The recent Disney-Google fallout went beyond YouTube TV<\/a> subscribers losing access to all Disney channels. Disney also pulled its entire movie catalog from Google TV and YouTube and dropped support for Google from its movie syncing service, Movies Anywhere<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Although the companies settled their disagreement by November 14 and restored all Disney channels<\/a> on YouTube TV, Disney didn\u2019t relist its movies on Google\u2019s digital storefronts until the end of last month. Nearly a month later, users can now finally link their Google accounts to Movies Anywhere to access movies purchased from Google Play and YouTube.<\/p>\n

According to 9to5Google<\/a>, affected users have started receiving an email announcing the change, with an option to reconnect Google Play and YouTube to Movies Anywhere. Users can click the link in the email to reconnect their account and regain access.<\/p>\n

Reconnect your Google account to Movies Anywhere<\/h2>\n

If you haven\u2019t received the email yet, you can manually reconnect your Google account from Movies Anywhere\u2019s settings. To do so, open the drop-down menu in the top-right corner, select Settings, and then choose the Manage Retailers option from the sidebar. <\/p>\n

Click the Connect button next to Google\u2019s listing, and follow the on-screen instructions to reconnect your account. Once that\u2019s done, you should once again be able to access movies purchased from Google Play and YouTube within Movies Anywhere.<\/p>\n

With Google back as a Movies Anywhere partner, users caught in the middle of the Disney-Google dispute can breathe a sigh of relief. This update effectively closes one of last remaining consequences of the standoff and brings things back to normal.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tNetflix reveals trailer and release date for Stranger Things animated spinoff Tales From \u201985\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tHawkins returns in a new animated form.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Stranger Things might have wrapped up its main story on Netflix last year, but the franchise is far from done. Netflix has now dropped the first trailer for a brand-new animated spinoff, Stranger Things: Tales From \u201985, keeping the world of Hawkins alive with a fresh adventure set to arrive later this year.<\/p>\n

The original Stranger Things series ended after five seasons and a massive finale. Yet, both fans and creators felt that there were still corners of this universe left to explore. That feeling clearly stuck with the Duffer Brothers, who are helping guide this animated offshoot in a new and playful direction.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tYou can now enjoy Substack on a TV, if that\u2019s your idea of fun times\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

Substack has carved out a massive niche for itself as the “quiet corner” of the internet\u2014the place you go to escape the noise of social media and actually read. It is where you sip your morning coffee while scrolling through a thoughtful newsletter from your favourite writer. But with the surprise launch of its new beta TV app, the platform is making a bold play to leave your inbox and claim a spot in your living room, right next to the titans like Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube.<\/p>\n

The app, which has just rolled out for Apple TV and Google TV, basically takes the video content and livestreams from the creators you already subscribe to and splashes them onto the biggest screen in your house. It is a smart, calculated move toward what the tech industry calls a “lean-back” experience. Instead of hunching over a laptop or squinting at a smartphone screen to watch a forty-minute interview or a deep-dive lecture, you can now throw it on the TV while you cook dinner, fold laundry, or just relax on the couch.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

YouTube TV is making major moves to win over subscribers. After announcing plans to roll out new genre-specific bundles in 2026 that will let users tailor their subscriptions and potentially cut monthly costs, the platform is now offering new subscribers a longer trial period and a hefty discount for the first two months.<\/p>\n

Typically, YouTube TV offers a 7-day free trial, after which subscribers pay $82.99 per month for the streaming service. Under the new promotion, subscribers can enjoy a 10-day free trial and pay just $59.99 per month for the first two months.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
