Disney+, if you didnât know, isnât just for kids. With its ownership of the Lucasfilm brand and the Marvel titles, the streaming service offers plenty of grown-up content in its bid to compete with Netflix and Amazonâand weâre not just talking movies. Since launching the service, Disney has used the name recognition of Star Wars and Marvel to launch scores of TV shows, from The Mandalorian to Loki. In the list below, weâve collected the ones we think are the best to watch, from those franchises and beyond.Also: Because Disney+ merged its content with Hulu in 2024, most of the same shows you might like on Hulu (see our list of picks here) are also available to stream on Disney+.Want more?

This helps support our journalism. Learn more.The End of an EraThough it has been more than a year since Taylor Swift brought her epic Eras Tour to an end, fans still canât get enough. In this six-episode docuseries Swift shares her own perspective on the stadium tour, which she describes as a âmassive bonding experienceâ between her and thousands of her beloved fans each night. From the emotional prep it takes to embark on such an adventure to the logistics of pulling it all off, the series delivers a one-of-a-kind experience. And, of course, it wouldnât be a Taylor Swift event without some famous friends like Sabrina Carpenter, Ed Sheeran, and now-fiancĂ© Travis Kelce popping up along the way.Secrets Declassified With David DuchovnyThe truth is out there, and David Duchovny is still searching for answers. Fans of the The X-Files will enjoy this History Channel docuseries, which attempts to uncover the details of the governmentâs most clandestine files, dealing with everything from deep space to dark science and, yes, the possible existence of aliens.Percy Jackson and the OlympiansMore than 20 years after the release of the first book in Rick Riordanâs Percy Jackson series, this small-screen adaptation has been praised for how faithful it remains to Riordanâs beloved words. Being a tween is hard enough, but for 12-year-old Perseus âPercyâ Jackson (Walker Scobell) it gets even harder when he learns he's the son of Poseidon, god of the sea, and that he has pissed off his uncle, Zeus, who believes that Percy has stolen his thunderbolt. (And you thought having a zit was bad!) Fortunately for Percy there is Camp Half-Bloodâa place where demigods like himself can learn to harness their powers and use them for good. Itâs there that Percy learns the whole âwith great power comes great responsibilityâ thing and embraces itâeven if he'd rather be playing video games with his friends. Season 2, which arrived on December 10, sees Percy tasked with undertaking an epic odyssey to save the camp. A third season is in the works.The Beatles AnthologyDisney may be known for its Marvel and Star Wars content, but the streamerâs got a lot of love for the Fab Four, too (see: Get Back, below). This nine-part docuseries, which originally aired on Britainâs ITV in 1995, has been reedited, restored, and expanded for Disney+. The series offers an up-close and quite intimate look at the history of one of the music worldâs most influential rock bands, as told by the men who lived it.Fire and Water: Making the Avatar FilmsFor nearly 30 years, James Cameron has dominated the top of the Highest-Grossing Movies of All-Time chartsâfirst with Titanic (1997), which still holds the No. 4 position, then with Avatar (2009) and Avatar: The Way of Water (2022), which hold the No. 1 and No. 3 spots, respectively. Will Avatar: Fire and Ash, which has earned more than $1 billion just a few weeks into its theatrical run, manage to supplant one of its predecessors? While we wait to learn the answer, Disney+ is taking a deep dive (no pun intended) into the movie series in this two-part docuseries. While the technology behind the films has always been a huge part of their story, from the 3D camera system Cameron and his team developed to the strides made in the art of performance capture, the actors themselves are a major focus of this behind-the-scenes series. Cameron gathers up his key contributors, including stars Zoe Saldaña, Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, and Kate Winslet (who joined in the second film) to discuss howâeven with all that groundbreaking technologyâitâs the actors who make Pandora real.Marvel ZombiesIf Marvel Zombies gives you big The Walking Dead vibes, thereâs a good reason for that: Itâs based on a comic book series that was cocreated by Robert Kirkman, who cocreated The Walking Dead comics. Basically, it imagines a totally new MCU timeline in which a virus has turned most of the worldâs populationâincluding the Avengersâinto zombies. Meanwhile, a determined group of survivors are doing their best to find a cureâand