> If there’s a show on Disney Plus or Hulu that you’ve been meaning to watch then you might want to do so quickly before it is pulled from the platforms for good. According to a report by Deadline, Disney is about to remove dozens of series (and a few films) from both streaming services, including Willow, Y: The Last Man, and Turner & Hooch, as part of the entertainment giant’s broader cost-cutting measures.

> A Disney rep has confirmed to us but declined to comment further that both of the Walt Disney Company–owned streamers will be removing a handful of titles from their services as soon as next week on May 26. Titles such as Willow, Dollface, FX’s Pistol and Y: The Last Man are among the first round of shows to be pulled, they confirmed. Disney+’s Howard was initially reported to be pulled, but a Disney rep clarified to us that it was never meant to be taken off the platform. In all, it’s expected that the the final number of titles pulled from Disney+ and Hulu will be a bit under 100, per a source familiar with the plans.

This clarifies some of the names I recognized )like Willow and Turner & Hooch) are recent streaming reboots, not the original movies.
There's a pretty good graphic novel with with a similar name and theme. It was written post 9/11 and definitely draws on that as a source of thematic inspiration. I'd give the TV show a miss though.
