The New York Comic Con (NYCC 2024) announcements continue! Earlier today, Max dropped their info on panels coming to the annual celebration of pop culture. And now it’s Disney Entertainment Television’s turn, with panels for What We Do In The Shadows, Goosebumps, The Simpsons, and more.
The Disney-infused festivities kick off on Thursday, October 17 with a panel celebrating the return of Phineas and Ferb with brand-new episodes. That panel promises special guests, but will there be a live platypus at the panel? Stay tuned.
Then on Friday, it’s time for a screening of the first two episodes of the sixth and final season of What We Do In The Shadows, along with a panel discussion with the cast and crew. On Saturday, The Simpsons take Manhattan with Matt Groening and more TBA. And Sunday is a double hit of Futurama, and the second season of Goosebumps.
