Disney Plus has grown big enough to need a top 10 list


As Disney Plus has grown, finding things to watch has become increasingly challenging. So the streaming service is rolling out a top 10 list featured on the home screen in hopes of improving discoverability.
It’s not the most novel addition; really, it looks just like similar lists you’d find in competitive services like Netflix and Apple TV Plus. But it’s become a necessary feature as the lineup on Disney Plus has expanded quite a bit over the years, with original shows and movies, along with the integration of Hulu.
According to Disney, the ranking “takes several factors into account, including total views at the episode and movie level within a day and the growing popularity of new titles released during that time frame.” The company adds that “views are a component” but “not the sole determining factor” of what gets featured.
The list also takes into account age-ratings, so you shouldn’t see R-rated movies in your list if the parental settings are set properly. Good news for any parents trying to keep their kids away from Deadpool and Wolverine next month.
If nothing else, the change points to a maturation of Disney Plus, which started out with a relatively scant library that has steadily grown to the point that finding new episodes of Agatha All Along or Bob’s Burgers can actually be difficult. And with some big series on the horizon, it’s coming at a good time.