not get bitten. Some of Marvelâs biggest stars have come along for the ride to give voice to their characters, including Florence Pughâs Yelena Belova, David Harbourâs Red Guardian, Elizabeth Olsenâs Wanda Maximoff, Paul Ruddâs Ant-Man, Tessa Thompsonâs Valkyrie, and Hailee Steinfeldâs Kate Bishop.LimitlessLongevity is having a moment, and even onscreen gods like Chris Hemsworth are feeling the pressure to do whatever they can to live the longest, healthiest life possible. In this National Geographic series, whichâoddly enoughâwas cocreated by Darren Aronofsky, the Thor star works with a range of scientists, doctors, and adventurers to push his body to the limit in order to discover its full potential. That he faces it all with his trademark sense of humor, and against the backdrop of some truly breathtaking locations around the world, makes it all the more entertaining and inspiring.Hurricane Katrina: Race Against TimeâIn order to prevent something, youâve got to understand why it happened in the first place.â Thatâs the lesson one New Orleans resident learned from surviving Hurricane Katrina, which devastated the city 20 years ago. In this fascinating Nat Geo documentary, people who survived the stormâplus scientists and authorities who worked to save the lives of those who were at the center of itârecount the destruction the storm brought with it. It laments the lack of government response to an American city in need while paying tribute to the heroic actions of everyday people who came together to save New Orleans and the resilience of the people who still call the city home today.Eyes of WakandaDisney is betting big on the Black Panther universe. Just one month after the premiere of the live-action series Ironheart (see below) came this new animated anthology series that delves even further into the Wakanda mythology. Two-time Oscar nominee Ryan Cooglerâthe man behind both Black Panther moviesâdeveloped this four-episode prequel in which the Hatut Zaraze, aka Wakandaâs âWar Dogs,â embark on adventure-filled missions to retrieve long-lost Vibranium artifacts.IronheartRyan Coogler is responsible for what is arguably the best movie in the MCU (2018âs Black Panther), and now heâs executive producing one of its most interesting small-screen endeavors. Playwright Chinaka Hodge created this series, which picks up right after the events featured in 2022âs Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. It stars Dominique Thorne, who reprises her role as Riri Williams, aka Ironheart, a brilliant MIT student who has successfully managed to create a Tony Starkâlike suit of armor. It gives her the kind of invincibility that changes her outlook on the worldâand leads her down a pothole-filled path that could see her heroic character go the way of the antihero in a way that critics have described as being similar to The Sopranosâ Tony Soprano and Breaking Badâs Walter White.Doctor WhoSpring 2024 marked the beginning of a new era for Doctor Who fans when Ncuti Gatwa was officially handed the sonic screwdriver to take the legendary sci-fi series in new directions as the Fifteenth Doctor. He did it all over again with a second season, which aired a game-changing finale in May that has viewers wondering where the Doctor will be headed next. Russell T. Davies is also back to oversee all the time-traveling shenanigans as the latest incarnation of the Time Lord journeys through space and time with companion Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson), and new addition Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu). The BBCâs partnership with Disney+ ended in October, so the upcoming Christmas specialâand future seasonsâwill be streamed elsewhere.Star Wars: Tales of the UnderworldThere are two types of people in this world: those who think there are more Star Wars movies and TV shows that one person needs and those who are counting down the days until The Mandalorian & Grogu arrives in theaters next year. If youâre part of that latter group, youâre in good companyâand have plenty of series to choose from, including this six-part anthology that follows 2022âs Tales of the Jedi and last yearâs Tales of the Empire (see below). In true Star Wars style, it tells the story of two villains, former assassin/bounty hunter Asajj Ventress and outlaw Cad Bane, who form an unlikely alliance in an attempt to build new lives for themselves, until Bane catches up with an old colleague, who has switched sides to become a law-abiding marshal. Dark versus light battle it out once more.AndorAndorâwhich scored five well-deserved Emmys, including one for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Seriesâis something of a miracle. Created by Tony Gilroy, the two-time Oscar nominee behind Michael