"Well, the word got around, they said, this kid is insane, man Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland Get your education, don't forget from whence you came And the world is gonna know your name What's your name, man?   Alexander Hamilton My name is Alexander Hamilton And there's a million things I haven't done But just you wait, just you wait."   Hamilton the Musical is coming to Disney+ (which is not news) but what IS news and has us so excited is the new date.    July 4th- which is obviously not a mistake and is clearly the best gift that COVID and Disney+ could bring us right now.    Here's what we know about the musical (and please don't mind us fangirling a bit!)  Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

It's never too soon for more Star Wars! This week we're chatting about the new Disney original series, Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian.  “Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian” is an eight-episode documentary series that pulls back the curtain on The Mandalorian. Each chapter explores a different facet of the first live-action Star Wars television show through interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, and roundtable conversations hosted by Jon Favreau. Topics this season include the filmmaking process, the legacy of George Lucas’ Star Wars, how the cast brought the characters to life, the series’ groundbreaking technology, the artistry behind the show’s practical models, effects, and creatures, plus the creative influences, the iconic score, and connections to Star Wars characters and props from across the galaxy. If you haven't started this one yet, go ahead and add it to your watchlist. You won't be sorry! Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made is the catchphrase for this new Disney+ movie. And we gotta say- that could pretty much sum up the whole film. Ahem.  Andrea and Patty are in agreement on this one: Timmy Failure is a miss for us. Despite a super cute polar bear who steals some scenes, we didn't think the movie lived up to the book potential. We explain what we don't love about this movie and with this honest Disney+ review. You can also read Andrea's parent guide for more details.  Timmy Failure Parents Guide Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

We didn't want to give too much away in the title, but hey, I think that ship has sailed at this point.  We're talking The Mandalorian today, which is the last of the Original Shows that were available at launch on Disney+.  We're both fans of the show to varying degrees: and one of us is totally wrong about how cute The Child really is. I mean, he's no Baby Groot! Ahem. Okay: he is really cute. I'll give him and all the Baby Yoda Memes he's spawned some love.    Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas on Disney+! The new streaming service launched this week with a brand new original holiday film on day one and we can't wait to share our thoughts. Andrea and Patty are chatting about Noelle starring Anna Kendrick and Bill Hader and guess what? They don't agree on this one.  Listen to find out why! About Noelle In Disney+’s holiday comedy “Noelle,” Kris Kringle’s daughter is full of Christmas spirit and holiday fun, but wishes she could do something “important” like her beloved brother Nick, who will take over for their father this Christmas. When Nick is about to crumble like a gingerbread cookie from all the pressure, Noelle suggests he take a break and get away…but when he doesn’t return, Noelle must find her brother and bring him back in time to save Christmas.

You know that Michael Scott GIF from The Office- where he's running around saying, "Okay, it's happening!" That's us. Right now. We're (almost!) Now Streaming Disney Plus. November 12 is less than 2 weeks away and y'all, THIS IS GOING TO BE GOOD! How do we know?

About The World According to Jeff Goldblum In this new 12-part series, Jeff Goldblum takes us on an entertaining, insightful and playful ride! In each episode, he pulls on the thread of a deceptively familiar object to unravel a world of astonishing connections, fascinating science and history. From sneakers, ice cream, coffee and cosmetics to everything in between, Jeff uncovers how even the simplest things have incredible, sometimes whimsical backstories. Through the prism of Jeff’s always inquisitive and highly entertaining mind, nothing is as it seems in this new series.   Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

We're not kidding, y'all. Bring the tissues when you sit down to watch this one on Disney+.  And your kids. Because they will be inspired and encouraged when they see how these young heroes are changing their communities.  This is a feel-good, do more, be more kind of show. And we love it (oops- spoiler! But listen to us tell you why anyway).    Marvel's Hero Project The series, produced by Marvel New Media in partnership with MaggieVision Productions, reveals the remarkable, positive change several young heroes are making in their own communities. These young heroes have dedicated their lives to selfless acts of bravery and kindness, and now, Marvel celebrates them as the true Super Heroes they are.   Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

Forky: he may be trash, but he's trash with a lot on his mind. And yes, the show is as ridiculous as that sentence.  Your kids: they are going to LOVE it.  You: Weeellllll... Patty and Andrea have some thoughts on this one. Oh, Forky... so... yeah... we are not the Forky target audience.    About Forky Asks A Question Forky, in Disney and Pixar’s “Toy Story 4,” is a craft project created from trash, has important questions about how the world works, such as: What is love? What is time? And of course, the deepest question of all, What is cheese? He explores all of these questions and more in a collection of 10 shorts.   Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

Pop the popcorn and bring the teens because we think you'll love High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Get ready to laugh, meet an awesome new cast, and fall in love with an amazing new soundtrack.  Haven't seen the original High School Musical? Don't worry! Neither has Andrea and she still gives it two thumbs up! *Production note: Patty thinks Olivia Rodrigo was the actress/songwriter called out at D23 Expo. Sorry! About High School Musical: The Musical: The Series The 10-episode scripted series, set at the real-life East High, where the original movie was filmed, follows a group of students as they countdown to opening night of their school's first-ever production of “High School Musical.” With meta references and some docu-style elements, it’s a modern take on the “classic” from 13 years ago.  Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?

Proof that we don't *always* agree on shows... we reviewed Encore! and, well, we don't agree.  Andrea isn't a fan but Patty is. And we each have our reasons why. You know you want to hear them! Continuing the Disney+ screeners with the Kristen Bell produced show, Encore! About Encore! Former castmates of a high school musical come together to re-create their original performance. Talk about a high school reunion! Emotions run high as the former students face faded friendships, former flames, self-doubt, and killer choreography. Where can you find the Now Streaming Team?
