Disney’s Netflix rival is here, serving up Marvel, Star Wars and Pixar originals, along with a post-modern revamp of High School Musical and every episode of The Simpsons.

This month sees Star Wars go to a whole new galaxy far, far away with the anime anthology Visions, while The Walking Dead’s 11th season is joined by another adult-friendly exclusive: the long-awaited adaptation of comic book Y: The Last Man. And, to cap it off, there’s a chance to catch the underrated Stumptown (fresh from Amazon Prime) and Channel 4 drama Deadwater Fell.
