9-1-1: Nashville #1 on Disney+

A 9-1-1 spin-off has bypassed Three to go direct to Disney+ — and is the #1 rated drawcard on the platform.

Yet Disney+ didn’t even publicise last week’s premiere of 9-1-1: Nashville.

Disney+ also carries the first seven seasons of the parent show (S9’s under way on Fox in the US) and all five seasons of 9-1-1: Lone Star (Three has still to complete S4).

Nashville’s Disney+ premiere coincides with more ABC/Fox shows being fast-tracked here, including S37 of The Simpsons , S22 of Grey’s Anatomy, S2 of High Potential and S7 of The Kardashians, which starts on October 23.

When Disney+ launched here, some of its most prized network series became exclusives but didn’t stream on the service until several weeks after their US broadcast.

Inexplicably, this still happens, with no sign yet of Abbott Elementary S5 or Shifting Gears S2 (S1 took months to land here).

9-1-1: Nashville made an “okay” ratings debut, drawing nearly 4.2 million 18-49 year-olds on Fox, when Variety said it delivered “a thrilling country hunk spinoff that’s as absurd as franchise fans will expect”.

Meanwhile, Disney+ will premiere the Ryan (Monster, American Horror Story) Murphy legal drama All’s Fair with three episodes on November 4 (the rest will roll out weekly). Reads the blurb:

A team of female divorce attorneys leave a male-dominated firm to open their own powerhouse practice. Fierce, brilliant, and emotionally complicated, they navigate high-stakes breakups, scandalous secrets, and shifting allegiances—both in the courtroom and within their own ranks. In a world where money talks and love is a battleground, these women don’t just play the game—they change it.

The series stars Kim Kardashian, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor, Matthew Noszka, Sarah Paulson and Glenn Close.

Here’s the trailer.
