They should keep it separate. If Disney was smart, they’d split into two companies. The Disney brand that owns family-oriented IP, and a more adult-oriented brand that owns all the other crap. There’s no need for Disney to own ESPN for example.

It all came from the Fox deal when Disney bought everything except Fox News for 71 billion. They needed content for Disney+ that appealed to adults. Hulu has also been rolled out to other countries and is known as Star,why the name change? Zero clue.

TIL Star = Hulu. I thought it was just their more grownup-oriented channel
