Finding the best shows on Disney Plus isn't an easy task. For decades, the House of Mouse was pretty much solely associated with feature films, but there's more than just movies on the esteemed studio's dedicated streaming platform.

The best shows on Disney Plus
30. WandaVision
Year: 2021
Seasons: 1
Wanda Maximoff is in a state of grief after the events of Infinity War and Endgame saw her beloved Vision destroyed. However, all that pain appears to have disappeared when she begins a new life in the town of Westview with Vision and their two children, Billy and Tommy. All is not as it seems, though, and Wanda must work through her pain to understand the extent of her delusions.
This was the first Marvel TV show, and to be honest, it's still the best. WandaVision is highly creative, and the decision to frame the series as homages to different sitcom styles was a masterstroke, as the fun tone perfectly juxtaposes the more sinister mystery at the heart of the story. When the penny drops in Episode 4, your jaw will be on the floor! If you want to get into the MCU, head to our guide on how to watch the Marvel movies in order, which includes all the major Disney Plus series. You won't regret making your way through the mega-franchise.

29. Ahsoka
Year: 2023
Seasons: 1
Rosario Dawson returns as Ahsoka Tano to lead her own show, expanding the Star Wars timeline by delving further into the fallout of the demise of the Galactic Empire. With Grand Admiral Thrawn stranded in another galaxy, it’s up to Ashsoka and her apprentice, Sabine Wren, to keep him there and maintain the peace of the nascent New Republic.
It's about time Ahsoka — one of the greatest Star Wars characters of them all — was given the chance to shine. This series may feature a lot of familiar faces, but it explores new worlds and unearths fresh lore, thus making the galaxy feel grandiose and epic once more. Plus, in Baylan Skoll, we get one of the most fascinating and nuanced Star Wars villains to date.
Check out our Ahsoka episode 1 and 2 review while we wait for season 2 to arrive!
28. The Beatles: Get Back
Year: 2021
Seasons: 1
If you're a Beatles fan, then look no further than Peter Jackson's epic documentary on the band. In true Jackson style, it's long, the three parts clocking in at 157 minutes, 174 minutes, and 139 minutes. The documentary features archive footage of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, at a particularly strained time in the band's history: the recording sessions that eventually became the film and album Let It Be, released after the group had disbanded.
Even if you're not particularly a lover of The Beatles, Get Back is still an unparalleled look into the behind-the-scenes workings of the creative process – and some timeless tunes. Plus, it dismisses a few myths: this isn't an unpleasant time to hang out with the Beatles, but one filled with laughs and love.
27. Daredevil
Year: 2015
Seasons: 3
After being on Netflix, Daredevil has made the jump to Disney Plus, bringing the superhero studio's output together in one place. Daredevil is an adult-orientated show that features lots of fighting, blood, and swearing, so it is not one to introduce the kids to. However, if you're a Marvel fan, this isn't one to miss, especially now that characters are starting to cross over with other movies and shows.
Daredevil is only one of the formerly Netflix Marvel shows available on Disney Plus, and the later seasons only really work in tandem with the others. They include Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and The Punisher. The characters later teamed up for their own Avengers-style mash-up called The Defenders. Frankly, you're going to want to know how to watch The Defenders Saga in order, which is why we've created the guide through that link. Be warned: that's a whole lot of television to watch.
26. The Imagineering Story
Year: 2019
Seasons: 1
Yes, cynics will dismiss The Imagineering Story as simply a show constructed to help build Disney's reputation, reveling in all the joy the studio has put out without dealing with some of the darker elements of its past. Yet, rather than being a simple puff piece, the series offers a glance behind the curtain at Disney, and marks an educational historical document that will have anyone who's watched Disney's animated movies with nostalgic pangs hitting them every minute.
Those Disney Plus subscribers fully on board the Disney train will find a lot to enjoy here – just don't expect a tough documentary. And sometimes, that's no bad thing.
