Just in time for The Bear season 4, Disney Plus is discounted to AU$4.99p/m for 4 months
Streaming service discounts are as rare as they come. Obviously, there are exceptions to this — some platforms offer annual subscriptions — but for the majority of the best streaming services in Australia, saving on your monthly costs is hard. It's my bread and butter to find good deals, and right now, Disney Plus has a limited-time discount that shaves a nice chunk of change off a four-month subscription. From today (May 29) to June 11, Disney Plus has an exclusive deal on its Standard subscription. All new and eligible returning customers* can sign up for a four-month subscription for just AU$4.99p/m — that's AU$19.96 total. When compared to the RRP, you'll save AU$44 with this subscription. After four months, the plan will automatically renew at the normal price. You'll need to act fast if you want to snag this bargain — this offer is only redeemable until June 11, 2025. Disney Plus Standard subscription | AU$15.99p/m AU$4.99p/m (for 4 months, then AU$15.99p/m) Retailing AU$15.99p/m for a Standard subscription, this Disney Plus deal will net you a massive AU$44 in savings over the four-month promotional period. For a modest AU$4.99p/m, you can access Disney Plus' impressive content catalogue, including recent Marvel hits like "Captain America: Brave New World" and the upcoming season of "The Bear". There are no ads on Disney Plus, so this AU$11p/m discount is a major win in our books. This attractive deal comes at a great time for the streamer, as June has a wealth of new blockbusters set to debut. There's something worth watching for everyone, including the sports fanatic in your life, with the NBA Finals on June 6, the NHL Stanley Cup Finals on June 8 and two UFC Fight Nights mid-month. A big standout is the award-winning FX series, "The Bear", with the upcoming fourth season available to stream on June 26. We're in for another ride around the kitchen, as Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) and crew attempt to take The Bear to the next level. Another smash-hit coming to Disney Plus next month is Marvel's 'Ironheart', with new episodes dropping weekly from June 25. This brand-new series takes place after the events of "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" and follows young inventor Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne) as she returns to Chicago and gets caught up in cahoots with the mysterious, yet charming, Parker Robbins — a.k.a. The Hood — in pursuit of her ambitions. Other new additions coming to the platform include the entire "Mission Impossible" film franchise, a special recording of "Frozen: The Musical", a new reality documentary, "Call Her Alex" and animated film "Predator: Killer of Killers". If you've gotten this far, you may be wondering what's actually included in a Disney Plus standard subscription. Well, here's a short breakdown for you: What you do miss out on compared to Disney Plus' Premium subscription is 4K streaming and four simultaneous screens, both of which are exclusive features of the higher tier. If you find that the streamer isn't suited to you and your household, you can always cancel your Disney Plus subscription at any time.

Star struck: Are we becoming too hooked on online reviews?
After bingeing the last two episodes of The Pitt and The Last of Us finale on Monday night, I decided to give my adrenal system one final shake by watching the trailer for the new season of The Bear. Somehow I'd managed to forget the season three cliffhanger. The episode ends with Carmy receiving a Google notification. The review of his new restaurant is in, and based on the snippets of text showing words like 'brilliant', 'sloppy', 'excellent', 'confusing' and 'disappointing', it's not all good. How much attention do you pay to reviews? I read reviews. Not religiously, but certainly when I'm visiting a different city or trying a new venue. I want a sense of where I should go or stay, and an even greater sense of where I should avoid. Loading When I recently found myself (rather insanely) questioning a 4.8-star review, I realised this compulsion to be guided by the opinion of others had gotten out of hand. The amount of choice and information we have access to is a luxury, one that many frenetic review readers probably take for granted. Spare a thought for the business owner who's just been savaged by a one-star review and watched their Google rating drop because a dish didn't agree with one guy's palate. Sarah Baldwin, the chef-owner of Fortitude Valley fine-dining restaurant Joy, understands the delicate nature of modern review culture – and the pitfalls of public feedback. In the six years since opening her 10-seat restaurant in Bakery Lane, she says negative reviews have been infrequent. But even one can sting.

TV fans nervous as 'best show on air' shares new season trailer
One of the best shows currently on the air is gearing up for its fourth – and potentially final – season this summer. The Bear has shared a trailer for its fourth instalment ahead of the show's return to Disney Plus this June and it sees the restaurant battling for survival. The Bear (restaurant, not TV show) is still struggling to find its feet off the back of season three, with financial backer and maybe gangster Uncle Jimmy (Oliver Platt) warning that the money is drying up and, when it does, they'll have to shut up shop. The kitchen is still a slapdash mess of chopping, dropping, basting and pouring, with a review that says the chef has a problem with consistency – maybe because Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) insists on a menu that changes with each new day of the week. The sharp and ever stressful trailer also shows Jamie Lee Curtis will be back again, playing the unhinged matriarch of the Berzatto family. Elsewhere, there's what looks like a wedding in the mix – although no sign of Claire, played by Molly Gordon, in this first look, so she may be permanently out of Carmy's life (although not Jeremy Allen White's, of course). The trailer does not, alas, answer the big questions like, will Carmy ever be happy? Or will Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) find some work/life balance? And does this restaurant even make those awesome-looking sandwiches anymore? To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video When the show returns, it will be with all 10 episodes dropping at once on Disney Plus and Hulu in the US, serving TV fans a ten-course tasting feast. Seasons three and four were renewed at the same time, but we don't yet know whether this could be our last outing with the Original Beef gang. Despite prior rumours this could be the final season, it so far hasn't been billed as such – even though virtually every actor in the kitchen is in high demand in Hollywood, begging the question of how filming might be coordinated. Following a sedate season that received mixed reactions compared to the virtuoso outings before, there's a fair amount of pressure on these upcoming episodes to meet the hype. And some fans are worried it might fall short. Taking to X (formerly Twitter) to weigh in on the new trailer, @TruHeelSP3 pleaded: 'Please be better than season 3!' @Geralt31065966 echoed: 'I really hope the story progresses in season 4 of The Bear. The season 3 wasn't bad, but the story didn't progress. It was visually beautiful though. We need more chaos!' More Trending @leedoohyuns added: 'The way The Bear season 4 has the potential to be one of the best pieces of media to be ever created, I really hope they don't fumble this.' Elsewhere among fans, the first look at what's to come was met with feverish anticipation. @mightyfosterr wrote: 'One of my tv shows is coming back next month, I can't wait to watch season 4 of The Bear. YES CHEF!!' @singhkavish added: 'The Bear is one of the best of all times. Kudos to the entire team for extraordinary work.'
