Although the holiday shopping period has passed, Disney is introducing a new promotion to kick off the year. Fresh subscribers and qualifying existing ones can access a single month of the ad-supported Disney+ and Hulu package at a reduced price of $10. This represents a $3 discount from the standard bundle fee and exceeds 58% savings when compared to subscribing to Disney+ alone at $12 monthly and Hulu separately at the same $12 rate.
It's worth noting that this promotion falls short of the previous Black Friday discount, which provided the identical bundle for $5 each month over a full year. Still, for those who overlooked that opportunity or prefer a short-term trial of the two platforms, this serves as an effective entry point.
The ad-supported version of the Disney+ and Hulu duo is available for $10 over one month.
Together, Disney+ and Hulu form a well-rounded streaming duo that combines wholesome entertainment with mature programming and broadcast essentials. Disney+ offers an extensive collection of animated features, major film series, and proprietary material from brands like Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, and National Geographic. Viewers can find almost all Star Wars movies and shows there, along with the complete Marvel Cinematic Universe catalog and Disney's latest cinema outings.
Hulu complements this with content geared toward older audiences, including ongoing television series, episodes from networks available the day after airing, and an expanding selection of critically praised original productions. It features programs such as The Bear, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Only Murders in the Building, plus various comedies, suspense stories, and factual films that often earn nominations. Additionally, it provides next-day access to ABC and FX programming, proving valuable for those who have ditched traditional TV but wish to stay current with evening broadcasts.
The Basic Duo package merges these services into one account, streamlining access to diverse offerings without managing separate logins. Ads appear on both services in this level, yet the cost benefits substantially outweigh individual subscriptions. For numerous families, this setup strikes a reasonable balance for gaining such broad entertainment options.
