The Top 10 Shows to Stream on Disney Plus and Hulu in 2024
If you’re looking for some new shows to binge-watch or catch up on, we’ve got you covered. As the year comes to a close, we’re taking a look at the best shows available on both Disney Plus and Hulu from 2024.
1. We Were the Lucky Ones
We Were the Lucky Ones is a heart-wrenching miniseries based on a book by Georgia Hunter, which chronicles her family’s struggles as they fought to survive World War II and the Holocaust. It’s centered around the Kurcs, a Jewish family living in Poland, who are separated when war breaks out and attempt to reunite. Some noteworthy names in this series include Joey King as the youngest sibling, Halina Kurc, and Logan Lerman as one of her brothers, Addy Kurc.
2. X-Men ‘97
As the title suggests, Marvel’s X-Men ’97 is reminiscent of the classic — and beloved — X-Men: The Animated Series. It picks up one year after the events in the ’90s-era series, which sees the return of Cyclops (Ray Chase), Jean Grey (Jennifer Hale), Storm (Alison Sealy-Smith), Wolverine (Cal Dodd), Rogue (Lenore Zann), and other familiar mutants as they face new challenges in the absence of Professor Charles Xavier.
3. Doctor Who
Doctor Who has returned for a 14th series, featuring the alien Time Lord portrayed by Ncuti Gatwa, who was first introduced as the Fifteenth Doctor during a 2023 Christmas special. The show hit Disney Plus in full this year, with the Doctor and his companion Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) investigating strange incidents across London while running into some new enemies along the way.
4. The Bear
The Bear released its third season this year, making it a good time to catch up on the Emmy-winning series. It stars Jeremy Allen White as Carmy Berzatto, a prestigious chef who moves back to Chicago after inheriting his late brother’s Italian sandwich shop. The third season only expands on the chaos in the kitchen as a stressed-out Carmy juggles issues at home and work as he tries to transform his restaurant into a Michelin-starred spot.
5. Echo
Speaking of Marvel, the company’s first TV-MA series made its debut on Disney Plus this year. Echo offers a deeper look at the skilled fighter Maya Lopez (Alaqua Cox), who first appeared as a villain in 2021’s Hawkeye. The five-episode series touches upon her Native American roots, along with her troubled backstory that left her an amputee. Lopez, who is deaf, returns to her Oklahoma hometown, where she aims to take control of an enemy’s crime ring.
6. Interior Chinatown
Interior Chinatown, based on the book by Charles Yu, stars Jimmy O. Yang as Willis Wu, an actor and waiter in a Chinatown restaurant longing to break out of his role as a background character in a procedural crime show. However, things start to change once Willis witnesses a crime and detective Lana Lee (Chloe Bennet) asks him for help solving the case.
