Bon Jovi is one of the '80s biggest success stories, and this new documentary series takes you behind the curtain of their meteoric rise to fame – as told by the band members in their own words. From their early years and humble beginnings playing the small clubs of New Jersey to becoming mega-stars selling out stadiums and arenas, this four-part series promises to leave no stone unturned in the incredible story of Bon Jovi. 

Directed by Gotham Chopra, Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story offers fans a unique opportunity to hear what really happened in those early years through exclusive interviews. Throughout the 4-part series you'll hear from the band’s current lineup, Jon Bon Jovi, Tico Torres, David Bryan, and Phil X, as well as the group’s former guitarist Richie Sambora and living musical legend Bruce Springsteen. There's also insight from famed music manager Doc McGee and even Jon Bon's wife, Dorothea Bongiovi.

Whether you're in America, the UK, or anywhere else in the world, you can be a part of this musical journey. All four parts of the series are now available to stream via Hulu in North America, as well as Disney+ internationally and Star+ in Latin America.

How to watch Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story in the UK

If you're in the UK, Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story is available to watch exclusively on Disney+. If you're unsure whether to sign up just to watch this doc, the streaming platform offers much more than this limited series, with plenty for music fans to chow down on. 

As you'd expect, Disney+ houses all the most well-known movies from the House Of Mouse, as well as Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, The Simpsons, and so much more. It also includes the Sex Pistols' biopic Pistol, the retelling of the story of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's stolen sex tape in Pam & Tommy and the excellent Beatle's docu-series Get Back. So it's well worth signing up for.

Disney+ subscriptions start from just £4.99 per month for a full HD subscription with ads, jumping up to £7.99 if you'd rather ditch the ads. For a Premium 4K UHD & HDR subscription (without ads, natch) you're looking at 10.99 per month.
