8 Family-Themed Films and Shows to Keep You Company This Long Weekend

Aug 23, 2024   •   Meryl Medel

Like a mini-reset button, the long weekend is a chance to hit pause, sit back, and soak up some quality time by yourself or with family and friends. And what better way to do that than by binge-watching some heartwarming family flicks and series? Whether you’re cozied up with your family, chilling with your barkada, or just enjoying some solo time, these titles on Disney+ will give you all the feels to make it such a fine long weekend you’ll only wish to extend.

 

FILM: Mrs. Doubtfire (1993)

Robin Williams in drag is the world’s most lovable nanny you’d love to have. This ‘90s classic is a touching movie that mixes comedy gold with heartfelt moments about family and love, reminding you that sometimes, you just have to get creative to keep the fam together.

 

FILM: Little Miss Sunshine (2006)

One unique and unforgettable road trip, anyone? This indie gem is a rollercoaster of emotions, following a quirky family’s hilarious, heartwarming, and sometimes heartbreaking efforts all geared towards helping a young girl’s dream to join a beauty pageant come true. This is perfect for when you need a good laugh and a little affirmation that being different is actually pretty cool.

 

FILM: The Descendants (2011)

How about a movie that has Hawaii as its breathtaking backdrop? Yes, please! Beautiful not only for its setting, but also for its heart-tugging message of how in unexpected ways, life can bring you closer to the ones you love. The film stars George Clooney as a father grappling with a family tragedy and trying to reconnect with his daughters, making it a poignant watch for when you’re in the mood for something both moving and introspective.

 

FILM: The Parent Trap (1998)

Double the trouble, double the fun! This is a must-watch for anyone who loves a good twin-swap story. Lindsay Lohan shines in this family-friendly flick about long-lost sisters who scheme to get their parents back together. It’s an excellent mix of mischief, nostalgia, and pure fun.

 

SERIES: Fresh off the Boat (2015)

For a taste of culture clash comedy, this critically acclaimed sitcom delivers big time. Loosely inspired by the life of chef and food personality Eddie Huang, the series is all about growing up as an Asian-American in ‘90s Florida. It’s relatable, it’s funny, and it’s packed with feel-good family values and no-nonsense, pragmatic teachable moments with matriarch Jessica that will have you hooked.

 

SERIES: Empire (2015)

Want some major family drama? Lucious, Cookie, and the Lyons are here to bring you exactly that. These characters serve it hot with a side of killer music. The show dives deep into the ups and downs of a hip-hop dynasty, with enough twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat. If juicy family feud or a soundtrack that slaps is your thing, then this one’s for you.

 

SERIES: Arrested Development (2003)

Meet the Bluths—a dysfunctional family like no other. Considered by critics as one of the all-time greats, this satire is pure comedy genius, with its quick wit, zany characters, and plot twists that’ll leave you laughing out loud. It’s a binge-worthy classic for when you just need to unwind and enjoy some clever albeit absurd humor.

 

SERIES: Black-ish (2014)

Be aware about important matters in life and laugh while doing it. This series is more than just a sitcom—it’s a clever, funny take on modern family life that tackles social issues with a whole lot of heart. The Johnson family is #goals—everyone is unapologetically themselves and always open for honest conversations to foster understanding and growth in their household.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your snacks, get your blanket and pillow, and find your spot on the couch or on the bed. All these and more are available on Disney+.
