It's funny how in the Feige presentation, he mentioned that the GotG Holiday Special will be filmed during the shooting of GotG:Vol3. But since there was no graphic for Vol3, the blogosphere keeps leaving it out of the list of MCU movies to come.Kevin Feige: Marvel Studios Shows Make the MCU “More Immersive Than Ever”

Awesome! That show was great and I am excited to see more episodes. Hopefully, now that it is more established, it might be able to drawn in bigger name guests (I know a few are mentioned in this article).New Episodes of 'Earth to Ned' Returning to Disney+ January 1

So a glorified clip show to pad the Disney+ lineup.
While COVID has certainly impacted their ability to produce content, they really ought to hold off on price increases until a few new pieces of substantial content have launched.

Well, it is after WandaVision and Soul drop. The price increase is coming in March so it seems to coincide with the launch of Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Raya and the Last Dragon. There's obviously other smaller stuff too like Beyond the Clouds, more Earth to Ned, You Again, flora & Ulysses, etc.
Of course, I guess it depends on how much is "enough" - I tend to agree that I would have held off for a few months after that (probably would have done the price hike to coincide with Loki).
We would have had a season of The Mandalorian, WandaVision, and Winter Falcon finishing up right about now if it weren't for a worldwide pandemic.

That's a decent line-up, but to a large degree they've been coasting on the strength of the Mandalorian and the Disney back catalogue, and little else. They could show some appreciation to their subscribers for paying for a service that's still growing.
Oh well, it is what it is and Disney is famously a business.

Absolutely. But I think that speaks for how it would perhaps have been "fairer" to hold off on the price hike for a little longer rather than March until more of that original programming had come out.
As an aside, did they announce new yearly subscription prices or just the monthly cost? And are they doing any sort of "renewal" discount (I doubt it)?
Edit: I see that the new yearly price is $79.99 (up from $69.99). but also that the price hike happens on March 26, 2021 which is after Falcon and the Winter Soldier premieres. That said, I forgot that Raya is going to be "Premiere Access" like Mulan so it isn't really relevant to the price hike discussion as much.

Does anyone know if there are still plans for a second season of Jeff Goldblum? I know that it was renewed for a second season shortly after the first season ended, or just before. But, you know, covid. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, this is hands down the best original series on D+. Hopefully a second season will happen at some point in the future.
Would also love to see a second season of Prop Culture.

So this is what Disney meant when they said that Hulu/Star would have 'adult content'
