What are you going to do with alternate universe episodes or the Treehouse of Horror episodes?

Treehouse of Horror, I'm probably just gonna leave out entirely. Alternate universe episodes? I guess I'll just put [Alternate Universe] after them as a footnote
 
I am including the first Treehouse of Horror, though. That's literally just Bart and Lisa telling scary stories
 
I'll have to look into them. I'm gonna include most shorts (yes, even the Disney+ ones, it's just parody so it works) though since the show probably won't acknowledge its connection to Fortnite other than Easter eggs/jokes, I probably won't include those shorts. Again, I'd have to look into them

The Fortnite short is very much canon if you look into it. It's pretty much just a regular Simpsons short that explains why there's a Simpsons island in Fortnite. There's the same voice actors from the show involved. It's the same animated style.
 
A lot of fandoms (not the website, the fanbase themselves) just assume things aren't canon, which then gets the "considered non-canon" title, which is stupid, as there's no actual reason to assume it's not canon. Freddy's Nightmares, Leatherface, the Saw video games, the majority of tie-in comics, I could go on, it'll get referenced as "considered non-canon" in fandoms, which devolves to "not canon" due to ignorance

It was more that the show would contradict it. Though, I don't follow Fortnite much. I presume there's playable Simpsons characters? Who wouldn't just not show up in the show (probably). If the show implies the connection though (or I'm just completely mistaken, I will review the shorts when I get home) I'll add them

The short shows the Simpsons reality merging with the Fortnite island. The playable characters are just skins, they aren't the real versions.

Essentially, all of our playablw characters are snapshots of the real ones... clones that continue to exist even when the real versions leave. The real versions of these characters show up on the map as people you can talk to and in events sometimes. As far as The Simpsons is concerned, I think you can get away with including only the short with a [Reality: 783] and [Reality: UN-138] designation.

Reality: 783

Reality: 783 refers to the mainstream reality of Chapter 6: a Japanese-themed reality invaded by demons. It is one of the source Realities of Kinetic Ore, the home reality of MEGA City and at least three of its syndicates (Fox Clan, River Guard and Peace Syndicate) as well as one of the...

Reality: UN-138

Reality: UN-138 refers to the mainstream reality of Chapter 6: Mini Season 2: A reality featuring a condensed version of Springfield, created as a result of a merge between Reality: 783 and Springfield's reality. Springfield Island is the result of the merger between both realities, taking on...

I have some free time, so I'm watching the shorts now. They seem fine? I'll probably add them when I come back to this

I'd include Treehouse of Horror too, but note them as alternate realities.

I'll think about including Treehouse of Horror… I know there was one that continued a storyline about Maggie being born from Marge and an alien in a previous ToH, so I might just make them their own sections on the thread
 
Is it possible that you could include some supernatural segments in Treehouse of Horror as part of the regular universe?
 
I feel it's a general rule of thumb that Treehouse of Horror episodes aren't canon, so the writers can have more creativity, but I guess I could include non-contradictory segments… again, I'll think about it