25. DuckTales
Year: 2017
Seasons: 3
We don’t talk enough about Donald Duck’s Scottish heritage. So, thank you to DuckTales for reminding us in the form of Scrooge McDuck – an eccentric billionaire who hasn’t yet been crushed to death from repeatedly diving into a pool of solid gold coins. He’s obsessed with maintaining his status as "the richest duck in the world," which doesn’t give him much time to look after his nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, foisted onto him after Donald decided to join the US Navy (of course).
DuckTales (woohoohoo!) not only has one of the catchiest theme tunes to have ever been created, but it was also the reliable highlight of Disney Afternoon’s line-up. It’s a series filled with escapist adventures and globe-trotting intrigue. There are Vikings, knights, pirates, and ghosts – who knows who we’ll meet and where we’ll go. And it’s great to see that same sense of ingenuity maintained for the 2017 reboot.
24. Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Year: 2023
Seasons: 1
Based on the series of young adult fantasy books by Rick Riordan, Percy Jackson and the Olympians sees the titular 12-year-old demigod discover that Greek gods and monsters are real, and that he is very much a part of their world. That’s especially true when he’s accused by Zeus of stealing his thunderbolt, leaving Percy with the unenviable task of finding it and restoring it to Olympus to prove his innocence.
Fans of the books will love this faithful adaptation, which beautifully fleshes out the world of its hero and his godly allies and antagonists. A lot of credit has to go to the young cast, too, who bring plenty of charm to the show, with star Walker Scobell being a particular highlight. Bring on Season 2!
23. Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Year: 2008
Seasons: 7
Although things first kicked off with a 2008 feature film, the Clone Wars series has since carried on the story, filling in the three year-gap between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Both Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi feature prominently as characters, as they lead the Republic against the Separatist forces first brought together by former Jedi Count Dooku.
Despite the returning characters, though, it’s all about Ahsoka. It’s pretty astounding that a character from an animated spin-off series has slowly grown into one of the most popular Star Wars characters of all time. She’s a hero with enough of a concrete sense of right and wrong that she’s able to question the very establishment she yearned to be a part of. It’s an incredible piece of drama and an interesting way to muddy the waters without throwing out the entire concept of the light and dark side.
Read our guide on how to watch The Clone Wars in order, if you are after more Star Wars timeline fun.
22. X-Men
Year: 1992
Seasons: 5
Can we call it the ultimate X-Men TV series? It’s relatively faithful in copying the look and feel of the best X-Men comics at the time (specifically those drawn by Jim Lee). Although a lot of the stories are completely original, the show isn’t afraid to dip in and out of the source material – it arguably features the best on-screen adaptation of the Dark Phoenix storyline (sorry, Famke Janssen and Sophie Turner).
The animation may have been on the cheap and cheerful side, but it nailed the thrilling action of the comics. It also committed to a more serious tone that didn’t feel overly grim, while also avoiding the kind of cutesy gimmicks that feel like they’ve been created just to sell toys. It was unique at the time for having multi-episode arcs, which not only had a major influence on Saturday morning TV, but even helped pave the way for the live-action movies. And give it up for the show's killer theme.

21. That's So Raven
Year: 2003
Seasons: 4
That’s So Raven is best described as mildly supernatural, hitting a midpoint between Lizzie McGuire and Wizards of Waverly Place. Our hero, Raven, has psychic abilities, but unlike most pop culture physics, she doesn’t go crazy and start killing everybody. Instead, she mainly uses her powers to help out her family and advance her career as an aspiring fashion designer.
That’s So Raven is the undisputed peak of Disney Channel sitcoms. So much so that it convinced the network to finally discard its bizarre rule of limiting every series to 65 episodes. It’s a winner partially because of the chemistry between Raven Symone and her onscreen friends, played by Anneliese Van Der Pol and Orlando Brown. But, more importantly, Symone herself is a delight in every second she occupies the screen. She can sell goofy physical comedy like nobody else.
20. The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Year: 1988
Seasons: 4
The reason there’s a “new” in the title is because the show follows on pretty directly from the 1977 film The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (and the handful of shorts that came after it). Inspired by A.A. Milne’s stories, it follows our beloved bear as he wanders aimlessly through the Hundred Acre Woods, doling out zen catchphrases and getting his curvaceous behind stuck in various burrows and tree stumps.
