Looks like Disney may have to sell more sports networks.

Re: Disney Buys Fox
The assets of 21st Century Fox that Disney didn't buy will form a new company that was unofficially referred to in the press as "New Fox". It has now been officially named Fox Corp. which is consistent with Murdoch's other spin-off company News Corp.

The Simpsons has been renewed for seasons 31 and 32, but whether it gets renewed after those seasons is up to Disney:

Re: Disney Buys Fox
If you're still worried about Disney making Fox properties like The Simpsons and Family Guy "family-friendly", worry no longer.

Re: Disney Buys Fox
Actually, my biggest concern is what this will mean for the Disney parks. I only skim-read it, so I may have missed something, but I'm sure they didn't mention the parks, mostly just the Disney Plus thing.Mickeyfan1990 wrote:If you're still worried about Disney making Fox properties like The Simpsons and Family Guy "family-friendly", worry no longer.

Re: Disney Buys Fox
I didn’t read the article but with respect to the parks, I wouldn’t expect The Simpson’s anytime soon as I believe there is some sort of deal with Universal. There’s a whole Simpson’s miniland at Universal Studios Hollywood. Even if they could be added to Disneyland right away, I doubt Disney would just from the perspective of differentiation - I think they wouldn’t want people to say, “Oh I saw this at Universal.”Big Disney Fan wrote:Actually, my biggest concern is what this will mean for the Disney parks.
