will now starting releasing its original series episodes on Wednesdays instead of Fridays, the streamer announced.

The news comes on the heels of the launch of the Marvel Studios series “Loki” on the platform, which has now released two episodes on Disney Plus as of June 16. According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, the decision will apply to all scripted, unscripted, and animated series going forward. Disney Plus original movies will continue to be released on Fridays.

The move will officially take effect for all other Disney Plus shows aside from “Loki” beginning in July. As such, the premiere dates of multiple shows — including “Monsters at Work” and “Turner and Hooch” — have now shifted and can be seen below.

Disney Plus officially launched in November 2019 and has racked up an impressive number of popular shows, though exact viewership remains elusive as streaming services do not release such data. Still, shows like “The Mandalorian” and “WandaVision” have all entered the cultural conversation and helped to drive rapid subscriber growth.
