Several Disney princesses get the LEGO treatment as they go on a castle quest. Three musical shorts help younger children celebrate the heritage of Disney.

LEGO DISNEY PRINCESS: THE CASTLE QUEST

In the all-new special “LEGO Disney Princess: The Castle Quest,” Tiana, Moana, Snow White, Rapunzel, and Ariel are off on an adventure as they are each unexpectedly transported to a mysterious castle. Shortly after arriving, they soon discover that Gaston has hatched an evil plan to take over all their kingdoms! The Princess characters must work together to solve challenges hidden deep within the castle walls and try to save their kingdoms from Gaston. Will bravery, quick-thinking, and teamwork prevail?

DISNEY JUNIOR WONDERFUL WORLD OF SONGS

These musical shorts for preschoolers celebrate the heritage of Disney with classic characters and songs from beloved movies, series and attractions that highlight the wonder and magic of the iconic brand. Performed by popular musical artists Rob Cantor and Genevieve Goings (“Disney Junior Nursery Rhymes”), the shorts feature reimagined versions of classic songs, including “Circle of Life” from “The Lion King,” “You Can Fly!” from “Peter Pan,” “How Far I’ll Go” from “Moana” and “It’s A Small World.”

WHEN FRANK MET CARLITOS

This special brings together Carlos Gardel and Frank Sinatra, played by Oscar Lajad and Pablo Turturiello, for the first time in a single night. According to legend, Gardel was making a presentation on NBC in New York when a young admirer, eager to meet the “great baritone from the River Plate”, who was none other than Frank Sinatra, at 19 years old. The story is made up of parts of true events and shows the two greatest singers in America dealing with common themes, such as love, friendship, the neighborhood and gambling.

MIGUEL WANTS TO FIGHT

Despite living in a neighborhood where fighting is stitched into the fabric of everyday life, high school junior Miguel (Tyler Dean Flores) has never found himself in one. And, to be honest, he’s perfectly fine with that. But when a combination of events turn his life upside down, Miguel and his three best friends —the stoic David (Christian Vunipola), the rowdy Cass (Imani Lewis) and the quick-tonged Srini (Suraj Partha)— enter into a series of hilarious misadventures as he tries to get into his first ever fight.

ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING

Oliver races to bring new life to his show as Mabel’s investigation into the actual murder collides with a surprising ally. Charles bonds with the cast, and Loretta proves her voice is invaluable. The hit series is back for the third episode of season three. It’s available on Hulu in the United States and Disney+ around the globe.

JUSTIFIED: CITY PRIMEVAL

Raylan continues his hunt for Mansell, but that leads to chaos after a kerfuffle. This is episode six of the limited series produced by FX as a continuation of the network’s previous hit drama. It is available on Hulu in the United States and Disney+ in other countries.

THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER

And, if you are looking for legacy content, check out “The Rescuers Down Under.” The second film of the Disney Renaissance is often forgotten as it was produced in between the wildly popular films “The Little Mermaid” and “Beauty and the Beast.” It is the only non-musical of the Renaissance and the first feature film sequel ever produced by the Walt Disney Animation Studios.

Those are my picks. What will you be watching on Disney+ this weekend?
