food IS a theme park
Do you know who Duffy the Bear is? You might be vaguely familiar that he’s a character very popular in Disney’s international parks and at Aulani Resort.
Duffy and Friends Headband
However, you’ve probably seen him — or his friends — in Disney World — on merchandise, on snacks, and in hidden artwork during the EPCOT Festival of the Arts. Well, you’re about to get to know him a LOT better because Duffy and his friends are getting a series on Disney+!
Even though Disney has been celebrating Halloween for a few weeks now (decorations and merchandise went up in the theme parks in mid-August!), we feel a little bit better about going into full spooky mode now that it’s officially September.
Halloweeeeen
We’re ready to throw up that fall decor, sip the pumpkin spice, and get our lineup of seasonal movies ready to go. And if you need help with that last one, Freeform has you covered!
Are you a Disney+ subscriber?

There’s certainly plenty to watch on the streaming subscription service right now. Not only did Lightyear recently get added, but She-Hulk: Attorney At Law premieres later this month, with the new Star Wars series, Andor, arriving next month. And now, you have one more show to catch on the platform!
We don’t know about you, but we are still REELING over all those announcements Disney made at San Diego Comic-Con! Wow! Was it a lot!

But a lot of those announcements were upcoming Disney+ series, some of which will premiere in August 2022! From the premieres of the new Marvel series She-Hulk to the new Star Wars series Andor to the Disney+ premiere of Lightyear, August is going to be on FIRE on Disney+.
Star Wars fans have really been spoiled over the past few years.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
They’ve had new shows like The Mandalorian (which also brought us our beloved Grogu) and The Book of Boba Fett, as well as places where they can actually immerse themselves into the world, like Galaxy’s Edge and the Galactic Starcruiser. But, the most exciting thing of all might still be yet to come — the new Obi-Wan Kenobi series for Disney+ (premiering on May 25th). And, we have a FIRST LOOK at the new series!
Hawaii seems like the dream, doesn’t it? How many of us have fantasized about visiting Disney’s Aulani Resort there?

Of course, we’re really dreaming about having a Dole Whip in Hawaii, or maybe a Mickey Shave Ice, or maybe meeting Moana in her home country, or one of the hundreds of other things you can do at the resort. Well, you’ll soon be able to go to Aulani without ever leaving your house because two upcoming episodes of ABC’s American Idol are going to take you there!
It may only be September 1st, but…
This is Halloween!
…spooky season has officially arrived! We started celebrating last month as soon as the Halloween decorations went up at Disney World and the first Disney After Hours BOO Bash event took place. But there’s more Halloween fun on the way! Soon, we’ll see even more Halloween merchandise become available, AND a spooktacular television viewing tradition will return this year! Ready to make your Halloween movie list for this season? Then read on!
When it comes to great TV shows AND movies, Disney+ has a treasure trove of content!
The Falcon and the Winter Solider isn’t the only thing to watch on Disney+
Not only do we get access to some great NEW movies, like Soul and Raya and the Last Dragon, but we’ve really enjoyed watching original content like The Mandalorian, WandaVision, and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. But there is SO much more to Disney+ than just the big Pixar, Star Wars, and Marvel content!
Although we’re still mourning the end of WandaVision, a brand NEW Marvel series has officially premiered on Disney+!
Who WILL wield the shield?
That series is The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and we’re already starting to see some merchandise (and food) dedicated to the series, including a cake (YES, a cake!) and some new EXCLUSIVE Captain America pins!
It seems like it was a LONG time ago when Disney first announced The Falcon and the Winter Soldier series coming to Disney+!

Initially, the series was supposed to debut in fall of last year, but because of the global health crisis, it got delayed. But the premiere episode airs THIS WEEK and Disney is now releasing lots of clips and teasers!
