5 Best Disney+ Series to Binge-Watch This Week (November 9–15, 2026)

Disney+ UK’s November 9–15, 2026, watchlist offers one Marvel finale, a three-episode return to Rutshire, two continuing dramas and a fantasy catch-up. Rivals Season 2 Part 2 begins on November 11, when VisionQuest also concludes its eight-episode run. All’s Fair and The Remarried Empress both add episodes that Wednesday. Percy Jackson and the Olympians is the series to revisit ahead of Season 3, which begins on November 20. That mix makes the week as much about episode timing as choosing a genre.

The schedule is easy to misread if “binge” means every episode at once. All’s Fair Season 2 opened with three episodes on November 4 and then moves weekly. The Remarried Empress premiered four episodes early on November 3 in the UK, with two more November 11. VisionQuest has one last episode November 11. Rivals returns with three episodes that day and then releases one episode weekly. We explain the cadence for each title so you can decide whether to catch up now or follow as it goes.

The ranking follows the five series in the list you provided: Percy Jackson at number five, The Remarried Empress at four, All’s Fair at three, VisionQuest at two and Rivals at one. We consider how compelling the show is to watch this week, how much story is available and whether the title benefits from earlier episodes. Percy Jackson is not a new release during this window; its value is as a warm-up for Season 3. The others have a new episode, a finale or a new batch during the week.

A note on regions: Disney+ UK confirms the British availability and episode patterns for All’s Fair, The Remarried Empress and VisionQuest. Disney’s wider release calendar sometimes labels those shows Hulu Originals, because Hulu is the US brand; in the UK, they appear on Disney+. Rivals also streams on Disney+ UK. Always use your own account’s listing as the final check for the available episodes, language tracks and subtitles.

If you are new to a show, do not begin at its mid-season return just because fresh episodes are trending. Rivals Season 2 Part 2 follows six earlier episodes; VisionQuest’s finale follows seven. All’s Fair builds on Season 1’s legal firm and relationships. The Remarried Empress is a new adaptation that can be started from episode one, while Percy Jackson is most rewarding as a continuous quest. We flag those differences below so this guide remains useful to first-time viewers and returning fans.

Think of “binge” as a useful stretch of viewing rather than a promise that every season is complete. Rivals and All’s Fair are releasing weekly, The Remarried Empress is partway through its ten-episode season, VisionQuest concludes this week, and Percy Jackson is a chance to catch up before November 20. Disney+ UK is the final source for availability, audio tracks and subtitle options on your account.

5. Percy Jackson and the Olympians — catch up before Season 3

Percy Jackson and the Olympians is the fantasy catch-up on this week’s list. Season 3 begins on November 20 with a two-episode premiere, so this is a useful week to revisit the earlier adventures or start the series for the first time. Adapted from Rick Riordan’s books, the show follows Percy, a young demigod learning about his identity and the mythological world around him. Its mixture of a quest, close friendships and Olympian family drama gives viewers an easy route into the story.

Percy’s point of view is one of the show’s strengths. He does not begin with a complete map of Greek mythology; he learns its rules alongside the viewer. Gods, monsters and prophecies arrive as discoveries rather than background homework. His friendship with Annabeth and Grover gives the fantasy adventure an emotional centre, while each challenge brings questions about belonging, loyalty and what it means to be a hero before you feel ready.

Disney’s announcement confirms that Season 3 adapts The Titan’s Curse and starts November 20 with two episodes. That is outside the current week, so this is a preparation recommendation, not a claim that new Percy episodes arrive between November 9 and 15. Use the days to revisit favourite episodes, work through the existing seasons or introduce the series to someone who has not watched it. The upcoming date gives the catch-up a clear purpose.

The series is accessible for families without flattening its characters. Younger viewers can follow Percy’s discoveries and friendships; older viewers can enjoy a fresh adaptation of classical myths and the complicated relationships between children and immortal parents. The action has energy, but the show lets Percy feel angry or uncertain instead of making him an effortlessly confident hero. That balance gives the adventure room for emotional development between the monsters and prophecies.

