High School Musical: The Musical: The Series (Seasons 1–4)

High School Musical: The Musical: The Series (2019) is a Disney+ musical show you can watch online on iFILM. Students at the real East High stage a production of High School Musical itself, and the backstage drama runs hotter than anything on the boards.

It's shot mockumentary-style, so the teens swing between rehearsing numbers and talking straight to camera about their feelings. Nini comes back with a new boyfriend and old doubts, her ex Ricky wants to win her back, ambitious E.J. is gunning for the lead, and young drama teacher Mr. Mazzara tries to hold the chaos together. Crushes, jealousy, blown cues, and original songs the cast actually wrote.

Olivia Rodrigo took the lead here before she became a pop star, alongside Joshua Bassett, Sofia Wylie and Julia Lester. Tim Federle created the series, and it leans on catchy songs and a wink at the Disney franchise it grew out of. An easy watch for anyone raised on High School Musical who's happy to revisit.
