2022 has almost come to an end, and that means we have one last month of Disney+ content to enjoy before the new year arrives. It’s been an uneven year, with some months having a lot of new content, and other months seemingly scraping the bottom of the barrel. The quality of original shows has been good, but the volume of missing Disney library content remains extensive. But all in all, a Disney+ subscription is something worth having.
Star Wars and Marvel have done their thing this year, so in terms of Disney+ original series, the year will end with the sequel series to the Lucasfilm classic Willow and a new sequel series to the popular one National tax. And of course, when it’s Christmas, we’ll see some new holiday content, including a musical special from Pentatonix, and (found in the extras section) a version of The Muppet Christmas Carol which includes the famous clip song. Here, everything else is ready to arrive in December.