Everyone’s favorites are here, from Eeyore to Tigger, while it remains the only series to regularly feature Christopher Robin as a character. The series is a near-perfect continuation of the stories we all know and love. It just has such a calming presence. It’s like a big hug from someone wearing a fuzzy jumper or a cup of tea on a blustery day.
19. The Simpsons
Year: 1989
Seasons: 34
The first 11 seasons of The Simpsons are arguably some of the best TV show episodes of all time. Admittedly, the show isn’t quite the titan that it used to be. Most people would agree that it’s been steadily declining in quality over the past few years. However, The Simpsons still changed the face of television, ushering in a new era of smart, witty, and adventurous comedy writing.
Its more well-known episodes have become integrated into our culture and into our language, to the point that you can barely make it through a day now without someone in your life trying to drop a reference (unless, of course, that person is you). And now it’s all here on Disney Plus, which is a little ironic considering many people reacted to the news of Disney’s ever-expanding monopoly with the line, “I, for one, welcome our new rodent overlords.” This one's sure to be one of the best shows on Disney Plus for... well, forever.
If you are after some highlights, read our list of the best Simpsons episodes.
18. Phineas and Ferb
Year: 2007
Seasons: 4
Like many of the shows on this list, Phineas and Ferb is all about siblings hatching up harebrained schemes. In this case, the biggest threat to their success is their sister Candace (this universe appears to contradict the wisdom of “snitches get stitches”, as Candace remains unharmed throughout the show’s entirety). While the kids keep busy, their pet platypus, Perry, has a sideline career as a secret agent.
Co-creator Dan Povenmire once described the show as a cross between SpongeBob SquarePants and Family Guy (he’s worked on both). It blends the former’s silliness with the latter’s love of pop culture. This careful balance is what makes the show such a cross-generation hit. There’s something for everyone, all tied together by the sweet, affecting way Phineas and Ferb’s relationship—as two–step brothers—is represented.
17. Agents of Shield
Year: 2013
Seasons: 7
Remember Agent Coulson? The guy who apparently died in Avengers? Well, he didn't actually die. Actually, he sorta did die but ended up going to this place called Tahiti – a magical place – where he was resurrected and brought back to work for Shield and put together a new team, this time with only one of two super-powered beings.
Leading the way is Skye, later Quake, played by Chloe Bennet. She's a skilled hacker who doesn't want anything to do with Coulson – soon enough, he's basically a surrogate father. While the first season may be a bit of a slog, keep with Agents of Shield, and you're bound to have a good time, especially when it comes to Ghost Rider and the time-twisting shenanigans of the later seasons. And, of course, there's FitzSimmons, the best love story in the MCU. There, we said it!
16. The Incredible Hulk – Series
Year: 1996
Seasons: 2
The Incredible Hulk may have only lasted for two seasons, but it certainly didn’t skimp on the action. We start with Bruce Banner on the run from General Ross, while also searching for a cure so that he can finally separate himself from his big, green, and angry alter ego. However, by the time season two rolled around, She-Hulk’s role was beefed up, and the show’s name was changed to The Incredible Hulk and She-Hulk. That coincidentally makes it pretty good homework for those wanting to study up after watching the live-action She-Hulk series.
The Incredible Hulk is a fairly faithful translation of the source comics, not only in its look, but in the many cameos from familiar heroes. We get appearances from Iron Man, Thor, War Machine, Doctor Strange, and the Fantastic Four – all characters that even the most casual of Marvel fans are now sure to recognize. The cherry on top, however, is Lou Ferrigno’s return as the voice of the Hulk, having famously played him in the '70s live-action series.

15. The Suite Life of Zack & Cody
Year: 2005
Seasons: 3
Riverdale fans will already be familiar with one of the stars of Suite Life, Cole Sprouse, who here got his start alongside his twin brother Dylan. The duo plays Zack and Cody, while the basic premise of the show revolves around the question, “How cool would it be to live in a hotel?” The answer is very cool, as it allows you to get up to all sorts of hijinks. The show also features a Paris Hilton parody in the form of Brenda Song’s London Tipton and a role for High School Musical’s Ashley Tisdale.