Clayton and a writer on the Bourne movies, itâs the origin story of one of Rogue One's most beloved characters, Cassian Andor (Diego Luna). Set in the early years of the Rebellion, it charts Andorâs path to becoming one of the most integral of the Rebels. With a supporting cast that includes Fiona Shaw and Stellan SkarsgĂ„rd, it features a fantastic score from Nicholas Britell (Moonlight, Succession). After spending so much time with Mandalorians and Jedis, itâs a welcome reprieve and perhaps the closest thing to prestige TV the Star Wars universe has released.Daredevil: Born AgainDaredevil fans were devastated when the original Netflix series was canceled in 2018, but Charlie Cox never strayed far from his title role for too long. He popped up as Matt Murdock/Daredevil in MCU movies (Spider-Man: No Way Home) and TV shows (She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Echo, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man), all the while biding his time until his eponymous series came back. Seven years and one massive overhaul later, fans seem to think it was worth the wait. Born Again sees Cox facing off against crime lord turned mayoral candidate Wilson Fisk (Vincent D'Onofrio) once more. Thereâs also a darkness to the series that seems to borrow a page from Christopher Nolanâs Dark Knight playbook, though itâs not as elegant in its execution. Still, itâs a solid crime drama that sets itself apart from many other MCU series thanks to its more mature tone. Whether you were into the Netflix series or not, it might be time to dig in. A second season is arriving in March 2026 and Disney has already greenlit a third.Win or LoseWill Forte, Rhea Seehorn, Ian Chen, Melissa Villaseñor, and Izaac Wang are among the dozens of actors and comedians who lend their voices to Pixarâs very first original animated series. Over the course of eight episodes, this charming series plays out the same events that occur in the week leading up to a middle school softball teamâs championship game from the perspective of various characters, including a wise bead of sweat known as Sweaty (and voiced by comedian Jo Firestone). If the title sounds familiar to you, it might be because the series created some controversy back in December when it was revealed that a transgender characterâs storyline had been cut from the series. Disneyâs reasoning? âWhen it comes to animated content for a younger audience, we recognize that many parents would prefer to discuss certain subjects with their children on their own terms and timeline.âYour Friendly Neighborhood Spider-ManFour years after it was first announced, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man arrived early this year. The animated series dares to imagine what kind of chaos might have ensued if Peter Parker (Hudson Thames) had been mentored by baddie Norman Osborn/Green Goblin (Colman Domingo) instead of Tony Stark/Iron Man. Oh, the horror (and fun)! A second season has already been confirmed, though likely wonât premiere until late 2026.Goosebumps: The VanishingFor more than 30 years, R. L. Stineâs Goosebumps books have fed the nightmares of young readersâmuch to their delight (well, usually). Now Disney is inspiring a whole new generation of horror lovers with this fun series, which follows the lives of a group of high schoolers who begin to unravel the terrifying truth about a decades-old murderâand the roles their nearest and dearest might have played in itâin their otherwise picture-perfect hometown. The always-affable Justin Long starred as a teacher who may or may not be possessed in season 1 of this anthology series. Its second, and final, season brought an extended title (Goosebumps: The Vanishing), a new cast (including Friends star David Schwimmer), and a whole new set of nightmares.Star Wars: Skeleton CrewDo you love Star Wars but wish it had more Warriors/The Wizard of Oz/The Brave Little Toaster energy? Lucasfilm has heard your cries and is here to oblige. For Skeleton Crew, they assembled a gang of four youths who get lost in the Star Wars universe and try to find their way home with the help of Jude Law, who plays an âenigmatic scoundrel" named Jod. OK, so Star Wars probably already has enough of those, but who cares? The real treasure is the friends you'll make along the way.Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the GalaxySig Greebling (Stranger Thingsâ Gaten Matarazzo) discovers an ancient relic that alters the history of the universeâturning Jar Jar Binks into a lightsaber-wielding Sith and Luke Skywalker into Just Some Guy. With the help of a wise old Jedi, Sig must do what he can to piece things back together. Sure, the plotline has all the makings of a typical Star Wars story, but with Mark Hamill and Ahmed Best lending their voices to the minifig versions of the characters that made them famous, it also does so in a way that pokes just the right amount of fun at the canon.Agatha All AlongAfter Kathryn Hahn became the (not-so-surprising) breakout star of 2021âs WandaVision miniseries (more on that below), MCU fans were thrilledâbut, again, not surprisedâwhen she nabbed her own series with Agatha All Along. The long-awaited spinoff takes place three years after the events of WandaVision, with witch Agatha (now stripped of all her magical powers) enlisting a teenager (Joe Locke) and a new coven to help her regain her status as HWIC. Aubrey Plaza, Patti LuPone, Sasheer Zamata, and Debra Jo Rupp round out the stellar cast.BlueyYes, Bluey is technically a childrenâs show. But everyone is welcome to enjoy this animated series from Australia, which centers around an endlessly curious blue heeler pup named Bluey and her family (mom, dad, and little sister). The showâs brevityâeach episode clocks in at around eight minutes, and there are also mini episodes that are half that run timeâis part of what makes it such a fun and easy watch. But the exploration of everyday feelings and emotions that everyone can relate to (humans, too) have made it a bona fide cultural phenomenon. Rose Byrne, Natalie Portman, and Eva Mendes are among the stars who have lent their voices to the show.Star Wars: Young Jedi AdventuresIf helping to raise a new generation of Star Wars geeks was even a small part of your reason for having kids, this animated series, which is basically the Star Wars version of Muppet Babies, is a great place to start their education. Set during the High Republic era, approximately 200 years before the events of The Phantom Menace, it follows a group of young JedisâJedi Litesâwho are sometimes stumbling their way through learning the ways of the Force. Like any good kid series, it also teaches important lessons about life and making a positive difference in the world. Season 3 dropped in December.The AcolyteA Jedi turning to the Dark Side is a concept as old as the Star Wars franchise itself, and not something fans have given much thought to in terms of the âwhy.â But this Disney+ series dares to ask that question, and plays out a bit like a true crime procedural in a sci-fi landscape. Carrie-Anne Moss stars as a Jedi Master, and if her character seems a bit like Trinity from The Matrix series, thatâs by design. Series creator Leslye Headland told Empire that the character owes much of its inspiration to the Wachowskisâ movies and that Mossâ Indara is basically âTrinity with a lightsaber.â In August, Disney announced that one season is all weâre going to get of The Acolyte, so savor all eight episodes.Star Wars: Tales of the EmpireItâs been more than five years since Disney released the last Star Wars movie, and The Mandalorian & Grogu won't arrive until May 22. Fortunately, Disney+ has plenty of TV series to fill the void, including this animated anthology that adds new stories about the franchiseâs Galactic empire, in the same time period in which the original trilogy existed. It follows the very different journeys of two characters: Morgan Elsbeth (Diana Lee Inosanto), a Force-sensitive human and member of the Nightsister coven who, after being one of the few of her people to survive the Clone Wars, is seeking revenge. Meanwhile, Barriss Offee (Meredith Salenger) is a former Jedi who is questioning her own disillusionment with the order and what her road ahead looks like. Both are forced to make decisions that will change their individual destinies, and the galaxy far, far away with it.X-Men '97Of all the big-budget X-Men movies and TV shows that have existed over the years, itâs hard to believe that a cartoon series from the â90s is one of the most beloved entries. But itâs trueâand has a near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes score to prove it. When the revival arrived in 2024, many of the original voice actors returned to reclaim their characters, who must learn how to navigate a world without Professor Xavier to guide them. The events of this series pick up just one year after the point where the original show (which you can read more about below) ended.Renegade NellLouisa Harland shines as Nell Jackson, the renegade of the title, who accidentally becomes one of the most feared highwaywomen in 18th-century England after she is framed for murder. Of course, this being a Disney series, itâs best to expect something a little magicalâwhich in Nellâs case is Billy Blind, a magical sprite sent to help her realize her true destiny. What is surprising is that the series, which is perfectly suited to teens and their families, was created by Sally Wainwright, the brilliant mind behind such adult-themed series as Happy Valley and Gentleman Jack.DinosaursNineties kids no doubt remember this sitcom about a family of dinosaurs. Earl Sinclair is a fortysomething megalosaurus living with his family in Pangaea circa 60,000,000 BC. While his days are spent working as a tree pusher (yep, he pushes over trees), he lives for his family: wife Fran and kids Robbie, Charlene, and Baby Sinclair, whose running gag of hitting his dad over the head with a frying pan and shouting âGotta love me!