Summary
Every streaming service has amassed a library of shows along with their movies and video game selection, and some of these famous shows have been on for years and have passed the one-hundred-episode mark.Disney+is one of many services that have a similar choice of shows, in part thanks to the long history of the studio.
Not every show on Disney+ that has more than 100 episodes is a cartoon, and not every selection is appropriate for the whole family. There’s an equal selection of old and new shows, and they’ve been sorted by the number of episodes so everyone knows how much time they need for a standard binge-watch.
Once upon a time, Disney+ was a “cable channel,” an early version of a streaming service available via satellite or special receiver. It was called the Disney Channel, and one of its flagship shows wasDuckTales. Theshow featured the adventures of Huey, Dewey, and Louie, along with rich Uncle Scrooge.
The premise was that Donald had joined the Navy and left his nephews in the care of their rich older relative, and the plot involved a variety of adventures, some of them in exotic locations looking for treasure, but sometimes they also had to protect the fortune of Uncle Scrooge. The franchise grew to include everything from comic books to video games,and the series was rebootedin 2016 with some new plot twists and characters.
Aliasis part of a wave of television shows in the 1990s that had strong female characters, likeBuffy the Vampire SlayerandXena: Warrior Princess, and in five seasons the show had a total of 105 episodes. As the title implies, the main character is a double agent who spends the show hiding her real identity.
Jennifer Garner plays Sydney Bristow, who works for the CIA but pretends to be an operative for a criminal organization known as SD-6. Earlier seasons focus on her efforts to keep her life as a spy a secret, while the plot later in the series turns to her missions recovering precious artifacts or uncovering lost secrets.
The genre ofGleeis described as “jukebox musical comedy-drama, in the spiritof other popular showslikeMamma Mia, which means the aesthetic is similar to a stage play. The songs are often pop culture hits instead of unique songs for the show, which makes them more immersive from the audience’s point of view.
New Directions is the name of the glee club in William McKinley High School, located in Lima, Ohio. The show isn’t just about the club itself, organizing musical and theatre-themed events but also their trials and challenges as they come of age in middle-class America.
The critically acclaimed favorite of both adults and kids about a cartoon dog and his family,Blueyis still going strong after three seasons and 154 episodes. The cartoon is made in Australia and is suitable for anyone aged preschool level or up, and the stories of this adorable blue heeler puppy from Brisbane are popular worldwide.
Bluey and her sister Bingo have all kinds of adventures, sometimes with their mom Chilli and their dad Bandit, but also with their neighbors, Pat the Golden Retriever and Chow Chow Wendy. Their teacher is, of course, an Australian shepherd. It’s easy to see why the show is so popular just by describing the adorable characters, even if the viewer is a person who doesn’t like dogs.
Situationcomedies that were designedand intended for network television often stayed in circulation for years, which is partly howBoy Meets Worldgot as far as 158 episodes and seven seasons. It was part of the popular “coming of age” trend in the early 1990s which also included shows likeFresh Prince of Bel-AirandBlossom.
Ben Savage plays the main character, Cory Matthews, and the story begins when he’s eleven years old and ends when he turns 18 and is about to head off to college. Critics and audiences both responded positively to the show, and there was also a spinoff calledGirl Meets Worldwhich is also on Disney+.
