Disney Plus: Everything Coming To The Streaming Service - Ranked

11. Monsters Inc.

Monsters, Inc. Mike Sully
Buena Vista

Disney have already expanded Monsters Inc into a franchise, with 2013's solid but unspectacular prequel Monsters University, meaning the TV series is either likely to focus on new monsters or, more likely, pick up the story of Mike and Scully after the events of the original movie.

The pair's chemistry alone would make for a fun TV show, and there's a sort of procedural, scare-of-the-week type formula it could use, while serialising elements including the return of Boo. It probably won't touch the quality of the original movie, but if they get John Goodman and Billy Crystal back (which shouldn't be too difficult, really) then it should still be a lot of fun.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