If the first season is no longer fresh, a brief refresher on Camp Half-Blood and the central relationships will help. New viewers should begin at Season 1, since Season 2 continues the group’s story and relies on the friendships established earlier. It is a larger catch-up commitment than a three-episode batch, but the serial format rewards following the characters in order. The next season will mean more if you remember how Percy and his friends reached this point.

The mythology also makes Percy Jackson a good shared watch. After an episode, families can compare the adaptation with classical stories, talk about what a prophecy might mean or look up a figure they have just met. The show gives enough context to follow the plot while leaving space for curiosity. Viewers do not need to arrive with the books memorised, which makes the series inviting to people who are meeting Percy for the first time.

It is number five because the week’s value is preparation. The other four picks have a specific new episode, finale or returning batch within these dates, while Percy’s next season arrives five days after the guide ends. For a viewer who wants a continuing story and is happy to use this week for catch-up, it could be the best personal choice. The ranking reflects the timing of the slate, not a judgement about the series’ quality.

Why it ranks fifth: it is an engaging fantasy adventure to revisit, but Season 3 starts November 20. Best for: families, mythology fans and viewers preparing for the next quest. Where to watch: Disney+ UK; check your account for episode availability, audio and subtitles.

4. The Remarried Empress — Season 1

The Remarried Empress is a live-action Korean fantasy romance about a woman determined not to let a marriage’s end define her future. Empress Navier has helped rule the Eastern Empire beside Emperor Sovieshu. When he brings Rashta to court and asks for a divorce, Navier sets a condition: she will agree if she is allowed to marry Prince Heinrey, leader of the rival Western Kingdom. A private betrayal becomes a choice with consequences for two empires.

The romance and political stakes are woven together. Navier’s future is not only a private question of whom she loves; her marriage helps define the image and stability of an empire. Choosing a new husband could change the balance between kingdoms. That gives courtship a strategic charge: a romantic gesture may also be a political move, and marriage negotiations become an act of self-determination. The palace setting makes those consequences visible in every formal conversation.

Disney+ UK says the series began streaming early on November 3 with four episodes. Two new chapters arrive November 11, two more November 18, and the finale is scheduled for November 25. The ten-episode season is still in progress, so this week brings the next instalment rather than a complete binge. The opening four episodes establish Navier’s marriage and the emerging relationships around her, giving new viewers a meaningful starting block.

Based on a popular webtoon, the adaptation leans into palace drama’s visual pleasures: elaborate costumes, formal rooms and rules that show who holds power. Navier’s composure is not passivity; it gives her room to decide how she will respond when others expect her to accept humiliation. The satisfaction comes from watching her turn a painful reversal into a deliberate choice, then seeing that choice alter the political landscape.

This suits K-drama fans, romance viewers and anyone who enjoys court intrigue. It is live action, and its Korean performances are part of its style. Disney+ UK’s guide lists original Korean audio with English subtitles as well as a dubbed option, though the exact menu can vary by device and account. New viewers can start at episode one without reading the source webtoon; the series explains the central conflict through Navier’s story.

The show gives an active shape to the familiar wronged-wife story. Navier does not wait for the court to recognise her value; she negotiates what happens next. That turns heartbreak into a question about agency and ambition without removing the romantic appeal. A new relationship may be sincere, strategic or both, and the characters must decide how much trust can exist when love and power are so closely tied.

It ranks fourth because the premise is compelling and two fresh episodes arrive this week, but the season remains incomplete. Rivals brings three episodes at once and VisionQuest reaches its finale, giving those shows a sharper event quality. If you prefer a new romance with weekly momentum, The Remarried Empress may sit at the top of your queue. This ranking weighs the week’s schedule, not a universal quality scale.

