Last Updated: May 26 – June is another harsh month for Disney+ ‘s Nat Geo brand tile. Hulu continues to be the unannounced, “new” streaming home to Nat Geo and Disney+’s upcoming content continues to be composed of previous no-shows or rescheduled content while recent seasons take longer and longer to arrive…
Here are the National Geographic series and specials from the past 3 years that need to get added to Disney+ in the USA.
As you know, we are very angry that Disney has chosen to quietly convert Hulu into the new home of Nat Geo with Disney+ only receiving scraps. Tracking this content has become very frustrating and disappointing.
