Disney Plus: 10 Things You Must Watch First

What better way to top off on of the greatest Disney films ever than with one of it's greatest parodies ever?

Following Disney's buyout of Fox, multiple properties were merged into the Disney family, with The Simpsons being one of the more high profile names. And with the launch of Disney Plus, 30 seasons of the show are available, including some of the more controversial ones like "Homer's Phobia" and "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson".

Yes, there are better episodes but this loving satire of Mary Poppins is the perfect starting point for fans of both the show and the company that now owns it, as a broken-down Marge is struggling with her family, and the royalty-free Shary Bobbins comes in to save the day, while slowly being broken down herself. Throw in some catchy musical numbers and you get the sort of parody the Simpsons does best.

It's also worth watching to see just how poorly the earlier seasons of the Simpsons have been implemented onto the service, with the stretching to fit the 16:9 aspect ratio make the episodes nearly unwatchable. Disney have announced this will be fixed but until then, at least we can listen to it.
