What Were The Most Popular Disney+ Shows in 2021?
As we kick off a new year, we wanted to take a minute to look back at another year of digital streaming on Disney+. 2021 brought us more Marvel with three new series, Star Wars (AKA all things Baby Yoda) and so much more. If you’ve wondered what the most popular programs on Disney+ were last year then it’s What’s On Disney+ to the rescue. This website is a phenomenal resource for Disney fans and they’ve gone through the painstaking process of sifting through the data to bring us answers.
So let’s dive in and take a look and the series that keep Disney+ subscribers coming back.
1) The Simpsons
One of Disney’s biggest gold mines in the acquisition of Fox, was the entire back catalog of The Simpsons. Disney has placed all of the thirty three seasons of the show on Disney+ making it a treasure trove of Springfield awesomeness. It should come as no surprise that with over 700 episodes, Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie top this list.
2) Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
Proof that Disney+ is and will remain a popular streaming option with tiny tots is the prominence of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, a popular Disney Junior program. According to What’s On Disney+, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is regularly the most popular program on Disney+ with episodes consistently trending.

Another popular show for families, Bluey follows the adventures of a 6 year old puppy named Bluey who lives with her family and who plays intricate games that unfold in fun and unpredictable ways.
4) Jessie
Here’s one from the vaults that remains popular to this day. This Disney Channel live-action series following the adventures of a New York City Nanny and the children in her charge still remains a hit with fans of all ages. This is most definitely helped by social media trends including memes and TikTok challenges based on the show!
