Now that we’ve outlined your Valentine’s Day plans, we’re here to help you sort through the incredible amount of content on Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+. These platforms truly have something for everyone, so here’s a look at some of your best options for date night.
1Experience the Ultimate Disney Fantasy With Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings
Exclusively available on Disney+ beginning Feb. 14, 2020, the new season of this docuseries is the perfect date night viewing for you and your valentine. The five-episode series follows five couples on their happily-ever-after journeys as they experience the wedding of a lifetime at exquisite Disney locations. From horse-drawn carriage rides through the Magic Kingdom, to the very first wedding held at Pandora - The World of Avatar, to incredible, surprise serenades by celebrity musical guests, these weddings make for perfect viewing for a romantic night in.
2Binge-Worthy Romantic Comedies
There are literally dozens of romantic comedies on offer between Disney+ and Hulu, so there’s no way you’ll be able to choose just one! In fact, you’ll probably want to plan your watchlist a few days in advance so you don’t spend half the night browsing titles. Some of our favorites include animated Disney classics like Lady and the Tramp and Cinderella, modern classics like Never Been Kissed and 10 Things I Hate About You, and brand-new originals like High School Musical The Musical: The Series. There’s truly an embarrassment of riches.
3Intergalactic Love Stories
If you’re a couple of the action/adventure persuasion, look no further than the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Amid high-speed space chases and interspecies hijinks, Marvel movies feature some truly romantic storylines. For Valentine’s Day viewing, revisit Guardians of the Galaxy volumes one and two, where Star Lord and Gamora share some serious sparks. Featuring amazing onscreen chemistry by the lead actors, Guardians of the Galaxy is a low-key rom-com that serves up way more twists, turns, and laughs than your average date-night viewing.
4A Celebrity Matchup For The Ages
If ball is life for you and your boo, tune into ESPN and ESPN+, the exclusive source for the NBA 2020 All-Star Celebrity Game. Airing and streaming on Feb. 14, 2020 at 7 p.m. ET, the game will feature famous comedians, actors, and rappers in a full-court matchup, with each team boasting a star from the WNBA as well. If last year’s game is any indication, you can expect professional level smack-talking from players and commentators alike. Regardless of who wins, this game is always one of the most entertaining NBA games of the year!
5The Gift That Keeps On Giving
Between Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+, you’ll have access to hundreds of movies, TV shows, and games. We recommend making a V-Day watch list when you first sign up so you can begin to map out your date night favorites. After Feb. 14, you’ll be free to jump into a wider range of content as you rediscover the TV and movies of your childhood, catch up with newer programs that you’ve missed along the way, and access new, original content offered across all three platforms. This bundle package is a year-round gift for you and your sweetheart; you’ll never wonder what to do with a night in again!
