Disney+ has a HUGE selection of movies and shows to watch. Plus, there are dozens of new titles coming to the streaming service in the near future, too. Disney+ Streaming Service ©Disney There’s so much to choose from, from classic Disney films, Star Wars movies, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Disney+ originals, and so much more. But, there are also a few shows and movies that are missing. These are five things we can’t help but wish were on Disney+! Disney’s Sing Along Songs on VHS One of our old-school Disney favorites that we wish was on Disney+ is the old Disney Sing Along Songs that came on VHS! These videos each featured a different theme, like “Happy Haunting,” “Disneyland Fun,” “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” “Under the Sea,” and more! Disney Sing Alongs We’d croon along to some of our favorite Disney tunes! Lyrics are provided, but the true Disney pros don’t need them . Disney Sing Alongs We’d be thrilled to be singing along with these once again! Playhouse Disney Shows Before there was Disney Junior, there was Playhouse Disney! This channel offered tons of shows created for younger kids, like preschoolers. And, although it’s been a while since we’ve seen these shows, we’d love to check them out again now! ©Disney We’re talking OG shows like Rolie Polie Olie, Bear in the Big Blue House, and PB&J Otter! ©D23 Getting the chance to watch these shows again would probably hit us with a big ol’ wave of nostalgia. Less Popular Disney Channel Shows While we’re glad to see shows like Lizzie McGuire, That’s So Raven, and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody on Disney+, there are a few that didn’t make the cut! Shows like American Dragon: Jake Long, Disney’s House of Mouse, and Lloyd in Space (remember those?!) have not yet made their way onto the streaming platform. ©Disney There are more than a few Disney Channel shows that haven’t made it to Disney+ yet, but we’ll be keeping an eye out! Original Disney Cartoons There’s already a decent selection of Disney cartoons on Disney+ already, like the iconic animated short, Steamboat Willie, where Mickey Mouse himself was created! But in our opinion, the more original cartoons, the better! Steamboat Willie There are plenty of cartoons featuring members of the Fab Five (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto) missing! One short we wish we could pull up on our TVs all on its own, especially around Halloween time, is The Skeleton Dance from Silly Symphony, the 1929 series of animated shorts. ©D23 Getting the opportunity to see more of the projects that Walt Disney himself was involved in making would be so fun! Resort TV Loops You know those channels that play in the background in your Disney Resort, but you don’t necessarily pay much attention to? You know the ones we’re talking about. They share information that’ll help you prepare for your day, like park hours and weather, while you’re chasing down family members making sure they have sunscreen on before heading out for the day. Disney Resort TV Loop While they may not seem super exciting, we’d certainly be happy to have those looping on our TVs all day long to help us pretend we’re at Disney! Plus, the music is pretty motivational. Check out everything NEW coming to Disney+! We know we’ve got plenty to binge-watch on Disney+ already, but we can’t help but wish some of these things were added to the list. We’ll be sure to share more updates about everything coming to Disney+ so be sure to check back with us! Find out who’s REALLY subscribing to Disney+ here!

There’s a LOT of new content coming to Disney+ soon, and we’re really excited! Disney+ There are Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar series, as well as original movies, all premiering throughout this year and into 2022 and 2023. We love the creativity that Disney pours into creating this new content, and now we’ve got another original series to anticipate! A new food competition show is coming to Disney+, and it will be hosted and executive produced by Keke Palmer! The new show, titled Foodtastic, is an unscripted competition where participants make over-the-top Disney-themed sculptures out of all types of food! The judges for the show include NYC’s City Cakes founder Chef Benny Rivera and FLOUR SHOP founder Amirah Kassem. ©D23 The 11-episode series began production this week and will premiere later this year. In each episode, three teams of artists transform Disney characters into edible masterpieces. Their works are judged on design, technical skills, and narrative, but not on taste. ©D23 The leftover food from each week’s competition will be donated to local food banks to help those in need. In addition to Keke Palmer, Josh Silberman, Sarah Happel Jackson, Sharon Levy, DJ Nurre, and Michael Heyerman will serve as executive producers. ©D23 As we get more details on this upcoming show, we’ll make sure to keep you updated.

