The Best of Disney+ This Weekend

X-Men '97 X-Men '97 Disney+ · Action · Wed · Streaming IMDb

Wolverine and Morph join an uneasy group of former rivals in “Weapon X, Lies, and DVDs.” Their target is the latest experiment connected to Weapon X, which turns an old source of trauma into an immediate threat. X-Men ‘97 continues to use familiar history without leaving its characters safely inside it. The episode puts people with reasons to distrust one another on the same side, at least temporarily, and asks whether stopping the experiment matters more than settling what happened between them before.

The Simpsons Specials The Simpsons Specials Disney+ · Animation · Fri · Streaming

“Simpsley” sends Marge to Italy with a job: persuade the wealthy Skinner to return home. His lifestyle begins to change her priorities, and the situation becomes more complicated when she meets his houseguest, Homer Simpsley. The Simpsons Specials uses the regular cast in short stories that can rearrange their roles without needing to preserve the usual setup. This installment turns Marge into a con artist caught between completing the assignment and staying inside a life that has become much more appealing.

Adventure Time: Side Quests Adventure Time: Side Quests Disney+ · Comedy · Mon · Streaming IMDb

Finn enters a crossbow tournament in “Bro’s & Arrows” because he wants to prove himself. Jake sees the problem more clearly: Finn is bad at it, and saying so may be harder than letting the contest continue. Adventure Time: Side Quests returns to smaller, self-contained trips through the Land of Ooo, with Finn and Jake creating as many complications as they solve. The episode builds its conflict from pride, friendship, and the familiar difficulty of telling someone the truth before the consequences become public.

The Doomies The Doomies Disney+ · Animation · Fri · Streaming IMDb

“Crepe Day” begins with Bobby and Romy convinced that something evil is hiding in their coastal town. Their search for monsters is not entirely misplaced, since the pair have already opened a portal to the underworld and turned the area into a center of supernatural activity. The Doomies follows the two friends as they investigate problems they helped create, usually without a reliable plan for containing them. The first episode establishes that the town’s ordinary appearance is no longer useful evidence that anything inside it is normal.

Chibiverse Chibiverse Disney+ · Adventure · Sun · Streaming IMDb

“Return of Pebble” brings another group of Disney characters into the compact, exaggerated world of Chibiverse. The series reshapes familiar television characters into chibi form and uses them to revisit adventures across several franchises. With no episode description supplied, the card stays with the confirmed setup rather than guessing which characters drive this installment. The appeal is the crossover structure itself, where figures from different Disney shows can share the same short-form space without needing their original worlds to line up neatly.

Spidey and His Amazing Friends Spidey and His Amazing Friends Disney+ · Action · Mon · 7:00 AM ET

“Lights, Sirens, Action” opens Season 5 with Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and Ghost-Spider continuing to solve problems as a team. The series is built around a younger version of superhero work, where cooperation matters as much as the ability to stop a villain. No episode description was included, so there is no reason to invent the emergency behind the title. The useful part is that a new season has started, with the same focus on sharing responsibility and learning how to act as part of a group.

Mysteries of Ancient Medicine Mysteries of Ancient Medicine Disney+ · Medical · Thu · 9:00 PM ET

“The King’s Evil, The Leper Skull, Ancient Cancer Treatment” examines several medical ideas from the ancient world through archaeology, forensic evidence, and reconstruction. The series looks at remedies and procedures that could be ingenious, dangerous, or both, depending on what healers understood and what materials were available. This installment moves across disease, diagnosis, and treatment rather than staying with one culture or method. No episode description was supplied, so the title provides the boundaries without inviting extra claims about what the evidence proves.

Voyagers: Exploring Pacific Waters Voyagers: Exploring Pacific Waters Disney+ · Nature · Thu · 9:00 PM ET IMDb

“Adventures to NewWorlds” begins with the people who crossed vast sections of the Pacific in handmade canoes and settled islands separated by enormous distances. Voyagers: Exploring Pacific Waters follows the navigation knowledge, practical skill, and persistence required to connect places including Guam, Hawaii, Rapa Nui, and Fiji. The story covers more than travel, since each successful voyage created new communities and a wider ocean network. The first episode frames the Pacific as a connected world built through repeated journeys rather than an empty space between islands.
