‘The Simpsons’ Officially Takes on ‘Black Mirror’ in First Trailer for New Disney+ Special
The Simpsons has released “Yellow Mirror”, a Disney+ special parodying Netflix’s Black Mirror. The trailer presents two technology-themed stories, continuing the animated sitcom’s long tradition of satirising prominent television programmes and films.
One story follows Maggie after an AI-powered tablet befriends and controls her, while another sees a young Homer question his reality. The special was announced in May 2026, is exclusive to Disney+ rather than Fox, and joins previous Simpsons spoofs of titles including Death Note, Westworld, 24, Homeland and Game of Thrones.