Why it ranks fourth: it pairs royal intrigue with fantasy romance and adds two episodes this week, but remains mid-release. Best for: K-drama fans, romantic fantasy and stories about reclaiming agency. Where to watch: Disney+ UK; new episodes arrive November 11.

The Disney+ UK guide confirms the early premiere, ten-episode season and weekly schedule.

3. All’s Fair — Season 2

All’s Fair returns to Grant, Ronson & Greene, a law firm built around divorce cases and the complicated lives behind them. Kim Kardashian is back as Allura Grant, with Naomi Watts as Liberty Ronson and Niecy Nash-Betts as Emerald Greene. Season 2 puts the partners’ loyalties under pressure: shifting friendships and a major revelation threaten the business they have built. Legal cases provide one strand of drama, while relationships inside the firm keep the conflict personal.

The series treats the practice as both a workplace and a stage for questions about love, money, power and public image. The attorneys help clients manage breakups, but their own romantic histories and professional rivalries do not remain outside the office. A client’s case can echo a conflict among the partners, so a courtroom argument can reveal a personal divide. The fashion and heightened tone make All’s Fair more of a glamorous legal soap than a naturalistic procedural.

Disney+ UK confirms that Season 2 began on November 4 with three episodes, then releases one new instalment each Wednesday. The eight-episode season is scheduled to end on December 2. November 11 brings episode four, not the entire season. Those three opening episodes give a newcomer enough time to see whether the mix of legal cases and interpersonal drama works for them, while returning viewers can follow the weekly rhythm.

The ensemble is central to the show. Glenn Close returns as Dina Standish, Sarah Paulson joins as Carrington “Carr” Lane, and Teyana Taylor plays Milan. The office includes partners, protégés and clients whose lives overlap. New allegiances can unsettle existing friendships, and a major revelation threatens to change how the audience sees the firm. The legal setting gives the characters a place to collide, while the personal subplots make each new alliance matter.

Season 2 continues relationships that were introduced earlier. Season 1 explains why Allura, Liberty and Emerald built the firm, what their clients’ breakups revealed, and which tensions were already simmering among the lawyers. Disney+ UK lists the first season’s nine episodes for catch-up. Watching from the start makes shifting loyalties easier to follow, especially when a decision seems to violate a friendship that once appeared stable.

Approach All’s Fair as a character-led legal soap. Courtroom work is part of the premise, but the main pleasure is watching ambitious people manage their careers and private lives in the same professional world. Its heightened style, recognisable cast and reversals suit viewers who enjoy glamorous workplace ensembles. Those looking for a tightly technical procedural may want another pick; those who like relationship drama with a legal backdrop can start with the three-episode opening batch.

It sits at number three because there is a new chapter this week and enough of the new season to establish its current conflict, but its Wednesday cadence means the full run is not yet available. VisionQuest has a defined ending, while Rivals gives viewers three episodes together. If legal-soap drama is your favourite genre, though, All’s Fair may be the one you most look forward to each Wednesday.

Why it ranks third: the three-episode premiere gives the season a strong start and episode four arrives November 11. Best for: legal soap, glossy workplaces and stories about love and loyalty. Where to watch: Disney+ UK; weekly episodes continue through December 2.

2. VisionQuest — Season 1

VisionQuest brings Paul Bettany’s Vision to the centre of a Marvel story about identity, memory and what makes a person human. Rebooted and living quietly in Edinburgh, Vision tries to make sense of memories that do not feel like his own. His privacy ends when a bounty hunter comes for him, forcing him to flee with Thomas Shepard, a mysterious boy who may be his son. James Spader’s Ultron is among the AI personas embedded in Vision’s programming, offering an unsettling voice in that search for meaning.

The series concludes the thematic trilogy that began with WandaVision and continued with Agatha All Along. Those shows move through different genres, but each explores identity, grief, power and the stories people tell themselves. VisionQuest turns the questions inward: Vision must decide what to do with a past assembled from technology, relationships and memories he cannot fully trust. Ultron knows Vision’s history and can manipulate that uncertainty, making the search for self a dangerous one.

