About Beauty and the Beast
Beauty and the Beast from 1991 ends with the spell broken and the ballroom dance. Enchanted Christmas from 1997 flashes back to a first imprisoned Christmas with Forte's organ plot, framed a year after the film.
Belle's Magical World from 1998 sits inside the Something There courtship as an anthology, and Sing Me a Story ran as a TV offshoot. The 2017 live-action remake retells the 1991 story past a billion dollars, and the 2022 TV special celebrates it. The Gaston prequel series was shelved. Watch 1991 first, then in order.
Good to know
The two DTV entries are midquels set during the 1991 film rather than sequels, so release order still works after the original. The 2017 remake stands alone for a separate viewing. The Little Town prequel series was ordered then shelved with no date. Start with the 1991 classic, since every midquel assumes its imprisonment beats.
