5 Things You Should Watch First On Disney+

Disney+ is finally out and we’ve spent most of our time laying in bed watching countless reruns of old Disney Channel shows. There are so many movies, shows, and Disney+ originals you may not know where to start, but we’ve got you covered. Here are the 5 things you should watch before anything else on Disney+.

1. High School Musical: The Musical: The Series

Disney+ was truly the “start of something new” for the beloved High School Musical franchise. Those that grew up jamming to the soundtracks are in for a special treat when it comes to High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.

The series takes place right back at East High, where the drama department is setting out to do their first production of High School Musical. There’s drama, heartbreak, humor, and of course singing. Fans can sing along to all the HSM classics but are also introduced to brand new songs made especially for the new characters.

The show is set up almost like a sit-com, but there’s way more drama than you would expect. How will Nini cope with having to play Gabriella while her ex-boyfriend Ricky plays Troy? And what will EJ do when he has to watch Nini, his girlfriend, schmooze it up with her ex? Not even Sharpay herself could write this drama.

The underlying part of the plot shows the core of a high school theatre department and brings to light stories of growing up and fitting in. As these teens tackle high school just like the East High Wildcats did in the movies, they also have a lot to live up to. I mean, how can you top the iconic routine that is “Bop to the Top”?

2. The Mandalorian

If you are a diehard Star Wars fan, you need to be watching The Mandalorian. Disney+ is bringing untold Star Wars stories to life with the new platform and fans are raving about it.

Set after the fall of the Empire, which took place in Return of The Jedi, a lone bounty hunter travels the far reaches of the galaxy to collect his prizes; people or creatures that have bounties on their heads. Although only two episodes have been released at the time this article is being written, fans are already set up for a thrilling plot.

The Mandalorian brings nostalgia from the original Star Wars trilogy, but it also provides a fresh new plot that is exciting fans for the future of the saga.

Disney+ was smart to release The Mandalorian with the launch of the service. Why? Because the third and final installment of the sequel trilogy, The Rise of Skywalker is due to release in late December. The Mandalorian is getting fans hyped up to see the movie and is keeping them company until it comes out.

3. The World According to Jeff Goldblum

Ever wonder what famous actor Jeff Goldblum thinks of different things in the world? Well, Disney+ has the answers for you. The World According to Jeff Goldblum brings fans right into his mind as he unravels the tales and connections behind everyday items (like sneakers, or even ice cream).

The show is hilariously entertaining but also super cool! You’ll laugh a lot but also learn a lot too. Disney+ and NatGeo have taken a fun spin on education that people of all ages will enjoy. Choosing Jeff Goldblum was a brilliant idea because the man is funny, smart, and a great host.

You probably never thought you needed a show like The World According to Jeff Goldblum, but after you watch the first few episodes, you’ll realize it’s exactly what you wanted. Head on over to Disney+ and learn about some pretty peculiar things that will make you question the world around you.
