Pretty sure the Splash edit was done specifically for Disney+

I know why Simpsons is chopped and uglified the way it is, but that’s separate from Disney being very weird about protecting for “family friendliness” above and beyond what they initially seemed to be planning with the streaming platform. They’re being very precious about the content in a pretty weird and counterproductive way.

It just doesn’t make sense to be this overboard about “the children!” when they launched (and still have) a ton of content that is honestly not at all aimed at, or really intended for, children. In fact you could argue the most financially successful stuff ON that platform is all PG-13 and isn’t really for kids at all.

Either a bunch of that stuff should be shunted off to Hulu, or they need to stop being so precious. Right now they’re riding fences for no good reason and people are getting frustrated.