It’s just January, but Disney has announced a TON of changes coming to Disney Parks soon! Disneyland entrance Perhaps Disney’s biggest announcement so far, though, is about the company’s plan to discontinue the Disneyland Annual Passholder Program. Disneyland Resort has been closed since last March, and there have been no announcements of a reopening date or timeline. Annual Passholders received automatic extensions on their passes, while their monthly payments were paused. But then Disney announced that it planned on replacing the Passholder program with something else. Disney California Adventure Park Now, Disney has announced that Passholders who had active memberships as of March 14th, 2020 are now part of what the company calls “Legacy Passholders.” Those passholders will have access to magical extras that include special merchandise and food and beverage offerings. ©Disney Passholder discounts have also been extended for a limited time for shopping and food and beverage at Downtown Disney and California Adventure’s Buena Vista Street. Now that the stay-at-home order for the county there has been lifted, stationary and social-distanced dining is now available there again. Previously, restaurants could only offer take-out options that could not be eaten in the vicinity. Stores are still operating at limited capacity. Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen One of the Magical Extras is 30% discount on select merchandise at select Downtown Disney and Buena Vista Street locations. The offer is valid Monday through Thursday, starting on January 18th and ending on February 25th. World of Disney at Downtown Disney On days the discount is not available and after the offer has ended, passholders will “continue to receive applicable discounts, based on their Passport type on merchandise and food and beverages at select Downtown Disney District and Buena Vista Street locations until new membership offerings are announced.” We’ll continue to keep an eye on the situation and keep you updated on any changes or when the new membership program is announced!

While out and about in Disney Springs today, we spotted a brand-new collection! Hi, Alice! Disney has released lots of Alice in Wonderland merchandise lately, like a Mad Tea Party Wishables set, a Loungefly collection, and more. Now, there’s a brand-new set of Alice shirts so you can celebrate your un-birthday every day! We found the new collection at UNIQLO in Disney Springs. And there’s lots of fun stuff in here. ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Uniqlo Collection Take a look at these tees! The shirts follow Alice on her adventures as she joins the Mad Hatter for a tea party and strolls through a garden to sing with flowers. The artwork was done by illustrator Izumi Shiokawa, and we love how vibrant it is. ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Uniqlo Collection You can also pick up some more neutral colors in this collection. The purple Cheshire Cat shirt still has a creatively crazy touch with the cat himself and scrawl that reads “Can you imagine?” Meanwhile, the black “Wandering in Wonderland” tee is a simpler choice. The artwork on the “Wandering in Wonderland” tee is by Auto Moai. ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Uniqlo Collection Auto Moai also illustrated this next tee! Alice is walking against a black background, presumably even farther into Wonderland. This one’s a great pick for someone who wants a subtle Disney touch on a stylish shirt. ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Uniqlo Collection This last shirt, illustrated by Izumi Shiokawa, has that same scrawly font from the Cheshire Cat shirt, but it reads “Wandering in Wonderland.” And it looks like Alice needs to slow down on that “Eat Me” cake, because she’s outgrowing the room. Luckily, her “Drink Me” remedy is nearby! The abstract art is just zany enough for Alice’s peculiar adventures. ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Uniqlo Collection All of these shirts are $19.90 at Uniqlo! We love the mix of statement tees and simpler options. Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney shopping news! Check Out How to Meet Alice in Disney World!

We’ve been pretty excited to follow the construction of the new M&M’s Store coming to Disney Springs! M&M’s Store We’ve learned about some exclusive M&M’s and packaging that we will see at the store! That makes us even more eager as we wait for an announcement about the store opening this year! And we’re seeing real signs of progress on the exterior of the building!

There are TONS of delicious snacks available all over Disney World. Disney Springs Earlier this week, we shared a peek at a NEW limited-time cannoli coming to Disney Springs to celebrate Peanut Butter Day. Today we got the chance to try the Peanut Butter Cannoli for ourselves and we’re sharing all the delicious details here with you! You’ll find this NEW cannoli creation over at Vivoli il Gelato in Disney Springs. Vivoli il Gelato The Peanut Butter Cannoli is made with ricotta cheese, peanut butter, and sugar, and is meant to be topped with chocolate chips. When we got ours, however, we didn’t get any of that chocolate chip topping. So, be sure to ask about it if you order this item. Peanut Butter Cannoli The filling inside the cannoli tasted almost like a peanut butter whipped cream and it was SO GOOD! This treat was delightfully light and sweet. Just hand us a bucket of that filling and we’ll be in peanut butter heaven. The filling was very flavorful, but not overpowering, so it had a nice balance to it. Peanut Butter Cannoli The cannoli itself is one of the usual ones from Vivoli’s cannoli case, and we watched the Cast Member add in that peanut butter filling ourselves. The cannoli had a great crunch to it, which we really enjoyed. We would have loved to see some toppings on this, like some nuts or a chocolate drizzle. Again, it looks like it is meant have some chocolate chips on it, so maybe that would have added that extra little touch we were looking for. Peanut Butter Cannoli Overall, we think this new cannoli is a great snack if you’re looking for something relatively small but full of flavor to satisfy your sweet tooth. Kids and peanut butter fans will probably really enjoy this. But, if you cannot stand the taste of peanut butter, then this is likely a skip for you. You can try this snack yourself for $6.75 (before tax) right now. But, it’ll only be around for a limited time. The Peanut Butter Cannoli will only be available through February 28th, so be sure to try it before it’s gone! Click here to see where you can get a MASSIVE snack in Disney World for just $3!