Disney+ UK lists eight episodes. Episodes one and two arrived October 14, three and four October 21, five and six October 28, episode seven November 4 and the finale November 11. This week completes a story that has been unfolding for a month. Existing viewers get the last chapter; newcomers should start at episode one rather than skipping to the ending. The Disney+ UK episode menu is the final check for the episodes available on an account.

The mystery is as much about relationships as about the bounty. Thomas may be connected to Vision in a way that matters emotionally, even if the science is difficult to accept. The AI characters—F.R.I.D.A.Y., E.D.I.T.H., J.A.R.V.I.S. and Ultron—offer competing ideas about what Vision might become. The premise asks whether memory makes identity, whether someone can choose a new purpose and how much of the self is shaped by the people who remember us.

Marvel viewers who know the wider story will feel the weight of Vision and Ultron meeting again. Still, Disney+ UK frames this as an identity crisis, so the immediate plot can be followed without a complete Marvel rewatch. WandaVision and Agatha All Along give extra context for Vision’s past, but this season introduces its situation clearly enough for viewers who know the main characters and want a focused new story.

The series blends science-fiction ideas with character drama. Vision’s artificial nature does not make his feelings less real; it makes his effort to understand them the heart of the show. Ultron’s influence turns self-discovery into a threat, and Thomas gives Vision a person to protect as well as a puzzle to solve. It suits viewers who like thoughtful Marvel storytelling alongside action and suspense.

VisionQuest ranks second because its finale gives the week a clear endpoint and the whole eight-episode season can be enjoyed as a complete run. Rivals edges ahead with three new episodes and a broader ensemble return. For viewers who have followed Vision’s story through the season, the finale may be the week’s most satisfying release. The ranking reflects the number of new episodes as well as the pleasure of a finished arc.

Why it ranks second: the eight-episode Marvel story concludes November 11, offering a complete run and a firm ending. Best for: Vision and Ultron fans, science-fiction character stories and the WandaVision trilogy. Where to watch: Disney+ UK; episodes one through seven are available ahead of the finale.

1. Rivals — Season 2, Part 2

Rivals takes the top spot because Part 2 restarts one of the week’s liveliest ensemble dramas with three new episodes. The series returns to Rutshire, where the rivalry between television companies Corinium and Venturer spills into private lives. Tony Baddingham and Declan O’Hara remain locked in a professional battle, while Rupert Campbell-Black, Taggie O’Hara and their wider circle face the consequences of ambition, affairs and secrets. Disney+ UK brings the new batch on November 11.

Based on Jilly Cooper’s Rutshire Chronicles, Rivals thrives in a world where business competition, social status and romantic entanglements are impossible to separate. A television franchise is at stake, but so are marriages, friendships and reputations. The glossy 1980s setting makes the parties and country-house life inviting; the sharper drama comes from characters using charm, influence and gossip as tools. The series works as social comedy as much as relationship drama, with consequences beneath the spectacle.

Season 2 is split into two six-episode parts. The first six episodes are available, and the second half begins November 11 with episodes seven through nine. The last three arrive weekly on November 18, 25 and December 2. This makes the opening week a generous return: three new chapters after the mid-season break, then a weekly road to the finale. It is not a complete-season drop, but a three-episode launch gives viewers time to settle back into Rutshire.

Part 2 picks up after the mid-season finale and raises the stakes in the Corinium–Venturer fight. Disney’s season guide describes tragedy, scandal and betrayal: Tony tightens his grip, leaks threaten families and careers, and Declan fights to save Venturer. Rupert has to confront questions of love and loyalty, while Taggie faces difficult choices inside the franchise war. The ensemble structure means a single revelation can affect several relationships and business alliances at once.

Rivals is a return for existing viewers, not a sensible first episode for someone new. Season 1 establishes the social world and rivalries; the first half of Season 2 develops the current conflicts and ends on a mid-season turn. Disney+ UK has the earlier episodes, so a catch-up is possible. Starting at episode seven would preserve the glamour but lose why certain betrayals and alliances matter.

