Few years ago, Disney XD was ripped away from viewers across Africa and most parts of the world as further content is allocated on Disney+. MultiChoice was able to retain the remaining linear offering from Disney through 2024 or as stated in press statement "another two years".
Several shows announced for one of their brands particularly The Disney Channel included a new season of Miraculous: Tales Of Ladybug And Catnoir alongside new series Magic Bake Off, Secrets Of Sulphur Springs, Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur and Ghost Force.
As seen already most of the content had already been viewed on Disney Channel everything except for Marvel Studios' female tailored action series, Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur.
Based on the characters of Marvel Comics, it follows 13-year-old supergenius Lunella as she accidentally brings 10-ton Tyrannosaurus rex Devil Dinosaur into present-day New York City via a time vortex, they work together to protect the city's Lower East Side from danger.
The series was slated to air by 2022 on Disney Channel but was pushed to the following year. Ahead of its debut, production had already begun on a potential second season with the show recieving acclaim for its writing, animation and soundtrack following its rollout.
With questions lingering regarding its fate of the show across Africa, Disney was asked whether the series was part of Disney Channel's launch calendar as seen in Scandinavia but similar to Chip 'n Dale: Park Life, the latter had been folded under on Disney+.
Meaning similar to the final seasons of Big Hero 6 and Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure. Disney kept yet another show away from linear platforms as there are currently no plans to rollout any of this content on the Disney Channel.
Interesting to note, Marvel's Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur accessible to the Disney Channel in Scandinavia with Chip 'n Dale: Park Life in Africa known internationally as EMEA. Following the merger of these feeds, the latter was silently removed from the lineup.
Could this be the end of the Disney Channel???
Similar to FOX, Disney Channel has also been bombarded with reruns (e.g. Lab Rats and Walk The Prank from Disney XD) and promoted various content currently streaming on Disney+ (e.g. Diary Of A Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules and Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire).
