They said sometime this year in their Disney Investor Day webcast if I'm not wrong.
Well apparently the only show I've found that I can't stream is the Mandalorian. I dunno why. The Jeff goldblum show streams fine but Mandalorian will not at all. I'm wondering if it has something to do with Dolby Vision or something, but my X1X has that enabled and everything should be fine. Really frustrating. I wanted to watch the episodes tonight and now I can't unless I watch them in my phone :/
Probably why I can't find anything. I thought a name and some info had been put out for it. Ok, thanks.
Maybe try messaging the support, I briefly had trouble with Atmos content making the sound completely cut off for everything in the app and I'd have to restart the app and couldn't watch any Atmos content. Sent them a message through the Feedback on their website came back an hour or two later and everything was working again.

I hate that. Apple TV+ also releases all the new episodes of their show on Fridays. I mean, can't they space them out over the week? I have like 5 new episodes of shows that I watch that all drop at the same time on Friday lol

Most streaming shows release on a Friday for some reason. Amazon and Netflix release most of their originals (and usually their biggest ones) on Friday. The Witcher is releasing on the 20th and I'm glad Mando is releasing on the Wednesday instead of Friday that week due to Rise of Skywalker but that is still going to a be a busy week of content.
I like them putting out all their new shows on Friday. Gives you a bunch of stuff to watch over the weekend, and it means I don't have to keep checking every single day to see if something new came out.
By the way, that Imagineering story episode 3 ends in a fucking bummer.

HBO has exclusive rights to stream The Mighty Ducks and a few other live-action Disney movies. Disney made the deal back in 2009, before they had decided on making their own streaming service. Up until Disney+ was decided upon, Disney made various exclusive deals with the different streaming services, since exclusive deals are worth the most money. There are also a number of FOX films that HBO has the rights to for another few years, from a deal made before Disney's acquisition.
Thanks guys Dreamwriter and zulux21
Just watched Up for the first time
I love this service. So wholesome
I wonder if they'll even have more mature content as time goes on

disney+ will be family friendly
hulu will be more mature content.
Time Warner has search light till 2022 I believe as well.
Aside from content not available due to licensing agreements, what is on your Disney+ wishlist? I would love to see a Donald Duck collection similar to the DVD sets they put out years ago.
That is most companies and some are even worse. Disney provides me a much needed escape from reality, they do bad stuff sure, buts it's like how people still use Amazon for convince even though their workers get treated like shit.
If you don't want to support Disney that's fine and your choice but you shouldn't make everyone else the bad guy if they want to enjoy the content, theme parks etc.
You can see all of them here:
What's the story with the items that aren't with another service and taking for ever to roll out?
Other than Spider-Man and X-Men, what Fox Kids shows does Disney own? I know they don't own Bobby's World (unfortunately).
I can only think of four Fox Kids shows that Disney owns. (other than X-Men and Spiderman). What else am I forgetting?
"Fox's Peter Pan & the Pirates"
"Attack of the Killer Tomatoes"
"Life with Louie".
"The Tick (animated series)"

I don't think it is supported by many devices right now, works on my Apple TV 4K but not my LG app for instance.
I noticed that have all the Spider-Man cartoons except Spectacular. They need to get on that.
They'd have to license that from Sony. Hopefully they'll work out a deal for the MCU Spidey movies too.
One of the key benefits of having a streaming service full of your own content is not having to pay licensing fees to third parties once all the rights are re-obtained. I don't really see Disney going and licensing 3rd party content.
I think they would make exceptions for stuff like Spider-Man and Indiana Jones that are haw I'll tied to their brands but yeah I don't think it will become as prevalent as Netflix or Hulu.
That being said they are licensing some third party originals such as Dairy of a Female President (from CBS) and Earth to Ned (from Jim Henson Company) so that shows they are willing to pay outside studios even if for right now that's only original content.
Indiana Jones they'll probably just make another bid to obtain full rights for some point down the line, I imagine. I don't see them sticking with Paramount forever.
I didn't know they were picking up new content from outside production studios though.
The first Mighty Ducks and the superhero series are on Disney+.
They still license a lot of third party content for Hulu, and I wouldn't expect that to change. It's possible you'll get a little bit of D+ content tagged onto a deal like that.

Well today is the 25th and Princess and the Frog is still available to stream so that stuff about the meta-data with expiration dates didn't pan out.
It's almost like there's a reason why the UI didn't surface this clearly incorrect data and people fishing round who don't know what they're talking about are full of shit (see "D+ won't support Chromebooks" nonsense from a month ago).

I ended up having to make a spotify playlist for songs from musicals titled: "Music from musicals that I end up liking because my kid now watches them ten times a day and damn if they aren't catchy."
Pair of kings, Motor city, The Muppet show(original), and Bill Bixby's incredible hulk
Watched Simpsons all week-end and unsubbed this morning.
Except for a couple of cartoons filled with childhood nostalgia that would seem weird to watch when my GF is at home and the Simpsons, there's not much in there for me. It was fun while it lasted though.
That said I had a lot of issues a few hours in where it would just start to lag incessantly like every 20 seconds it would stop to load. I tried Netflix right after that which worked perfectly well, so IDK.
