through its already green-lit twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth seasons. Additionally, his deal, which is understood to be worth $300 000 per episode, also gives Fox an option for two additional seasons (the show's twenty-ninth and thirtieth). 
The Simpsons are not going anywhere. Fox has renewed the long-running animated comedy for a further two seasons, the show's twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth. The two-season pick up, which will keep The Simpsons on air through at least the 2016-2017 season, ensures that some 625 episodes will have been produced by the end of season 28.
