I wonder if Moon Knight, which is said to be much more violent than the average MCU fare, will be categorized with the Netflix shows.

Is "Defenders franchise" the official name for those shows now?

Well it's not like Disney+ is about to list them as "Marvel Netflix", is it? ;)

Seriously though, I think its the closest one can get to a meaningful umbrella term, even though Punisher is only tangentially related. (which reminds, me, I still need to get around to watching season 2 . . . )

They're R-rated shows on a PG-13 service.

The N-word gets used more than once in Luke Cage. You think that's going to make it onto Disney intact?

Disney is aware and has responded accordingly

https://collider.com/disney-plus-parental-controls-what-to-know/


New parental controls coming March 16th in preparation for the Netflix shows being added

"Beginning March 16, all Disney+ subscribers will be asked to update their Parental Controls. This includes the option to select content ratings restrictions for each profile, as well as to add a PIN to lock profiles, and enable a Kid-Proof Exit question for Kids Profiles," reads a statement from the streaming platform. For the first time, parents will be able to set up separate, locked profiles for kids, and restrict the content on said profiles based on content ratings.

I was pretty confident they were going to Hulu, so this is a surprise. I wonder if we'll see any other R rated Fox stuff come to Disney+ too now?

Yes the announcement said that mature content will be coming to D+. I think D+ needs a reorg at this point. The Disney 'channel' has more content than the others put together, and then lumping touchstone, fox, netflix shows etc into 1 chan also makes no sense.

This is also a big blow to the viability of Hulu. Neither Disney nor Universal need it any more.

Not really, it's got plenty of it's own original content, and thinking about it more, I really can't see them putting things like The King's Man/Kingsmen, Predator, Alien, or Planet of Apes stuff on Disney+. Hulu also has all of the day after shows from ABC, NBC, Fox.

All of that adult stuff is on D+ in every country but the US, just under the parental controlled "Star" name.

They've been managing to keep shooting of "Secret invasion" pretty, well, secret but a newspaper prop suggests a bit of the plot and possibly a guest star.

I see the president from Iron Man 3 and Agents of SHIELD has run out his term. I wonder if he was blipped while in office and how that would work.

Maybe he can join the team. Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Power Man & Iron Fist, Moon Knight, maybe Colleen Wing and Misty Knight, maybe Ghost Rider from Agents of SHIELD. I'd certainly watch that.
 
Not sure if they want to bring back the less critically acclaimed shows such as Iron Fist or Punisher...

A revamped Iron Fist could work. There was a lot about that series that I liked, but the show was weighed down by its supporting characters (meaning the Rand family) in the second season--and I don't think anyone would object to a recasting of the main character.
 
So how are these shows going to work on Disney+? All nudity and violence will be covered by CGI Daryl Hannah hair?
