The Simpsons goes Disney for brilliant new couch gag

Matt Tate

The Simpsons have had some brilliant guest-animated couch gags over the years, but the most recent one will take some beating.

The cartoon enlisted Disney animated Eric Goldberg to pay homage to some of his company’s most iconic movies.

Goldberg’s filmography includes classics such as Hercules and Aladdin, and his couch edit takes viewers on a Simpsons-ified journey from Steamboat Willie to The Jungle Book – with Homer as Baloo.

The Springfielders are enjoying their Disney detour so much that they look absolutely gutted when Bart – decked out as The Sorcerer’s Apprentice from Fantasia – shows up and turns them back into their regular selves.
