The arrival of Fall means a lot of things to a lot of people, but first and foremost it officially means it's time to stay the hell inside. (Well, that was already going on this year, but you know.) The chillier the weather, the more you're gonna' need those streaming services to start uploading new titles, and Disney+ just announced what to expect for its Fall 2020 slate. Baby Yoda fans rejoice, The Mandalorian season 2 is on there, as is (surprisingly!) the live-action MCU series WandaVision. Fall will also see the arrival of The Simpsons season 31, the docu-series Marvel's 616, and the superpowered Disney+ original film Secret Society of Second-Born Royals.
Check out the official video teaser for the Disney+ Fall lineup below, followed by the full list of new and premiering titles. If you're looking for something just a bit spookier, here is Netflix's horror-focused lineup for "Netflix and Chills" 2020.
