I'm planning on dropping Disney+ once my annual plan ends next month. There's just nothing there to hold me. Coincidentally, I'm thrilled Disney is finally putting out Mando on Blu-ray.

I had a trial initially but I didn't like it enough to stick around. 'Legend of the three Caballeros' was pretty cool though.

Yeah, Disney was shooting itself in the foot by holding the Originals back from video. I'm hoping to get Clone Wars S7, Mando, Bad Batch, and Ahsoka when they come out, hopefully next year.

Frankelda's Book of Spooks actually just dropped on the US Max feed and as far as I know never left the Latin American version. Guillermo del Toro's a big fan and apparently used his clout to give the show and its studio more support in order to grow Mexico's animation scene and there's actually a Frankelda movie on the way.

Really?I Thank you. Was not aware of that. I'll make some corrections asap.

Honestly didn't realize Inside Amy Schumer had gone away again. I watched the first four seasons as it aired, but the show never seems to have been officially cancelled. I kept a list of 'completed' vs 'ongoing' shows and Inside Amy Schumer never got that public confirmation (that I could find) of an ending. It was always just 'maybe it will be back.' I would love to better understand the situation. Either way, it looks like I can get S5 from Google TV in Canada (it's not available in part or in full via the Paramount+ channel for Prime Video), which I may do. It was fantastic when it first aired.

From what I have read about it, the fifth season on Paramount may have been meant to fulfill some preexisting contractual obligations. I have not seen any of the series but your comments are encouraging.

I'd be curious to see how the older content aged. It was all very 2010s Feminist critiques of American life. I remember it being quite biting.

Interesting info about streaming. I had no idea. Schumer is just brilliant.