â never gets old. Not even three decades on.EchoThis Marvel series continues the studioâs recent trend of shining a spotlight on its fearlessâand complicatedâfemale characters. In this case, that character is Maya Lopez (Alaqua Cox), aka Echo, who is best known to audiences as a baddie from Hawkeye. But over the course of its relatively short five episodes, we learn why Mayaâone of the MCUâs few deaf charactersâmust reconcile the events of her past and reconnect with her Native American roots in order to confront the future she has created for herself. Cox may be a relative newcomer to Hollywood, but she deftly manages to shoulder the weight of an entire MCU series.Behind the AttractionDisneyland, Walt Disneyâs very first theme park, opened in Anaheim, California, in 1955. In the 70 years since, Disney parks have become a worldwide phenomenon and inspired rabid fan bases who make annual (if not more frequent) pilgrimages to these so-called Happiest Places on Earth. But what goes on behind the scenes? From the creation of major attractions like the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean to its bustling food scene (Dole Whip, anyone?), this docuseries goes behind the scenes of the worldâs most famous amusement parks.LokiThe MCU is exhaustingly huge. Yet while Loki is undoubtedly part of that universe, the series could just as easily work as a stand-alone piece, and it's all the more fun and surprising as a result. There are enough plot twists, silly one-liners, and time-travel antics to keep everyone entertained, and even a wisecracking alligator. If that doesnât do it, Loki has a visual effects budget that would put most Hollywood blockbusters to shame. Sure, itâs not the most intellectually stimulating show out there, but Tom Hiddleston does a great job of turning Loki into a fairly complex, interesting character. No word yet on whether there might be a third season in Lokiâs futureâand even Hiddleston is in the dark. âI truly donât know,â he admitted to Variety in 2024, adding: âThere have been other times when I thought that it was the end and I have been mistaken. But if this is the end, I'm so proud of where we ended up.âDaredevilBefore Disney+ became the home for all of Marvelâs TV content, Netflix was the place to find itâbeginning with Daredevil, in which blind attorney Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) spends his days seeking justice and his nights looking for revenge as a masked vigilante attempting to rid his Hellâs Kitchen neighborhood of its criminal element. While the series ended in 2018, Cox has reprised his role for a new series, Daredevil: Born Again, which arrived last year (see above).AhsokaWe know what youâre thinking: Wait, another Star Wars series? And we donât blame you for asking the question. But for old-school franchise fans, Ahsoka just might surprise you. Rosario Dawson reprises the title role as Ahsoka Tano, a former Jedi who studied under Anakin Skywalker, which she first played in season 2 of The Mandalorian. Here, Ahsoka sets off on a journey to locate Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen, Madsâ brother)âa master manipulator who seems to be on a mission to become the grand ruler of the galaxy. A second season is scheduled to begin production in April, and will welcome Hayden Christensenâs Anakin Skywalker back into the Star Wars fold.The Wonder YearsIn 2021, writer-producer Saladin K. Patterson (Frasier, The Bernie Mac Show) rebooted the award-winning, and much beloved, series The Wonder Years for a new generation. Don Cheadle narrates the adventures of Dean Williams (Elisha âEJâ Williams), as he comes of age in Montgomery, Alabama, in the final years of the Civil Rights Movement. Both seasons of the worthwhile series are now streamingâas are all six seasons of the original series, which premiered in 1988.Kizazi Moto: Generation FireWhile Black Panther may have gotten an official sequel with 2022âs Wakanda Forever (which is, of course, available to stream on Disney+), this animated anthology series is in many ways a spiritual successor to that Oscar-winning MCU flick. More than a dozen up-and-coming African storytellers were handpicked to write and/or direct these 10 short films, which build on the makersâ cultures and