Can someone enlighten me as to why widescreen versions are bad? Is it stretched out?

Literally ruins some of the jokes.

The show was for a looooong time drawn for a 4:3 aspect ratio. Meaning transiting those older episodes into a 16:9 formart cuts of a lot of the animation and in some cases ruins jokes/background gags.
Not until they've made their dime from home video sales.
Lazy cropping too. You can easily crop the bottom part instead to make the gag relevant.
What's not fair? That just because your subscribed to their service you expect to get everything instantly?

Why exactly is this so hard to do? Why couldn't they have done this immediately after people complained? Either way I will still subscribe when this is fixed.
Honestly I don't even think it's that. They just got the masters from Simpsons World and threw them on there without even bothering to check them.All they had to do was add black bars on the side. No cropping required. I guess they thought people would be aghast at something not in widescreen. Well tough luck for them. Widescreen is superior but a lot of media from the 20th century was created in 4:3.
In before it's still DNR'd and sharpened to all hell. Every FXX screenshot for The Simpsons I've seen looks bad.
It's even more bizarre than that - every Walt Disney Animation Studios film up until Lady and the Tramp is in 4:3 because widescreen theaters weren't a thing yet. And on Disney+ they're 4:3 just like they should be. Shows like Gargoyles are correct, too. The Simpsons thing must only exist because nobody bothered to check.All they had to do was add black bars on the side. No cropping required.

You can watch like half of DBZ Kai in 4:3 right now on Adult Swim's website if you wanted. (Most need a cable subscription or equivalent login, but the last few are free.)That's just inevitable sadly. I still have my DVDs of the classic seasons thankfully, but yeah, it's not a great remaster.
At least it'll be in its proper 4:3 format. It'll be a cold day in hell before shows like DBZ are again.

I know. It's just super haphazard is what I'm trying to say.This affects other Disney shows like Goof Troop, Gummi Bears and Chip'n'Dale too.

They got the FXX remasters but never the original copies.
