Disney Plus Hits 103 Million Subscribers
The streaming service is up 70 million subscribers from last year.
The Disney+ streaming service closed its second fiscal quarter of 2021 which ended on April 3 for Disney with 103.6 million subscribers. This number is up from 33.5 million in March 2020, according to a recent release from Disney.
These numbers also include Disney+ Hotstar subscription numbers, which launched in India on April 3, 2020 and in Indonesia on September 5, 2020. Comparatively, Netflix recently hit 208 million, Amazon Prime has 200 million, HBO Max has 44 million, and Peacock has 42 million.

Marvel s MCU is 13 years old now. What began with 2008 s Iron Man has become a sprawling spider web of interconnected shows and movies.
It s a franchise masterpiece, a shared universe masterminded by Kevin Feige that - with the arrival of WandaVision and The Falcon And The Winter Soldier - has shifted into its Phase 4 plans. But not every new Marvel show will have a share in this universe.
While many fans had hoped that Hulu s upcoming show Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K. - which is without a doubt one of the strangest Marvel shows yet - would have some connection with what s going on in Phase 4 right now, its showrunner Jordan Blum has revealed that it is its own thing, and why he is happy with this.

Netflix swings the axe once more.
07 May 2021
If Netflix isn t happy with a show, then it has no problems cancelling it - and it s happened again with one of its most high-profile series of 2021.
The Irregulars was meant to be a multi-season hit for Netflix, reimagining the work of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and set in Sherlock Holmes Victorian London. It was based on The Baker Street Irregulars which featured in a number of Sherlock Holmes stories and had all the makings of a hit.
Despite it hitting the Top 10 most watched on Netflix and even nudging ahead of Disney Plus big Marvel show The Falcon And The Winter Soldier in the US (according to Nielsen ratings) the series hasn t escaped the chop - as first reported by Deadline.