histories to paint a fascinating, gorgeously animatedâand often dystopianâpicture of Afrofuturism.American Born ChineseOscar winnersâand Everything Everywhere All at Once costarsâMichelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan reunite for this Disney+ original series. Jin Wang (Ben Wang) is your typical teenager whoâs just trying to get through the day of dealing with high school social hierarchies. But his life is forever altered when heâs asked to serve as a mentor to Wei-Chen (Jimmy Liu), a foreign exchange student who is hiding some pretty big secrets. Like that heâs actually on an otherworldly mission from the heavenly realm and has chosen Jin to serve as his guide. Part coming-of-age tale and part mythological fantasy, the single-season series is a formidable adaptation of Gene Yangâs graphic novel.Star Wars: VisionsFor a franchise as varied and diverse as Star Wars, sometimes its output can feel a little same-y. Thatâs not the case with Visions. The point of the anthology series is to provide âall-new, creativeâ takes on the Star Wars universe. The first series, which premiered in 2021, featured nine installments from some of the best anime studios in Japan, including Kamikaze Douga and Trigger. The second anthology, which arrived in 2023, broadens the scope further, incorporating work from studios in India, Ireland, Spain, Chile, France, South Africa, the US, and the UK. If youâre looking for the best one-off tales from the Star Wars universe, look no further.The MandalorianThe Mandalorian was, and is, exactly what the Star Wars franchise needed. Everything about this Jon Favreau series feels like classic TVâfrom the episodic adventures to the cameos. Set in the outer reaches of the galaxy, it follows a moody, masked Mandalorian bounty hunter (WIRED cover star Pedro Pascal) and really delivers on the hype with its retro-futuristic robots, salty Space Western vibes, lack of Skywalker baggage, and, of course, Grogu (aka Baby Yoda). The Mandalorian really set the tone for what a great Star Wars series could be, and while not every subsequent show has been as good, others, like Andor, have lived up to the precedent it setâand proved Star Wars stories can make for great TV. There's still no official word on a fourth season, but there is one more exciting adventure on the horizon: a movie, The Mandalorian & Grogu, which arrives Memorial Day weekend.Ms. MarvelWith Ms. Marvel, Disney manages to combine its knack for producing coming-of-age tween fare with its new role as caretaker of the MCU. Iman Vellani charms as Kamala Khan, an Avengers-obsessed high schooler from Jersey City who feels like an outsider in most areas of her life. But when a gold bangle arrives from her grandmother in Pakistan, Kamala begins to realize that all the time she's spent fantasizing about what life would be like with superpowers might have been preparing her for real life. With one foot in the teen drama world and the other in the comic book universe, Ms. Marvelâwhich just happens to feature Marvelâs first Muslim superheroâmarks yet another admirable step forward for the company in both innovation and inclusion. In 2023, Vellaniâs Ms. Marvel made the leap to the big screen to star alongside Brie Larson in The Marvels.Obi-Wan KenobiEwan McGregor has not always had the kindest words for the Star Wars prequels in which he first played the role of Obi-Wan Kenobiâa role he inherited from Alec Guinness, who also had plenty of less-than-favorable things to say about the franchise. So it was somewhat surprising when Lucasfilm announced that McGregor would be donning his Jedi gear again to star in a stand-alone Star Wars series for Disney+. (Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy has already said there will not be a second season.) In many ways, however, it allowed McGregor and former costar Hayden Christensen to course-correct some of their earlier work, as it follows a downtrodden Obi-Wan attempting to process his personal and professional disappointment over losing Anakin Skywalker (Christensen) to the Dark Side.The Beatles: Get BackIn January 1969, just more than a year before they announced they were breaking up, the Beatles allowed a film crew unprecedented access to the creative process and recording of Let It Be, which would be their final studio album. Fifty years later, Oscar-winning director Peter Jackson was presented with the nearly 60 hours of film footage and more than 150 hours of audio that resulted from this project, and he remastered it and turned it into a three-part docuseries. Whether youâre already a Beatles fan or not, the documentary is a fascinating look at the creative process of one of the music worldâs most influential bands as they work against the clock to finish