As someone who subs to Disney, they really only have franchise content. If you’re not into Marvel or Star Wars then you’re basically just subbing for their backlog.
Whereas Netflix and HBO are actually putting out standalone originals. Stranger Things, Squid Game, Money Heist, House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, Grace and Frankie are/were all their own things without just being some movie franchise’s licensed tv spinoffs. Even HBO gives a mix of DC content with their original shows.
There really isn’t much in the way of series created for TV for Disney itself. Even after buying FOX, there’s not any real original new content to compete with Netflix.
Most of Disney's content is for children. They have hundreds of original kids shows.
Lots of vintage cartoons too but no, not worth the price.
At this point I only have disney, because in exchange I get access other people’s accounts like Max and Peacock. Once everyone goes the Netflix route and blocks sharing, all those subs are going out the window.
And they've run both franchises into the ground.
Money heist or La casa de papel was bought by Netflix and they added 2 more (unneeded in my opinion) seasons
