Disney's luck was bound to run out soon, I mean how lucky were they to produce three generations of massive teen stars consecutively, soon after Brit/Xtina/JT they found Shia/Raven/Lizzie and then soon after they got Miley/Selena/Demi/JB, this most recent era they got Zendaya but everything else has been messy

The second generation of Disney didn't really blow up like the 1st and 3rd generation

I'm kinda sad to see "Jessie" go, but it was only still on because of Skai! Right now, the only tolerable show on there is "I Didn't Do It"… and the Disney XD shows!

NOOOOO! Austin and Ally and Jessie SLAYED

Jessie Prescott is a legend

Hmm the numbers between KC and Liv are so close that there really isn't that big a difference in viewership to act like one is doing so much better than the other.

I Didn't Do It is a flop. No one claimed otherwise.

KC Undercover is doing fine, but you're acting like the show is doing big enough numbers to off-set the other shows when that's just not the case. It's a disillusioned version of the actual facts on a show that is just doing alright.

You are truly a hater lmao. You think I don't remember you coming for Zendaya daily in the Replay thread? You need to exit with these lies. I hate when stan logic comes in to delude reality.

Reality is KC is the #1 show out of ALL the shows thus far (and was actually #1 on all of cable its first two episodes). Every week it aired, it did better than the rest of the Disney lineup. That was not the case for Liv & Maddie on its first couple of episodes (post premiere) nor GMW past the first couple of episodes that weren't using nostalgia to cash in views (hence the huge drop in ratings, more than 70% from the premiere). Good Luck and Jessie were doing better at that point.

Additionally, Jessie is getting spinoff despite having subpar ratings almost its entire run on TV, so your point is moot. Stop being a blind hater smh.

Yikes! The actual lack of facts (Jessie was doing fine in season 1 and season 2 and only really started a significant decline in season 3) and bringing up irrelevant points to the discussion (NO ONE is asking about how Jessie, GLC or even GMW is doing). We are talking about KC Undercover and that's all, sis.

Again, KC Undercover is doing just fine for Disney Channel, but it's not a major player and in the end will finish just like the other current crop of Disney shows, irrelevant in a couple of years. Take off the stan glasses and educate yourself on this fact.

Also, I am no hater. I find Zendaya charming on the show and recently admitted in the KC Undercover show thread (I believe) that I enjoy the show. I've seen each episode since its premiere, albeit not on it's premiere date. So get off your high (or rather low in this case) horse. This isn't a case of hating on someone or something, it's truly about being realistic.

For the record, I much prefer Olivia Holt to Zendaya, and Dove is just eh imo, but none of them truly have the fanbase that any of the former top Disney girls did.

Are the Disney shows really that bad? I watched I Didn't Do It and Liv & Maddie the other day and they're cute harmless shows. The only thing that ever annoyed me was the overuse of the laugh track.

I do think people who are like 'Bring back the good ole days!' are blinded by their nostalgia, tho.

Haven't watched that channel on a daily basis since WOWP ended. The fact that the series finale for WOWP got nearly 10 million viewers to me signals that a generation of Disney Channel viewers were saying goodbye to the network and watching a good show one last time.

However, Disney remains better than Nick which completely went down the drain after iCarly and Victorious ended. All their shows are trash now and just have no flare to them.
