Thousands of The Simpsons fans make huge demand to Disney+ for brand new feature on streaming service

Thousands of The Simpsons fans make huge demand to Disney+ for brand new feature on streaming service

The people have spoken and it's a great option for those who like to live life on the edge

Watching your favourite TV show on demand is something that most people are guilty of doing as it offers the ability to binge each episode, one after the other.

However, fans of The Simpsons have a different view on this.

The hit animated sitcom has been a permanent feature in a lot of people’s childhoods, having watched the original airings or reruns every night.

But there’s something about the beauty of watching a random episode appear on your screen and not a continuation of the last.

The best part about the show is that there are so many episodes to choose from, and all of them are brilliant to watch.

So, anything that comes on the TV is bound to make for a good time.

When Disney Plus introduced the series to its streaming platform, many fans were thrilled, but a lot of them believe it’s missing the same zest as when it was televised.

Now, they’re making a huge demand for the service provider.

One social media user is asking Disney to include a randomised feature which will allow the viewer to shuffle the episodes so that they are watching the show in a haphazard order.

Five Finger Discount on X wrote: “I wish @DisneyPlus would add a "randomise" button here for The Simpsons. I miss the element of surprise not knowing what episode was about to air on TV.”

But it wasn’t just them who felt the same way, it turns out here are a lot of people who are for this feature button.

One person wrote: “In the "old" days of syndication they'd air two episodes back to back and one would be older and one considerably newer, which I enjoyed other than a sometimes obvious dip in quality. This doesn't work for serialized shows obviously.”

Another chimed in: “IKR it’s like how has no streaming service except for a couple of shows on Netflix (or Hulu I can’t remember) implemented a shuffle button. I just wanna watch a random episode sometimes not just from episode 1 of whatever season or having to pick one and start from there.”

Someone else wrote: “I want a shuffle button and a playlist shuffle so bad. Let me chose a bunch of shows and just shuffle it.”

One person had the stellar wish to create a playlist for the Treehouse of Horror episodes you can binge for Halloween time: “That and an option to play the collections in order such as Treehouse of Horror, Predict, Travel, etc.”

It appears that the post gained so much popularity that even Disney Plus went on to see it too.

The channel wrote below in the comments that they appreciate the feedback, but the feature isn’t available.

It said: “Hello! We appreciate your feedback and understand how a "randomize" button can enhance your viewing experience. While this feature is not available yet, we strive for ways to improve our services. Your feedback is valuable to us and will be shared with our team.”
