depends on your age I am 38 years old I grew up in the 80's and 90's for people like me in the Generation X generation who experienced the 80's we still love 80's nostalgia heck look at the 80's nostalgia in Stranger Things people love the heck out of that show! The Only people who love 90's nostalgia really are kids my nephews age he was born in 2008 and kids my Niece's age she was born in 2001 last year of High School my nephew just started middle School. when I was in High School in the 90's 70's nostalgia was big with my generation we all thought we were modern day Hippies!
I was born in '94 and am obsessed with '90s nostalgia.

They're doing a test launch of the service in the Netherlands, and there is Muppet stuff thankfully:

Nice to see something. Sadly no Muppets tonight, muppet show, mtm, mfs, none of the direct to video stuff....

Just the same stuff they've had in digital form for awhile.

I am hoping if the Muppet stuff they have now does well on Disney+, they'll dig deeper into the archives. I heard Disney was doing something behind the scenes regarding the original 80s Muppet Babies. Perhaps it will be one of the things we'll see in the future, and hopefully it will lead to other Muppet shows and specials...

Or Muppets on Wheels.
omg, what a weird era hahaha... "Remember all those legendary Muppets you grew up with and love? Let's just replace them with a bunch of faceless randos!"

I guess they didn't want to disparage the other characters.

Yet, they used Scooter as a whatnot.

Oh, and speaking of Muppets, I noticed Studio DC: Almost Live hasn't gotten an official release in the United States. (despite a DVD release being announced at the 2009 D23 Expo) I wonder if both Studio DC specials will be on Disney+...

Saw this and had to comment.

I actually signed up for Disney+ this holiday weekend just so I could finally get around to finishing the 2015 show. For us in the US, ALL of the movies are on the site, as is the 2015 show. I did read an article that stated the original Muppet Show is coming next year sometime, along with some of the Marvel stuff that's currently on Netflix and elsewhere.

So, at least for the US, we're only missing Muppets Tonight and the original Muppet Show.

EDIT - I should say the theatrical movies, in case someone was looking for the TV ones. Those aren't there, but all of the theater releases, from the original Muppets Movie to Muppets Most Wanted.

Oh yes, what a shame. No Muppets From Space. Or Muppets on Wheels.
What the heck is Muppets on Wheels???
