Simply put, Disney+ is the home of The Simpsons online now. The streaming service from the House of Mouse has the show’s exclusive rights and continues to showcase all the latest episodes as and when they become available. If you want to binge-watch all 698 episodes, this is the place to go. There’s no Disney+ free trial anymore but a month’s subscription costs just $7 for one month or $70 for a year’s subscription so it’s great value for The Simpsons fans. There’s also the Disney+ Bundle which offers access to Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu for just $13 per month — $5 less than it would cost to subscribe to the three services individually.

Alternatively, you can watch The Simpsons online by purchasing past episodes and seasons via Amazon Prime Video. Episodes start from $2 for older episodes to the latest tales costing $3. Full seasons are priced from $12 to $37. If you’re just looking to watch a certain couple of episodes, this might work out as the better deal but bear in mind that Disney+ offers plenty more than just The Simpsons.

Whichever method you choose, both Disney+ and Amazon have chosen to exclude a season 3 episode involving Michael Jackson, due to potential controversy surrounding the star. You might also notice that the show uses a dated 4:3 aspect ratio until midway through season 20 which may bother some users. Either way, the show continues to bring a smile to the face of many viewers. Whether you’re looking for a slice of nostalgia by watching episodes from your younger days, or you want to check out the latest The Simpsons episodes, these are your best options for watching online.

In an era filled with a wide array of streaming services, Disney tried to stand out by offering three different services at a single price point. Two of those services, Hulu and Disney Plus, offer chiefly fictional content. The third offering, though, is the ESPN streaming service known as ESPN Plus, which many users may have without even realizing, thanks to the Disney bundle. ESPN Plus gives you access to an array of documentaries, live sports, and original content, but all of that content doesn't do much good if you have absolutely no idea how to access it.

Thankfully, we've got all the information you need to subscribe to the service, and then watch ESPN Plus on whatever device you choose, whether that device is a PC, a TV, a table, or your phone.

Although plenty of streaming services have come and gone in recent years, Disney Plus doesn't seem like it's going anywhere. The service is an ideal one-stop shop for people of all ages, whether you're looking for a Disney hit of some previous era or the latest Marvel or Star Wars content. The streamer has an impressive library, which is part of what explains how it was able to compete with predecessors like Netflix.

The other reason the streamer has been relatively successful is that it's comparatively cheap. That's even more true if you subscribe to The Disney Bundle so you get Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN+ in a single package every month.