The show has a cheeky, romantic and satirical tone. Its 1980s details create a world where TV executives, aristocrats and ambitious journalists share a compact social circle. A private indiscretion can become a public weapon, and a professional setback can reveal an old insecurity. A dinner or production meeting can shift several plotlines. The result is glossy without being weightless, with a lively ensemble that makes social manoeuvring part of the fun.

Three episodes make Rivals the most binge-friendly new drop this week. You can watch a substantial batch in one evening, re-enter the season after the break and still have weekly episodes to anticipate. That cadence suits a story built on secrets and gossip: each new chapter gives viewers something to debate. If you prefer a complete run, the finale is scheduled for December 2. Until then, treat Part 2 as a current release rather than a finished binge.

It ranks first because the return combines a sizeable batch with a vivid ensemble and a clear conflict. VisionQuest has a cleaner endpoint, but Rivals is the strongest appointment for viewers who want romance, rivalry and scandal together. The three-episode launch gives it more immediate new story than the other entries, and weekly releases keep the series in the conversation through the end of November.

Why it ranks first: Part 2 opens with three episodes November 11, bringing the season’s power struggle back with personal stakes across the ensemble. Best for: British drama, romance, social satire and 1980s settings. Where to watch: Disney+ UK; episodes 7–9 arrive November 11, then one weekly episode through December 2.

Disney’s UK press announcement confirms the second batch’s return. The official episode guide confirms the three-episode start and 12-episode season.

Explore Amazon Prime. Disney+ UK carries Rivals; this Amazon link does not include access to the series.

How to choose your next Disney+ watch

Pick Rivals for the week’s largest new batch, VisionQuest if you want a finale, All’s Fair for weekly legal-soap drama, The Remarried Empress for fantasy romance, or Percy Jackson if you want to prepare for Season 3. The schedule matters: Rivals offers three new episodes, VisionQuest only has its final chapter, and the other dramas each add new instalments. Match your choice to the time you have and the sort of story you enjoy.

The amount of backstory varies. The Remarried Empress is a new adaptation and can be sampled at episode one. Percy Jackson takes longer to catch up but makes a good family adventure. Rivals and VisionQuest reward continuity, while All’s Fair’s three-episode launch gives newcomers a useful sample. Use Disney+ UK’s episode menu before planning a full binge, especially for shows that are still in weekly release.

There is no single correct watch order for all five. A household could watch a Rivals episode together, let Marvel fans finish VisionQuest, and save Percy Jackson for a family evening. All’s Fair and The Remarried Empress both add episodes weekly, so viewers can follow either without committing every night. The schedule provides options rather than a requirement to finish five shows in seven days.

Release calendar: November 9–15

November 9–10: Catch up on Percy Jackson, The Remarried Empress, All’s Fair or VisionQuest episodes 1–7.
Wednesday, November 11: Rivals Part 2 premieres with three episodes; All’s Fair adds one; The Remarried Empress adds two; VisionQuest reaches its finale.
November 12–15: Continue the new batches or revisit earlier seasons. Rivals’ next episode is scheduled for November 18.

Conclusion

Disney+ UK’s week offers a fantasy catch-up, two ongoing dramas, a Marvel finale and a three-episode return to Rutshire. Rivals is our top pick for its new batch; VisionQuest concludes its eight-episode story; All’s Fair and The Remarried Empress both add chapters on November 11. Percy Jackson is the series to revisit before Season 3 begins on November 20. Whether you want legal drama, romance, Marvel or myth, there is a clear choice for your week.

Check Disney+ UK for the current episode list, audio and subtitles. Several titles are already partway through their seasons, so the most satisfying binge may be a catch-up instead of a brand-new start. Follow the weekly releases if you want to watch along, or wait for a season finale to enjoy a more complete run.