It’s unashamedly goofy, fulfilling the childish fantasy of having no rules and no limitations. These kids run riot. It’s like the hotel turns them into non-murderous, sugar-fuelled little Jack Torrances. It’s definitely miles away from Jughead “I’m a weirdo” Jones, but it’s the kind of fluff that is pure Disney Channel.
14. Recess
Year: 1997
Seasons: 3
Recess (for UK readers, that means break time) throws together a bunch of misfit fourth-graders as they struggle against the microcosm of society presented to them on the school playground. It’s a place filled with strict laws and codes, ruled over by the ruthless sixth-grader named King Bob.
Not only are the characters instantly likable (Spinelli for president), but Recess seems thematically complex for a kid’s TV show. The way the opening titles parody The Great Escape is a good indicator of what the series is aiming for a smart satire about the suppression of the individual by society. Everyone is broken down into their cliques, from the popular girls to the (possibly) cannibalistic tribe of kindergartners. It’s a place where the biggest rebellion of all is just being yourself.
13. Gravity Falls
Year: 2012
Seasons: 2
Created by Alex Hirsch, Gravity Falls blends the nostalgia of long summer days with the thrill of the supernatural. So, it’s like Stranger Things, but also nothing like Stranger Things. Twins Dipper and Mabel are dropped off in a remote town in order to spend their vacation with their great uncle Stan Pines (otherwise known as Grunkle Stan). Soon enough, they start unraveling a few of the local mysteries.
Gravity Falls is Disney’s contribution to the modern era of original children’s programming – the kind that’s proven as addictive for adults as it is for kids. It’s a spiritual sibling to the likes of Adventure Time and The Amazing World of Gumball. The show’s success is also partially down to how brilliant its voice cast is, with the likes of Kristen Schaal, Jason Ritter, Linda Cardellini, and J.K. Simmons all on board. And, since it only lasted two seasons, the show actually delivered on an overarching mystery that was conclusively solved by the last episode.
12. Darkwing Duck
Year: 1991
Seasons: 2
The avian world’s answer to Batman, Darkwing Duck, is set in an entirely different universe to DuckTales, despite there being several crossover characters. Darkwing, the secret identity of Drake Mallard, always does the right thing in the end but does struggle a little too much with keeping his ego in check. He’s joined by a loyal sidekick in the form of Launchpad McQuack – a lovable, dimwitted pilot who also happens to be Darkwing’s number-one fan.
Darkwing Duck may have been a staple of Disney’s afternoon lineup in the '90s, but it was also of a slightly different breed to the rest. While DuckTales and Talespin work as broad adventure stories, Darkwing was created as a parody of the pulp heroes and comic book characters of the '30s and '40s. Even the city of St. Canard was clearly based on Gotham City. It’s a silly, light-hearted homage to the past greats.
11. Andor
Year: 2022
Seasons: 1
Set during the pre-A New Hope days as the Rebellion finds its feet, Andor is a gritty spy thriller that puts Diego Luna's revolutionary front and center of an ensemble piece that dives deeper into the political landscape of a galaxy far, far away than any live-action series before it. It's been praised for its tone, mature storytelling, and gorgeous use of practical sets.
Andor isn't the only live-action Star Wars show streaming right now, though. Let's be frank – if you have a Disney Plus subscription, you have probably already watched The Mandalorian, the streaming service's first must-watch original show. However, Andor has managed to stand out from the rest of the IP series, like The Book of Boba Fett and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Like the best Star Wars movies, there is always a favorite, and in terms of shows, it's Andor for us.
Don't agree with us? Well, maybe our Andor review can change your mind.
10. The Muppet Show
Year: 1976
Seasons: 5
Imagine Saturday Night Live but with Muppets, and you'll have a pretty good idea of what The Muppet Show was all about. Yes, Jim Henson's iconic creations got their own sketch show, complete with musical numbers, special guest stars, and recurring jokes. This award-winning series offers up 120 episodes of fun, with Kermit the Frog at the heart of it all.
