"Yellow Mirror" isn't the first Simpsons special to be exclusive to Disney+, but it is notable for being a full-length episode rather than a short in the vein of "The Simpsons in Plusaversary." As the title suggests, this episode acts as a spoof of Netflix's popular sci-fi anthology series Black Mirror. It features two tales linked by a common dystopian technology theme.
Here's the official description for "Yellow Mirror":
A defective lamp reveals a heartbreaking truth about what Homer believes is reality, and an AI-powered tablet befriends and controls Maggie. The Simpsons struggle to find the light through two dark tales of the curious and bizarre in this Disney+ exclusive.
"Yellow Mirror" will premiere on Disney+ on Wednesday, August 26.