recording an album, decide to have a free concert on their labelâs rooftop, and occasionally butt heads. Knowing what the subjects do not knowâthat this will be the last time they perform live together or record an albumâonly adds to the projectâs intimacy. The miniseries won all five Emmys it was nominated for in 2022, including Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series.Moon KnightOscar Isaac brings yet another marquee name to Marvelâs growing roster of all-star talents with Moon Night. Here, Isaac plays a man with dissociative identity disorder, giving us not one but three distinct characters: mercenary Mark Spector, British gift shop employee Steven Grant, and the mysteriousâand seemingly ominousâJake Lockley. Ultimately, he must face off against himself to get the answers heâs seeking. For Moon Knight, Isaac told Empire that he was thrilled to be able to do something âreally fucking nutty on a major stageââand he delivers.The Muppet ShowWhile The Muppet Show, which ran for five seasons between 1976 and 1981, is considered a piece of classic television today, it wasnât always smooth sailing for creator Jim Henson. Henson produced two one-off Muppet specials that were intended to take the show into prime time, but neither came to fruition. Fortunately, the Muppets did have a recurring gig in âThe Land of Gorchâ sketches that aired during Saturday Night Liveâs first season, as viewers of Jason Reitman's Saturday Night learned. When SNL became a hit, Henson knew that there was a potentially massive audience for an adult-oriented Muppet show (not to mention celebrity connections to entice plenty of A-list names to host). The rest is Muppet history. And there's a new chapter in the works. In September, Seth Rogen confirmed that heâll be partnering with Sabrina Carpenter to revive the original series for a Disney+ special later this year.The PunisherThe Punisher is yet another Netflix-turned-Disney+ Marvel series that also happens to be a spinoff of Daredevil. Like Daredevil, the Punisher (real name: Frank Castle, played by Jon Bernthal) is a vigilante who seems to relish exacting revenge, regardless of the results. He and Daredevil operate within the same universe, and while the Punisher sort of admires Daredevilâs quest for true justice, Daredevil despises the Punisherâs by-any-means-necessary methods. Bernthal brings an intensity to the role that, while undoubtedly violent, also has a sense of humor about it.Boy Meets WorldIf ABCâs TGIF lineup wasnât a part of your night as a kid, you clearly didnât grow up in the â90s. But Disney+ is happy to right that wrong by housing all seven seasons of the teen sitcom in its library. Corey Matthews (Ben Savage) deals with the ups and downs of growing up and ever-evolving relationships with friends and familyâplus that one teacher, Mr. Feeny (William Daniels)âwho always has the right answer to your problems, whether you like it or not. As the show progressed and the kids grew up, serious issues like drugs and sex were thrown into the mix, which didnât always please the network. When the show aired on the original Disney Channel, a few episodes werenât included in the lineup because of the more mature subject matter. You can also check out all three seasons of Girl Meets World, the series reboot (which features Corey as the parent and Mr. Feeny) when youâre done.Jessica JonesJust about six months after Daredevil arrived on the scene, Netflix took another chance on a Marvel property with Jessica Jones. In this dark dive into the world of superheroes, Krysten Ritter plays a private investigator who gave up her days as a superhero after a major catastrophe. But you canât deny who you are, as Jessica discovers when it seems like every case that comes her way forces her to confront her pastâand the supervillain Kilgrave (David Tennant), who turned her into a shell of her former self.HawkeyeYet another in an ever growing string of spinoff TV shows from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Hawkeye gives some long overdue attention to Jeremy Rennerâs Clint Barton, who in many ways has often seemed like the forgotten Avenger. The supernaturally skilled archer is in most of the ensemble Avengers films, but this Disney+ series marks his first solo outing. The show sees Hawkeye teaming up with Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld), a precocious twentysomething who shares his skills for slinging arrows but lacks his eye for danger. Itâs set during the holidays, and there are shades of Die Hard as the eponymous character tries to save the day and make it home in time for Christmas. Let the arguments about whether itâs a Christmas TV show begin.Monsters at WorkMonsters at Work is the Monsters, Inc. spinoff you didnât know