The Muppets are an institution, and we'll never pass up an opportunity to celebrate these hilarious, heartwarming characters. In this modern world of CGI, social media, and the vastness of the internet, there's something really grounding and comforting about seeing a bunch of playful puppets just provide pure, old-school entertainment. The music is exceptional — though we'd expect nothing less from The Muppets — but it's the dedication from the show's guest stars that really elevates this and makes it one of the best shows on Disney Plus.
9. Kim Possible
Year: 2002
Seasons: 4
Life as a teenager is already a lot to handle. It only gets worse when you add in all the responsibilities of being an international spy. Thankfully, Kim is helped along the way by her best friend, Ron Stoppable (largely ineffectual, but he tries), and his pet naked mole rat, Rufus. She even has her own dedicated arch-enemies in the form of Dr Drakken and his sidekick, Shego. The show spawned a live-action adaptation, and it remains one of Disney’s most popular shows despite ending in 2007.
Kim has really earned her place as one of TV’s greatest onscreen heroines. She’s smart, and she kicks ass, but she still faces all the same problems and obstacles that every teen goes through. And she’s a true post-feminist: tough as nails but still the pretty, popular cheerleader type. Kim can really have it all – and that includes fighting in a crop top. But the show is also refreshingly funny and self-aware, offering a rare acknowledgment of the huge role the internet has started to play in teens’ lives.
Kim Possible also has one of the best intros. For more tunes, read our list of the best Disney songs.
8. TaleSpin
Year: 1990
Seasons: 1
Look, TaleSpin makes absolutely no sense. It’s just that '90s kids learned not to question it. Inspired by the classic film Casablanca, it casts The Jungle Book’s Baloo (whose full name is now Baloo von Bruinwald XIII) as a bush pilot whose air cargo freight business is acquired by the sharp, hotheaded Rebecca Cunningham. The pair spend their time fighting off air pirates, while maintaining the scintillating chemistry of the screwball comedies of the '30s and '40s.
It’s TaleSpin’s unabashed weirdness that made it work so well. It had the same appetite for adventure as the likes of DuckTales and Rescue Rangers, while its weirdly precise historical setting (around 1938) did well to sell the idea that this was basically Indiana Jones with talking animals. It’s something we never asked for, but we definitely won’t say no to it.
7. X-Men '97
Year: 2024
Seasons: 1
Picking up where X-Men: The Animated Series left off, X-Men '97 sees Magneto take leadership of the eponymous heroes in the wake of Professor Xavier’s death, but as tensions between mankind and mutants escalate and apocalypse beckons, the line between good and evil becomes more blurred than ever.
Put simply, X-Men '97 is one of the best superhero TV shows ever made. Staying true to its roots with retro animation and a scintillating synth score, fans of the original show will love diving into this world once more. The story, which has an abundance of offshoots and sub-plots, all comes together perfectly by the end, and every X-Men '97 cameo and Easter egg feels truly earned and meaningful. The action is epic, the emotional moments cut deep, and it’s refreshing to see a show so prepared to take risks.
Check out our X-Men '97 review for more on this magnificent mutant show, or prepare for X-Men '97 Season 2 with our guide on the next installment.
6. Gargoyles
Year: 1994
Seasons: 3
The dark horse of Disney’s afternoon programming, Gargoyles imagines that New York’s gargoyles, perched high above the city, come to life at night. In fact, back in the 1st century AD, they all lived freely and happily over in Scotland. Then the humans swooped in, hunted them down, and cursed them to a stony sleep – one they’ve finally woken up from thousands of years later and in a strange new world. As they adjust to the modern pace of life, they find the time to take down a bad guy or two.
Sat side-by-side with the likes of DuckTales and TaleSpin, it’s clear Gargoyles was never going to be as big a hit. Its stories were on an epic scale, drawing from British folklore and Shakespeare’s tragedies, especially Macbeth. Its tone was often dark and gothic. But it’s those same ingredients that have garnered it quite the cult following – director Jordan Peele is a fan and has even expressed interest in directing a live-action version.
