Shocking New Details About Mr. Burns’ Dark Past Revealed in ‘The Simpsons’!

by

In a unique episode of The Simpsons that premiered on February 12th, exclusively on Disney+, we get a fresh take on the origin story for C. Montgomery Burns, revealing why he became evil. Named “The Past and the Furious,” Lisa goes back in time to 1923 as Springfield faces a devastating loss of all its vegetation and attempts to save the Springfield Mini Moose, an animal that went extinct in 1925.

In an off-kilter storyline, Lisa spirals into depression after the demise of the plants orchestrated by Mr. Burns. Her parents Homer and Marge seek assistance for her, leading to a recommendation for EMDR therapy to address her emotional distress. During these treatments, Lisa experiences dreams transporting her back to 1923 during the Jazz Age, where she assumes the role of her great grandmother, Edith. Alongside a youthful Monty Burns (portrayed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt), the duo embarks on a journey to save Springfield Mini Moose, a task crucial for preserving the future. However, in this altered timeline, Edith unwittingly contributes to shaping young Monty into the ruthless tycoon Mr. Burns of the future.

The TV program often mixes things up with its characters and plots, but it’s essential that everything and everyone get back to their usual state within the show. So, they might create an amusing episode where young Mr. Burns goes on a time-traveling adventure with Lisa, but at the end of this episode, both characters should be exactly as they were at the start. This one-off origin story for Mr. Burns in this particular episode may not be part of the main continuity, but it provides an exciting twist to keep the series feeling fresh and new.

Previously, viewers had a glimpse of an unrealistic “The Simpsons Series Finale” episode in autumn. The series kickstarted its new season with this special episode. It showcased several renowned guest stars such as Conan O’Brien, a previous writer and producer on the show, Tom Hanks, Danny DeVito reprising his role as Homer’s half brother, Herb, Seth Rogen, and John Cena.

‘The Simpsons’ Will Receive Even More Content on Disney+

Currently, “The Simpsons” fall under the ownership of Disney, leading to exclusive content being made available on Disney+. For instance, a short Halloween special and a new holiday special in tribute to the original 1989 “The Simpsons Christmas Special” have been released on this streaming platform. The episode titled “The Past and the Furious”, belonging to season 36, is the first full episode of “The Simpsons” to be found on Disney+ rather than Fox network. This transition has stirred some debate, as viewers will now need a subscription to Disney+ to watch this particular episode.

The program will feature additional episodes available only on Disney+, as announced back in August at the D3 event. At least four episodes have been confirmed for exclusive streaming on the platform so far, including “O C’Mon All Ye Faithful,” “The Past and the Furious,” and a Halloween special. Similarly, Hulu streamed two exclusive Family Guy holiday specials. It remains unclear whether both shows will transition permanently to Disney+ and Hulu, or if this is simply a strategy to boost subscriptions for these streaming platforms.

As a devoted cinema enthusiast, I’ve got some exciting news about my two favorite shows! Currently, “Family Guy” is gracing our screens every Sunday at 8 pm Eastern Time (ET) or 7 pm Central Time (CT) on Fox. But,
