[–] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 6 points 3 years ago* (1 child) Peacock HBO Max Showtime Disney. Fucking DC Universe was trying to be a thing. Every media company wanted a streaming service but failed to deliver because of their hubris. Hulu and Netflix have been my constant subscription services. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 0 points 3 years ago (3 children) Disney is an absolute must if you have a kid, and a great value besides. Otherwise it makes 0 sense except for maybe star wars sometimes. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Very_Bad_Janet@kbin.social 4 points 3 years ago We got Disney + for our kids and they couldn't care less. The only thing they were interested in was The Mandolorian (bored after the first season) and the latest live action Spiderman (which was not available in Disney+ !!!). We'll be canceling once our special deal is over. Maybe we're lucky that our kids don't care for it because that will save us some money. permalink fedilink source parent [–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 years ago Nah, my kids prefer Netflix. Even then, they prefer to play games instead. So I'll be steering them toward video games instead of TV, and only for a limited time each day. permalink fedilink source parent [–] some_guy@kbin.social -2 points 3 years ago (1 child) Disney is an absolute must if you have a kid and aren’t capable of raising them without parking them in front of the TV. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Elivey@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) Downvoted for telling the truth. I know people raising kids who don't plant their kids in front of a tablet or TV to watch Disney+ or YT ever. It's possible if you spend some goddamn time with your child and have a creative mind. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] cre0@kbin.social 1 point 3 years ago [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