5. Hannah Montana
Year: 2006
Seasons: 4
The genesis of pop star and controversy hoarder Miley Cyrus, the show teases the thrills of living a double life. By day, she’s just your average American schoolgirl, Miley Stewart. By night, she’s top-selling recording artist, Hannah Montana. The show seemed dedicated to building Cyrus’ own brand image since she basically played herself and roped in her own dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, to star as the show’s patriarch.
The idea that people wouldn’t know that Miley and Hannah are the same person, considering the only difference between them is a blonde wig, is downright hilarious. Apparently, Clark Kent’s glasses were just too much of a convincing disguise for these people. But that’s the charm of this show. It’s so unabashedly positive, nice, and silly that it’s no wonder that so many people have admitted to it being a guilty pleasure. There’s no doubt about it – Hannah Montana was a wildly successful enterprise.
4. Boy Meets World
Year: 1993
Seasons: 7
It’s a true throwback to the era when cute boys with curtained hair ruled the world. Fans watched Cory Matthews navigate the perils of high school and make it all the way to college, thanks to the help of his best friend Rider, love interest Topanga, and neighbor and teacher (later principal) Mr. Feeny. In a way, it was the starting point for Disney’s empire of teen sitcoms. Without Cory and Topanga, there surely wouldn’t have been a Lizzie, Hannah, or Raven.
But, more importantly, it’s one of the first teen shows that feels genuinely relatable to its audience. Cory is just a normal kid doing his best to get by. He isn’t particularly smart or popular, nor is he hiding some secret – he isn’t a spy or a vampire behind closed doors. The world around him isn’t always perfect: there are serious discussions of child abuse, poverty, sexual harassment, and alcoholism. And that honesty can mean a lot to a teen looking for a little guidance.
3. Lizzie McGuire
Year: 2001
Seasons: 2
A direct spiritual descendant of Boy Meets World, Lizzie McGuire similarly deals with an average girl who wants more than anything to become popular. The difference here is that we occasionally get to climb inside her head thanks to an animated alter ego, who’s there to rhapsodize about all the highs and lows of tween life.
The animated Lizzie is less of a gimmick than it seems. It helps deepen the character by making her immediately vulnerable – we know that her miniature self is always just seconds away from spilling the beans when it comes to Lizzie’s true emotions. But Lizzie also appeals because of her inherent niceness. It's probably the purest of all the Disney shows.
2. Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers
Year: 1989
Seasons: 1
What if Indiana Jones and Magnum PI teamed up, but were also chipmunks? It’s a question that no one in history has ever asked except for the creators of Rescue Rangers, who nabbed Mickey’s pals Chip ‘n Dale and made them the owners of a detective agency that specializes in miniature crimes. It made about as much sense as TaleSpin, with the heroes here also going on weekly adventures that seemed to draw from the old adventure serials of the '30s and '40s.
It has the second catchiest theme tune of all the Disney cartoons. But, more than that, the Indy-Magnum PI mashup actually works surprisingly well as an odd couple situation. Chip, with his fedora, is the more serious of the two, while Dale is goofier and sports a Hawaiian shirt. Plus, it was really boosted by the supporting characters, including the extremely Australian Monty and quick-thinking Gadget.
1. Star Wars Rebels
Year: 2014
Seasons: 4
The series is set five years before A New Hope, at a time when the Empire is ruthlessly hunting down Jedi after the execution of Order 66, all while the first sparks of rebellion start to take form. Ezra, a street urchin with force abilities, comes under the guidance of Kanan. Together, they form the crew of the rebel ship Ghost alongside Hera, its crack pilot, and Sabine, a Mandalorian and a former bounty hunter.
The most recent Star Wars animated shows have been a massive success thanks to the immense talent and intense geekery of one Dave Filoni – the creator behind Rebels, Clone Wars, Resistance, and the web series Forces of Destiny. He also happens to have directed three episodes of The Mandalorian. In short, he’s a kind of Yoda figure in the fandom. It’s his dedication that makes Rebels feel like such an authentic part of the Star Wars universe. It’s just so rich, from its characters to its storylines.
