The Disney+ thread of ever-growing entertainment monopolies

Octopus Prime

AFAIK, it is in Canada and not for all y’all’s.

Disney Plus is, like, the only streaming service that’s better in Canada

Except when it comes to Owl House, it seems, because it looks like we don't have those 5 new episodes the US has.

But now I can FINALLY catch up on Bob's Burgers since I last watched Season 7 and till now it only had seasons 9 and 10, and I wasn't skipping poor season 8 just because of the poor judgement of some upper management type.

I’m also kind of frustrated that we didn’t get the non TAS X-Men cartoons, but… well…

I feel compensated

Okay, I get why she's a Hawaiian girl now, but why is her obnoxious friend some kind of talking weasel...?

I made a Doogie Howser joke last night, so I feel like I summoned this into being.

I mean even if you did drop Amphibia for Owl House, you backed the right horse.
You take this back. Amphibia is the fucking queen of the castle.


Also, you know what is awesome but i haven't heard anyone talk about? The Mysterious Benedict Society. It's incredibly cool and charming, and properly mysterious and paranormal for an investigation show. great cast too.

Completely agree. There are several extremely strong child actors in that show, my 6 year-old is totally into it, it's dark at times without causing nightmares, and the design elements and wit are strong enough that I enjoy watching it with her.

Can anyone else in Canada access the STAR content?

I seem to have the stuff that was US exclusive, like X-Men Evolution, but STAR has disappeared; not sure if that's a me problem or a weird hiccup in the system

According to... what I presume was a human (albeit one on the verge of failing the turing test), my issue with Disney + not showing me CUSSING SHOWS is a widescpread one and it's being worked on

So a huge number of Canadians turned on their kid filter in their account at the same time? Weird country. =p

Any child can look through any window and see someone watching American Horror Story or It’s Alpways Sunny in Philadelphia at any time.

It’s the only way to be safe

I decided to make the most of STAR inexplicably disappearing by watching some of the Marvel cartoons we don’t get in Canada.

And either by letting acceptance into my heart, or else Benjamin J Grimm (where he lives rent-free anyway), STAR came back and now I can watch all kinds of shows with cusses and blood.

Disney+ released a sequel/reimagining of Home Alone where the “burglars” the Kevin stand-in is torturing are a low-income couple about to lose their home who are just desperately trying to get back a priceless doll they think the kid stole. That’s a choice.

Wait, the original cartoon was pretty subversive and anti-authoritarian. Is Disney sure it wants that kind of stuff rubbing elbows with its military propaganda?
