Where else can I watch Julie and the Phantoms?

Julie and the Phantoms followed Julie (Madison Reyes), a teenage girl who is trying to find her love for music again after her mother's death. She meets three ghosts, Luke (Charlie Gillespie), Reggie (Jeremy Shada), and Alex (Owen Patrick Joyner), who were once a band before their untimely demise in 1995. While Julie can see her ghost friends all the time, the rest of the world can only see them when they all perform together. The show was produced by Kenny Ortega, known for projects like High School Musical and Dirty Dancing, and is based on a Brazilian series Julie e os Fantasmas. Unfortunately, the series was canceled after just one season on Netflix.

Fans all over the world have reacted to the cancelation, with many hoping the series will be revived by another streaming platform. While fans are still fighting to save the series, Ortega has said there are no immediate plans for the series to be picked up. The show was created as part of Ortega's multi-year deal with Netflix, which may impede how quickly it could switch platforms, but fans are confident their efforts will pay off. With so many streaming services out there, let's break down which one is the most likely candidate to pick up the series.

Disney+

Disney+

Disney+ is the next logical step for Julie and the Phantoms. Ortega has worked with Disney previously on the widely successful High School Musical trilogy and more recently with the Descendants trilogy. It makes sense that Disney may help Ortega out and take on the series.

The show would be at home on the platform, fitting in with other musical, family-friendly content like Hannah Montana. It would continue to expand the ghostly offerings Disney introduced recently, like Secrets of Sulphur Springs. Its themes line up with much of the content Disney produces, so it just makes sense for the show to move to Disney+.

Hulu

Netflix

If not Disney+, there is another Disney-owned service that could revive the series. Hulu could also be a great spot for Julie and her band because the show has the potential to fill a void in Hulu's family-friendly content. Much of its children and family content is animated, with some live-action series. Julie and the Phantoms could fill that gap and add a fun twist to its current offerings.

While filling a void, the show wouldn't be out of place. Hulu is home to the science-fiction series Utopia Falls, where teens fight to expose the truth of their post-war world using music. The two could be advertised to similar audiences due to their themes and use of music, and fans of Julie and the Phantoms coming to Hulu could become a new audience for Utopia Falls.

Paramount+

Paramount+

Paramount+ could make a move to obtain the series. Though a newer streaming service, they have a large catalog of Nickelodeon shows, and the series would fit alongside shows like Victorious. Nickelodeon's The Haunted Hathaways, which follows a family whose new home is haunted by the ghost of a Jazz musician, is on Paramount+, meaning Julie and the Phantoms would add to the platform's musician-turned-ghost lineup.

Obtaining Julie and the Phantoms could open several doors for the streaming platform. As a newer service, it has significantly fewer subscribers than Netflix, but fans are flocking to a new platform to see Julie's story continue could boost those numbers. It also provides the opportunity to gain a working relationship with Ortega. He consistently creates popular children's content, and it's a new creative avenue for Paramount to explore.

Apple TV+

Netflix

Apple TV+ is the least likely to revive Julie and the Phantoms, but Apple could put its hat in the ring. Like Hulu, many of its family shows are animated, so Julie and the Phantoms could add to their live-action content. The streaming platform is known for its award-winning series Ted Lasso, and adding Julie and the Phantoms, which won three Daytime Emmy Awards, means Apple could add another well-known winner to its lineup.

Apple TV+ has even fewer paying subscribers than Paramount+, meaning there is the potential for the series to bring in a wave of new subscribers. The show could be advertised to viewers of Ghostwriter, a series on the platform about a bookstore that is home to a ghost with unfinished business. This is similar to a storyline in Julia and the Phantoms where Julie is trying to help her ghost band crossover by figuring out what their unfinished business is.

Disney+ is the most obvious choice to pick up Julie and the Phantoms, but it isn't the only option. Any of these platforms could fit the show into their lineups, create a new working relationship with a tried-and-true director and choreographer, or see a subscriber bump by reviving the series.