you needed. It picks up the action six months after the end of the iconic Pixar movieâafter Sully and his friend and colleague Mike (a giant green eyeball) have reworked the Monstropolis energy grid to run on laughter instead of childrenâs screams.The Bad BatchYes, Disney really is milking its Star Wars properties for all theyâre worth. The Bad Batch is an animated spinoff series set in the aftermath of the Clone Wars, between the prequel trilogy and the original trilogy in the overarching timeline. It follows a group of clone soldiers with genetic defects that give them individual traits and personalities, making them well suited to taking on daring mercenary missions. All three seasons are available to stream.WandaVisionThis slow-burning sitcom parody is unexpectedly compelling. For the first couple of episodes, even hardened Marvel fans will have very little idea whatâs going on, as Avengers Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany) live out an idyllic family life in black-and-white 1950s suburbia. Quickly, it becomes clear that something is wrong in the quiet town of Westview, as the world of the show ties into the wider MCU. Olsen reprises her role in Sam Raimiâs Doctor Strange sequel, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which picks up right after the events of WandaVision.The Falcon and the Winter SoldierAfter the surreal sitcom stylings of WandaVision, the second Marvel show to land on Disney+ covers more familiar ground. It's an action-packed thriller that follows Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) and Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) as they try to fill the void left by Captain America in the months after the events of Avengers: Endgame.Star Wars RebelsAccessible for kids and adults alikeâand undoubtedly one of the best Star Wars TV series on Disney+âthis animated series follows a group of rebels led by the former Jedi Kanan Jarrus (Freddie Prinze Jr.) and featuring his force-sensitive Padawan, Ezra Bridger (Ezra Gray). Fan favorite Ahsoka Tano (Ashley Eckstein) is another regular character across its four seasons, which do a neat job of fleshing out the time between the end of the prequel trilogy and the beginning of the original one.The SimpsonsHave you got some time on your hands? Well, the 37 seasons of The Simpsons currently streaming on Disney+ should keep you busy. What can be said about one of the longest-runningâand arguably most famousâanimated TV shows ever made? While the first season is a little patchy by todayâs standards, and there are ongoing arguments about when the show went from essential viewing to neglected cash cow, whatever your view, there are literally weeks worth of entertainment here.X-Men: The Animated SeriesIf you really want to nerd out, this critically acclaimed animated X-Men series from the â90s is worth a watch. In fact, the first two films in the live-action movie franchise drew heavily from this cartoon, which serves as a nice reminder of what can be done with rich source material.Marvelâs Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.This seven-season series, which is for serious Marvel fans, revolves around S.H.I.E.L.D.âs less super agents, led by Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg). The first season takes a while to warm up, but it really hits its stride in its second and especially third seasons, and it eventually ramps up with a complex plot that ties into the films.Agent CarterAgent Carter is a better show than Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but it struggled to find an audience during its two seasons. Hayley Atwell reprises her role as Peggy Carter from several MCU films in this 1940s-set series, where she doubles as an agent for the US government while helping Howard Stark (Tonyâs dad) out of more than one jam. The two seasons stretch to only 18 episodes, so itâs a quick watch, but one worth making the time for.Inside PixarThereâs a lot of behind-the-scenes content on Disney+. These are short clips that, in another age, would have been confined to the DVD extras menu. But this series of 20-minute documentaries on different Pixar movies offers a fascinating insight into the animated hit machine.What If âŠ?Hereâs an animated series based on one simple question: What if? The Watcher, played by Jeffrey Wright, is an extraterrestrial being who observes the multiverse, occasionally making minor changes to influence events.

The first episode follows an alternate timeline in which Steve Rogers remains a scrawny sidekick and Agent Carter becomes a Union Jack-draped super soldier. Actors from the films reprise their roles, including Josh Brolin as Thanos, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, and Karen Gillan as Nebula.