This year, the Disney Vacation Club is celebrating its 30th Anniversary! Disney Vacation Club Sign So far, we’ve seen a shirt, phone case, and more released to celebrate this special occasion. But, tomorrow, DVC Members can continue the celebrations by tuning in to a special, musical virtual event! The Disney Vacation Club events website is now promoting a special event that is “Coming Soon.” The event is called “We Go On” and it appears to be a virtual event that Members will be able to stream at home. Screenshot from the Disney Vacation Club Website The event is set to take place tomorrow, January 28th and is described as a “musical streaming event” that is “made for Members.” Screenshot from the Disney Vacation Club Website The DVC page shares a number of viewing tips, including mirroring from your computer or mobile device to your TV, and plugging in your devices so you don’t run out of battery, as well as some fun reminders to keep your hands and arms inside during the program. There’s also an option you can tap in the corner of the screen to get more tips for screen mirroring. Screenshot from the Disney Vacation Club Website Other than that, not much is known about this special event. We Go On is the name of the closing song that was used for EPCOT’s IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth nighttime spectacular. The song was written by Don Dorsey and performed by Kellie Coffey. IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth The Orlando Sentinel actually interviewed Don Dorsey back in 2019 about when he wrote the song. Dorsey said “As humans, you know, we fight to survive, we move into tomorrow as best we can. It wasn’t going to be ‘Rah, rah, it’s the millennium,’ I didn’t want to take it as that kind of a celebration. It was really more of a moment to recognize.” IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth IllumiNations came to a close back in 2019, and was temporarily replaced by EPCOT Forever. Harmonious is the new fireworks spectacular that is set to open in EPCOT at some point in the future. We’re not exactly sure how this DVC event will tie in to or be inspired by We Go On specifically. But, we’ll be on the lookout for more details! Click here to see the 30th Anniversary DVC Merch that has been released! Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox!

Disney has canceled all sailings through April 2021 and some in May 2021, as Disney Cruise Line “remains focused on the health and well-being of our Guests and team members.” The following sailings have been canceled: Disney Fantasy through April 24th Disney Dream through April 30th Disney Magic through May 6th Disney Wonder through May 12th Disney Cruise Line In addition, Disney is maintaining its decision to cancel all sailings longer than 7 nights, in accordance to the conditional sail order provided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Getting a boarding group for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, one of Disney World’s most popular attractions, can be one of the more difficult things you do throughout your entire Disney World trip. Rise of the Resistance You’ll want to keep in mind those new Boarding Group distribution times, get everything set up in the My Disney Experience app ahead of time, and ask for some help from the Force. If you’re lucky enough to get a Boarding Group, the key is then to return in time to ride the attraction. How much time do you have to get back to Rise once your group is called? Well, we actually noticed a bit of a change with that today. After you get your Boarding Group, the My Disney Experience app will show you your estimated return time. If/once your group is called to ride Rise of the Resistance, you then have a certain amount of time to return to the entrance of the attraction. It’s key that you return within the allotted time frame to make sure you can get on the ride. Rise of the Resistance Recently, the rule has been that guests have 1 hour to get back to Rise of the Resistance when their group is called. The Disney World website specifies that “You’ll have up to an hour from the time of the alert to go to the entrance of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance.” Rise of the Resistance But, when we got a Rise of the Resistance Boarding Group this morning, we noticed that the My Disney Experience app showed us something a bit different. Here’s a look at the page we got once we were assigned a Boarding Group. It specified that we were placed in Group 25 and our estimated return was 200 minutes. At the bottom you’ll see a “What’s Next?” portion… Screenshot from My Disney Experience …and that’s where the big change is. Under the “What’s Next?” heading, the app now says “Return to the experience entrance within 80 minutes of when your group is called, then scan your MagicBand or card to enter.” That’s an increase of 20 minutes in the return time. Screenshot from My Disney Experience That extra time can provide guests with some additional flexibility in case their group gets called when they’re in the middle of waiting in a long line at another attraction, eating at a restaurant, or doing something else that would otherwise cause them to potentially be a little bit late in returning to Rise of the Resistance. In the past, guests have reported two to three hour return windows, so it seems Disney may be testing out potentially increasing the current 60 minute return time frame to give guests more time. Rise of the Resistance Note that the Disney website does still specify that guests have up to an hour, but the app is what showed us this “80 minutes” return time. We’re not sure if this is just something new we experienced today or whether it will be sticking around. The next time you sign up for a Boarding Group, be sure to check if the My Disney Experience app also shows you this “80 minutes” return time and screenshot it just in case. If it doesn’t show you the “80 minutes” return time, then Disney’s current 60 minute return time is the rule you’d need to follow, unless that ultimately is changed on Disney’s website as well. We’ll continue to keep an eye out for more information on this and let you know what we see. Click here to see the latest about Boarding Group distribution time changes!
