After more than 30 years entertaining America, The Simpsons have finally come to an end.
Or have they? The latest season from FOX teased fans with a bold meta premiere of Bart contemplating the show’s possible end. There is, of course, a whole season to come, but with such a shocking premiere, we’re eager to watch what happens next. Here’s our guide to watch the latest season of The Simpsons.
Where to watch The Simpsons Season 36
The latest season of The Simpsons airs on FOX every Sunday at 8 PM ET/7 PM CT, starting on September 29. Each episode streams on Hulu the following day.
There are two ways to watch The Simpsons Season 36: live on FOX or streaming the next day on Hulu.
The Simpsons Season 36 on FOX
You can watch The Simpsons Season 36 on FOX without cable on one of these cord-cutting services:
Fubo
Designed for the ultimate sports fan, Fubo is an on-demand and live TV service that streams games from multiple leagues including the NFL, NBA, MLB, and the Premier League. You can get up to 215 live channels on your lineup, which includes coverage on RSNs and local stations, though you might have to pay extra if you want premium entertainment channels like Starz and Showtime.
Hulu with Live TV
Combining the best of streaming and cable, Hulu with Live TV pairs Hulu’s original programming like Only Murders in the Building, imports like Normal People, and licensed ABC shows like Modern Family with live TV channels like CNN, CBS, and TCM to give you an all-in-one TV package. The plans start at $77/month (with ads), but for an additional fee, you can upgrade to a bundle that removes commercials and throws in Disney+ and ESPN+ to the mix.
YouTube TV
Often dubbed as the best cordless replacement to cable, YouTube TV is a live TV streaming platform that gives you access to more than 100 channels, sporting events, local channels, unlimited DVR space, and up to three simultaneous streams. But what really gives YouTube TV its edge is customization; depending on your needs, you can easily add premium channels like HBO, sports channels like NFL Redzone, and Spanish channels like Unimas to your preferred lineup.
Sling TV
Slings TV is a relatively affordable and wide-ranging live TV streaming service that has three main plans: the family-friendly Sling Orange, the sports-and-news-focused Sling Blue, and the comprehensive Sling Orange + Blue. The latter has a total of 46 channels, including IFC, TNT, and MGM, plus cloud DVR and simultaneous streams. You can also add multiple add-ons, like the Sports Extra, the News Extra, and the International Extra, to enhance your base package.
Fubo Elite
If you're a sports fan looking to cover all your bases, Fubo Elite has more than 256 channels and 130 live events that cover sports of all kinds, from basketball to cricket to golf. Channels include ESPN, CBS Sports Network, FS1 and FS2, beIN Sports, NFL Network, all the BIG Networks, and more. Depending on where you live, you should also have all the major local networks like ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX. Even though Fubo Elite is a notch above the basic tier, with unlimited DVR and simultaneous screens, it still notably does not have Turner channels like CNN, TNT, and TBS.
The Simpsons Season 36 on Hulu
As one of the big three of streaming, there’s no need to introduce Hulu. Here is a refresher and a link to subscribe:
Hulu
Hulu may be on the cheaper side at just $7.99/month, but the on-demand streaming service boasts an ever-growing catalog of original series like The Handmaid’s Tale, primetime hits like Modern Family, and BBC imports like Killing Eve. It’s also where you’ll find FX’s critically acclaimed titles like Atlanta, Fargo, and Reservation Dogs. Hulu runs on ads, but if you can’t stand commercials, you can go ad-free for $17.99/month.
Is The Simpsons really ending?
Fans were shocked when the whole season started with Conan O’ Brien announced The Simpsons was finally ending.
But don’t worry, this was just a shocking meta intro for America’s longest running sitcom, which still has more episodes to come. There is at least one whole season to enjoy with these funny residents of Springfield, with four special episodes exclusively premiering on Disney+.
As of now, however, FOX hasn’t announced a renewal for Season 37.
Most seasons are available to watch on Disney+ & Hulu bundle
All the episodes of the latest season of The Simpsons are available to stream on Hulu, but the first 34 seasons are also available with the Disney+ bundle.
Disney+
The on-demand streaming service Disney+ gives you access to thousands of films and TV shows not just from Disney itself, but from partner studios like Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, National Geographic, and ABC. It's a giant umbrella of content for a fairly reasonable price of $7.99/month with ads and $13.99/month without, but if you want even more, Disney+ offers premium add-ons you can stack to your plan, as well as the famous Trio bundle, which gives you Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ at a discounted price.
