Any gems on disney+?

If you're into the Disney Parks & the history behind them - their Imagineering show is compelling, though predictably it paints everything in a very favorable light. It's essentially a commercial for Disney World, but a really really good one.
The recording of Hamilton is also super cool, if you have any interest in musicals.
The High School Musical series is also better than you'd expect.

The making of Frozen 2 is pretty spectacular. Gives great insight into just how difficult making one of those films is.
Tons.
Flight of the Navigator
Flight to Mars - old Disneyland "Tomorrowland" documentary
Walt and El Grupo - Doc about Walt's mental breakdown, excuse me... "goodwill trip" to South America for the making of Three Caballeros
Frank and Ollie - Doc about 2 of Walt's main animators in the early animated movies
Waking Sleeping Beauty - Doc about the resurgence of Disney Animation and the new Golden Era 1989-1996 era.
Duck Tales (2017 series)
There's really a ton of great stuff on there.

Gravity Falls. Not the Mandalorian.
Really, the backlog library is fantastic of course. The new stuff is pretty bad almost across the board.

I actually enjoyed the High School Musical series more than I thought I would, so you could always check that out.
Don't they have a proper HD version of the Black Cauldron on Disney+?
Or so I heard. Wish they'd put it on BD. :/

Does it explain why the film is so terrible? Watched it with the family last night and we all hated it.
It wasn't mentioned already but you need to go and Watch "A Goofy Movie"
They have all the Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors in their own subcategory which is cool.
Sticking with the Halloween theme, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mister Toad is good for the Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
Also, I always throw out Black Hole because it is a short, tight story with great music and a send off to old Hollywood disaster style movies.

You can rewatch all the animated classic Disney movies. Aladdin and Lion King look amazing in 4K HDR.
And watch Tangled a bunch of times and it's series which is apparently good.
For some weird reason, they still haven't made Moana in 4K available yet in europe. I already have the original blu-ray but wanna see it again in 4K.

they had several focus groups with other Disney directors and writers because a lot of areas of the movie had no connective tissue or there wasn't enough exposition to inform the audience about the new location/people as well as the voice that kept coming to Elsa. So essentially they had chunks of ideas but struggled to connect them. Also the songs went through a ton of rewrites.
It is shockingly honest and shows you all the developmental issues the film went through.
+1 for New DucktalesDUCKTALES 2017.
Yes, this needs to be reposted again. Such a great show. Actually Disney JR/XD has a lot of great shows if you haven't had cable in a while, most of which have been mentioned: the Avengers Earth's Mightiest, Duck Tales, Tangled the Series, Gravity Falls, Phineas and Ferb, and that isn't even getting to the old school goodness of the classic Duck Tales, Gargoyles, etc.
If you're watching Mandalorian I assume you also have at least a passing interest in Star Wars, and even though they have yet to put on the older Tartokovsky version they do have all of the newer Clone Wars. I'd even recommend Rebels (haven't gotten to Resistance).
The Disney Nature stuff is all pretty good if you can get past some of the embellished personification of the animals.
The Muppet movies (even the new ones) are always great. The Muppets series from ABC a few years back was greatly underappreciated.
Free Solo
I haven't watched much of the National Geographic stuff to be honest, but there's a lot of it and many of them sound interesting.
I enjoyed Encore (one of their original series) but it definitely requires an appreciation for musical theater.

The Tangled TV series has no right to be as good as it is, but its really really good.
The Three Caballeros show was only ever released on D+ in the US, but is also great.

Another vote for bluey. My kids bloody love it, and as a parent... Well, yeah, I really like it as well. Just one of those special shows where you know the people making it just get it.
Hamilton is a must-see.
The Jeff Goldblum show is pretty entertaining.
Oh, and that spin-off of High School Musical is better than it has any right to be. (as long as you keep in mind that the target audience is still teens).
Then there is still the whole Disney Vault.
Gargoyles, Recess, etc, etc...
Also, having all of the Simpsons seasons (now in 4:3) is worth the subscription price alone.

what Kinds of things are you interested in? Most of the options are 'family friendly'
Of the 'new' Disney original movies, I really liked 'Togo' its a true story about a Alaskan sled dog starring William Dafoe.
imagineering Story is a really in-depth series taking a look at the parks.
I also enjoyed the Pixar spark shorts
in more mainstream releases, Hidden Figures is pretty great.
Willow is a fun little fantasy movie from the 80's, one of George Lucas' non-Star Wars films. They are making a sequel series for it so wouldn't be bad to watch the original.
I would go and watch all the old Disney "how to" videos. They hold up so well. I was busting up laughing watching this.
Also Three Caballeros has incredible music and is still beautifully animated.

It's October. If you're into their classic TV shows I'm going to recommend So Weird. It's a kids show that often punches above its weight. The comedy episodes are fucking terrible, but the serious ones and anything lore or music heavy is fantastic. I'd maybe check out "Family Reunion" and then "Rebecca". If you like those, watch the first two seasons in production order, not the order listed. The show references past episodes but you won't get that if you watch it in the order they aired.
Season 3 is a mess for many reasons. The main actress left, as did the showrunners, and with them went the Irish mythos and attention to detail.
