Cocomelon Acquired by Disney+: Netflix Deal Ends due to 60% Decrease in Viewership
If you’re a fan of the popular children’s nursery rhyme program “Cocomelon,” get ready for some big changes in the streaming world. After being on Netflix since 2020, “Cocomelon” is making a move to Disney+ in 2027.
Netflix decided not to renew its license for “Cocomelon” after seeing a significant decline in viewership, with nearly a 60% decrease from the first half of 2023 to the second half of 2024. Even though “Cocomelon” was once a top performer, it didn’t make the cut for Nielsen’s top 10 acquired programs in 2024 like it did in 2023 when it ranked at No. 5.
Despite the drop in numbers, “Cocomelon” remains one of Netflix’s most-watched programs. It will be interesting to see how fans react to the move to Disney+ and how the show fares in its new home. Keep an eye out for more updates on this exciting development in the streaming world!
