    Disney+ has arrived. I won't get much of a chance to watch content until later, but as previously reported, the set-up is pretty much the same as Netflix.

    How are you getting it? Which device, I mean?

    EDIT: Never mind. My Apple TV just had the app buried in the app store.

    Holy crap! They have Flight of the Navigator on there. I loved that movie when I was a kid.

    *Me, planning to binge The Mandalorian on my day off*

    Wife walks in: "But I wanted to watch that, too. Can't you wait?"

    Me: ...

    Fuck.

    So far, I've only been able to look at it on my computer.

    I was searching for the app on my television this morning, but haven't found it yet. Some customer service person may end up strongly disliking me by the end of the day today. That, or this may be one of the days having a tech-savvy teenager in the house works to my benefit. :)

    The app's not available on my older model Samsung. Checking the new one now.

    Edit: My newer Samsung had the app in the Samsung app store.

    I would have replied sooner but I first had to watch Act 1 from the original Escape to Witch Mountain.

    Flight of the Navigator still holds up well. And now for my favorite Disney cartoon movie, Robin Hood.

    You would think it would be available on any Smart TV.

    You won’t be binging. They’re going with the Hulu model and releasing one episode a week. But it was a heck of an episode.

    The original Star Wars trilogy in 4K is a nice surprise. There have been some glitches, lots really, but its been a welcome addition to my streaming content overall.

    That figures, since the free trial is just seven days.

    The Mandalorian will have episodes released on a weekly basis — one available at launch with new releases every Friday beginning Nov. 15 — so no binge-watching on it. I'm glad for that because it gets hard to avoid spoilers and the chances of me finding 10 hours to watch a show in a weekend are slim to none and Slim just left.

    EDIT: @JRoyal beat me to it.
