Disney+ Highlights Popular Content with New Top 10 List. Want to see what the rest of the country is watching on Disney+ so you do not feel left out and might miss out on the water cooler talk? Now you can check out the top 10 most watched shows and movies with the new Top 10 feature on Disney+.
Disney+ has some of the best content in the streaming world, featuring iconic brands from Star Wars to Disney to Pixar to Marvel to National Geographic. Not to mention this year’s launch of Hulu on Disney+ in the U.S. for Bundle subscribers. With all that great programming, it can be daunting to figure out what to watch and what’s getting the most attention.
Now, Disney+ is making it easier for consumers to find and enjoy everything the service has to offer.
On Wednesday, Disney+ began introducing a new Top 10 Today set — a collection that showcases what is popular on the service in each country or territory on any given day, while driving engagement and discovery of new titles. Starting today, subscribers will start seeing the collection set on their Home screen.

Here’s what you need to know:
How do you determine which titles are featured in the Top 10 Today set?
Top 10 Today will be reflective of Disney+’s on-demand catalog – factoring in both the content available to you based on your subscription (like Hulu on Disney+ for Bundle subscribers) and settings based on your profile (like content ratings). On any given day, the set will feature 10 different series and/or films that are currently popular on Disney+ in your country or territory. For series, engagement is reflected at the episode level, which comes in handy when you need help identifying when new episodes have been released.
By “popular,” do you just mean a list of the series and movies that are the most viewed that day?
The Top 10 Today set 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.
Are you leveraging the same formula for specific title performance statements (like, total stream time divided by runtime available) to determine this list?
No. As mentioned, views are a component of the Top 10 Today formula but it’s not the sole determining factor.
If I am a Bundle subscriber, will the Top 10 Today set on Disney+ feature Hulu titles as well?
Yes, the Top 10 Today set will reflect all content available to you based on your subscription plan.
Why is my Top 10 Today different from other profiles on my Disney+ account?
Certain profile settings, including content rating level, are factored into the Top 10 Today list for each individual profile.
Will the Top 10 Today list be available on all Disney+ profiles?
At launch, the Top 10 Today set will not be available to Junior Mode profiles.
