New Simpsons Disney+ Short Parodies The Death Of Bambi’s Mom, But The Reason Why It’s In It Is Actually Very Sweet

As a lifelong fan of both The Simpsons and Disney, I must say that watching “The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year” was a delightful rollercoaster ride of nostalgia and humor. Being a parent myself, it’s always fascinating to see how my childhood favorites resonate with newer generations, and the way Al Jean weaved in references from his own family experiences made this short even more special.


A fresh take on “The Simpsons” features a crossover with beloved Disney animated films, giving villains another chance to make their mark. In “The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year,” Sideshow Bob is back for more revenge against the iconic TV family, but this time he’s got some formidable allies from Disney’s roster of bad guys. What really took my breath away was a nod to the 1942 film “Bambi”!

As a gaming enthusiast, I recently stumbled upon an interesting twist on the classic Christmas tune “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year” during my Disney+ binge. Sideshow Bob, along with some mischievous Disney villains, reimagined this holiday favorite, and it got quite intriguing!

Among Disney Classics, none quite touches my heart like dear old Bambi. The emotions it stirs within me are amplified as a dad of two little ones. They both fell head over hooves for this movie, but poor things were left reeling by Bambi’s mom’s untimely departure. Now, I can’t help but chuckle at our shared trauma – I mean, who doesn’t love a good laugh with Darth Vader, Thanos, and the rest of the gang?

There Are Two Simpsons Connections To Agatha All Along, And Here’s How They Came Together

In the revised tune of the track, Sideshow Bob croons, “Grilling a cat, and brewing poison, hunting a deer.” At the climax of this line, Bambi’s hunter is clearly visible, enjoying himself immensely while Bambi’s distressed mother is hit by his arrow. Notably, Sideshow Bob is adorned with a Bambi-themed apron in the scene. As an ardent admirer of Disney for years, I found this brief instance intensely disconcerting, yet I appreciated Al Jean’s explanation about the humor embedded within the brief sequence in the animated short.

In our chat, Al Jean mentioned an interesting point – the scene in “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year” where Bambi’s mom meets her untimely end isn’t the first time it’s been alluded to. This revelation has me considering a rewatch of the original series! I appreciate that this emotional moment holds such significance for Jean, as he’s a fan of the animated film. And let’s face it, if this one scene had such an impact on me, it just goes to show how powerful and enduring the classic movie truly is.

Apart from the delightful nod to Bambi, all the infamous Disney villains are present. Moreover, Darth Vader from Star Wars and Marvel’s formidable character Thanos are included as well. Notably, Agatha Harkness from WandaVision and Agatha All Along is introduced in The Simpsons for the first time, simultaneously topping Disney+ charts with her latest series.

The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year is such a fun short for Halloween time and a solid reminder that one of the most terrifying villain of all time in Disney history we never see the face of.
