The last several months have been great on Disney+ if your primary use of the streaming service has been watching Marvel and Star Wars original series, but that's been largely all there is of note for most of this year, despite the fact that Disney has decades of television, and still a lot of movies, that have yet to be released on the platform.
October is likely to be a month that makes basically everybody happy, as it has no shortage of Marvel and Star Wars, with new episodes of She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, and Andor, that launched on Disney+ in September running all month, but it also has some great classic Disney content as well.
October 5 will see the release of both seasons of Zorro, the classic black and white Disney adventure series that ran on ABC from 1957 to 1959. It makes the series some of the oldest TV available on Disney+, and for fans of classic Disney, it's a welcome addition.

The second half of the month of October is also a welcome combination of the old and the new. We'll see a new series of animated Star Wars shorts, Tales of the Jedi, arriving on Disney+. and alongside that will be all four seasons of Bear in the Big Blue House, a children's series produced with The Jim Henson Company that is fondly remembered by those that grew up with it.

We can only hope that October is the beginning of a new trend at Disney+, and that more classic Disney content will be released alongside the brand new stuff. The company is getting ready to celebrate its 100th anniversary next year, so there may be no time better than now for celebrating, and releasing a lot of material from Disney's early years.
