The UK welcomed Disney+ plus with open arms when it finally arrived on March 24. It couldn’t have come at a better time, helping many take a much needed break from the current news cycle. The highly anticipated streaming platform launched with over 500 films spanning Disney, Marvel, and Pixar and more than 300 TV series including an exciting roster of never-seen-before shows. So, as many of the UK residents' current daily activities include watching heaps of television, what is the schedule for Disney + TV series?

Well, along with their classics (anyone else re-watching Cinderella?), Disney has launched its new streaming platform with 14 original series, including High School Musical: The Musical: The Series and The World According To Jeff Goldblum, a documentary series where arguably the world's most stylish actor investigates everything from coffee to video games to denim and more. All episodes for these series were available on launch, providing a great deal of marathon-watching material. For the majority of these, episodes are released weekly every Friday at 8am.

What Is The Viewing Schedule for High School Musical: The Musical: The Series?

It’s hard to believe that the original High School Musical movie franchise featuring a young Zac Efron and his seriously strong fringe is now 15-years-old. Disney+ has given it a present-day reboot with a whole new Gen-Z cast. The 10-part series sees a group of East High theatre kids take on the legendary roles of Troy, Gabriella and the rest of the original characters in, well… a high school musical (hence the very long title). High School Musical: The Musical: The Series premiered on March 24 and a brand new “song-filled” episode is released weekly on Fridays at 8pm.

What is the viewing schedule for The Mandalorian on Disney+ UK?

Star Wars fans received a double dose of the exclusive new action on March 24 when The Mandalorian arrived with two episodes on launch day. This show is the first live action series in the Star Wars franchise and sees a lone gunfighter make his way through the outer reaches of the galaxy.

Already got through the first two shows? Well, episode three being released today (March 27) at 8 p.m. Moving forward, each new episode will be dropped on Fridays also.

What is the viewing schedule for Star Wars: The Clone War on Disney+ UK?

As of March 27, Disney+ are also giving UK Star Wars fan a chance to catch up with the US as it releases two episodes of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars every Friday. From Friday 17 April, one episode will be released weekly, in line with the U.S. This is to ensure fans can watch together around the world, say Disney + bosses.

It's been a great start for Disney + UK, as it is pitted against some of the world's most popular streaming competitors. Question is, where to start on our Disney + adventure? Luckily for you, Bustle have compiled seven films and series to add to your watch list, including all 30 years worth of the Simpsons (let's face it, we have time right now).
