From National Geographic, fans will have access to both seasons of THE WORLD ACCORDING TO JEFF GOLDBLUM which sees Jeff take us on an entertaining, insightful, and playful ride. In each episode of this 12-part series, he pulls on the thread of a deceptively familiar object to unravel a world of astonishing connections and fascinating science and history.
Disney+ looks to offer access to high-quality viewing for up to four concurrent streams, unlimited downloads on up to ten devices, and the ability to set up to seven different profiles, including the ability for parents to set Kids Profiles that have an easy-to-navigate, child-friendly interface to access age-appropriate content.
