Disney Channel schedule change for 4/7 (KP and AD:JL)

[zoombie]

I just saw a commerical on Disney Channel for the next new episode of Kim Possible Big Bother it airs at 5: 30 pm et.

I also heard that a new episode of American Dragon: Jake Long Siren Says airs at 5 pm et.

To recap 4/7 schedule change, new episodes of Kim Possible and American Dragon: Jake Long.

5 pm et - American Dragon: Jake Long (Siren Says)
5: 30 pm et - Kim Possible (Big Bother)

I saw a commercial for this, too. I wonder why the schedule changed. Anyone know? any special "event" planned for the normal time slot?

[zoombie]

My guess is they are going to air an encore presention of the second "Special Edition" of Jump In.

[Burgundy Ranger]

Well. Thanks for that alert. Checked the new schedule and it's a four-ep Raven-thon from 6pm-8pm, Cory at 8:00 and Suite Life at 8:30.

This is another symptom of the lack of a Disney press contact (as described in my 'May premieres' post) that made sure every last bit of info was sent out.

**BIG NOTE: Upon further review, this is a PERMANENT CHANGE in the Saturday schedule. All JL and KP premieres for the month of April will be at 5:00 and 5:30.

Are you sure about this? I checked the DC website and it still says KP and AD:JL are airing at 8:00 and 8:30 tomorrow night. This is just plain stupid if it is for real. By the way, Burgundy, thanks for the head's up on TV.com.

Are you sure about this? I checked the DC website and it still says KP and AD:JL are airing at 8:00 and 8:30 tomorrow night.Disney has nothing to do with the schedule on the DC website. They get that from Tribune Media Services -- a service that provides TV info to thousands of newspapers and web sites in the U.S.

And, since they don't have a person currently sending out new schedules and schedule-change advisories, Tribune doesn't get this info and therefore it doesn't show up in grids like the one on DC.com.

Alright, makes complete sense. I guess we will just have to get used to this change. Thanks Burgundy!

[Burgundy Ranger]

Alright, makes complete sense. I guess we will just have to get used to this change. Thanks Burgundy!No problem.

And, the topper in all this is that they're running promos on-air with these new times.

[Bryan]

Are there any other schedule changes (weekend and weekdays) that we don't know about? Thanks in advance!

Are there any other schedule changes (weekend and weekdays) that we don't know about? Thanks in advance!Since I don't watch a lick of Disney Channel, I wouldn't know just by looking at the schedule. So, here's what I'll do. I'll post the full weekend schedule (that begins today) and the weekday schedule that's posted for Monday.

Then you can tell me if there's anything different.

Doesn't look to be any other changes from what I know. Thank you so much for doing that, though.

I do wonder why AD:JL and KP moved to 5pm? Was the ratings bad? Or maybe it's just because they were planning on airing a lot of specials at 8pm Saturdays, and it would keep replacing AD & KP. Either way, I'll still watch both shows tonight! :)

Hey Burgundy, I just saw the new promo for next week's episode (Fashion Victim) and it says it is at 8pm. What do you make of that? Here is a picture of what I mean:

Hey Burgundy, I just saw the new promo for next week's episode (Fashion Victim) and it says it is at 8pm. What do you make of that?I'd be much more certain if Disney's press department were at full staff and haven't gone the past month without ANY mailings about upcoming schedules.

But the Disney channels DO have a strong history of showing outdated promos. My best example is on Toon Disney, where they still show a promo that says .... "Coming to Jetix, a story 10,000 years in the making ...."

That's the promo for Oban Star-Racers, a series that not only has already come to Jetix, it's already over.

[Burgundy Ranger]

What happened to TaleSpin, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, and Goof Troop?

No sooner Toon Disney gets them and they turn around and drop them. It figures.This is a Disney Channel schedule.

Over on Toon Disney, Chip n' Dale (12 noon) and TaleSpin (12:30) are still on the schedule. Goof Troop got dropped for Recess.

So is this schedule still currently the norm? Is my assumption correct, that new AD:JL and Kim Possible episodes will air this Saturday (4/28) at these times?

Forgive the sarcasm, but I would like to remind fans of new episodes without the date/time being completely smurfed up.

Yes, this is currently the confirmed, normal schedule for JL and KP.
