Beyond Disney+: 10 Hidden Gems for Families on Streaming Platforms

Disney+ offers a vast collection of family-friendly content beyond its own productions. This is thanks to partnerships with other studios and streaming services, including Hulu, National Geographic, History Channel, and ESPN+. Among the many shows available on the platform are several non-Disney series that are highly recommended for families.

Pompeii: Out of Time With Tom Hiddleston is a miniseries that delves into the history of Mt. Vesuvius's devastating eruption in AD 79. Using ancient records and modern technology, it tells the stories of real people who may have survived the disaster.

Other notable non-Disney series include I Draw, You Cook, which combines art and cooking to create a unique culinary experience; Limitless: Live Better Now, hosted by Chris Hemsworth, explores the science of human growth and potential; Brain Games offers interactive illusions that expose how our brains really work; The Food That Built America examines the history of iconic food brands; and Expedition Unknown follows archeologist Josh Gates as he uncovers hidden stories and treasures.
