DisneyFanatic92: Hey everyone, just saw the TV schedule for Disney Channel Spain on May 24, 2024. It’s lucky we still have Cambio de Clase on air, even if it’s during the dead land hours at 0:30 AM. Anyone else feels like these classic shows are getting pushed to ungodly hours?

MagicMouse1971: Totally agree, @DisneyFanatic92! I remember rushing home from school to catch episodes of Cambio de Clase. It’s a shame it’s now airing when most of the target audience is asleep. But still, I’m glad they haven’t completely taken it off the air.

EuroDisneyLover: Yes, @DisneyFanatic92 and @MagicMouse1971, those were the days! Cambio de Clase brings back so many good memories. I guess airing during late night is better than not airing at all. Plus, for true fans, there’s always the option to record or stream it later.

AnimatedAnna: I wonder why Disney Channel doesn’t promote these older shows more. They have a timeless appeal and could still attract views during more reasonable hours. I mean, look at how shows like Kim Possible and Gravity Falls are still kept in the better time slots.

NightOwlNick: As someone who actually enjoys late-night TV browsing, I kinda like the placement. Gives me something nostalgic and fun to watch during my downtime. Plus, low viewership hours often lead to fewer interruptions and more back-to-back episodes!

DisneyThrowback: Makes you think about how the scheduling might be out of touch with who actually watches these shows. As the Bell Rings was iconic for many of us growing up. Maybe they should consider a dedicated throwback slot during evenings or weekends?

LiloPelekaiFan: Good point, @DisneyThrowback! A throwback slot would hit differently, especially on weekends when families gather and watch TV together. Imagine a “Retro Disney Hour” — it could attract a bunch of viewers from multiple generations.

ChannelSurfer: Anyone know if there’s a petition or somewhere we can vote to bring some old classics to better time slots? Might be worth showing Disney Channel Spain there’s still a strong fanbase out here.

EuroDisneyLover: That’s a stellar idea, @ChannelSurfer. I’ve seen other channels shift their schedules based on audience feedback. Maybe it’s time for Disney Channel Spain fans to make some noise!

DisneyFanatic92: Appreciate all your thoughts, guys! Maybe we can start a hashtag or something on social media. Let’s try and put our favorite classics back into the spotlight. #RetroDisneySpain anyone?
Write a convo saying they’re doing the same screw over with other older shows such as Chaotic, and even newer ones like Ghostforce and Bubu
DisneyFanatic92: Gotta say, it seems like not only the classics are getting the late-night treatment. Noticed how shows like Chaotic and even newer ones like Ghostforce and Bubu y los búhos bebes are also stuck in those odd hours?

MagicMouse1971: Absolutely, @DisneyFanatic92. It’s not just the old school classics. Chaotic at 3:00 AM and Ghostforce at 2:30 AM? And don’t get me started on Bubu at 4:30 AM—those are almost insultingly obscure times, especially for newer shows that could draw in a fresh audience.

AnimatedAnna: This pattern really makes you wonder about their strategy. Are they trying to phase these shows out, or is it a simple misjudgment of what viewers want to see and when? It’s frustrating as a fan wanting to follow these series.

EuroDisneyLover: It’s bizarre, especially for Ghostforce, which has a pretty solid fanbase and good reviews. You’d think they would give it a more prominent slot to build up its viewership.

NightOwlNick: There’s a part of me that thinks this might be about streaming. Maybe they push the shows to awkward times on live TV because they want fans to switch to Disney+ or other platforms where these shows are available on demand?

LiloPelekaiFan: That’s a valid point, @NightOwlNick. It could be a strategic move to boost their digital platform subscriptions. But it still feels like a disservice to fans who prefer traditional TV or don’t have access to streaming services.

ChannelSurfer: Does anyone else think they’re underestimating the popularity of these shows? Ghostforce and even Chaotic, although older, have cult followings. They deserve better than to be swept under the rug in ungodly hours.

DisneyThrowback: Yeah, @ChannelSurfer, it lacks consideration for different viewer groups. Each of these shows has its unique appeal, and slotting them into these ‘graveyard’ hours feels like they’re not even giving them a chance to shine.

EuroDisneyLover: We should really put together some feedback for Disney Channel Spain. Maybe they’re not aware of the discontent this is causing among their viewer base. If enough of us speak up, they might reconsider these scheduling decisions.

DisneyFanatic92: Agreed! Let’s rally up and provide some constructive feedback. These shows, old or new, shouldn’t be tucked away in the shadows like this. Everyone, ready to get #DisneySpainScheduling trending?
Write a convo asking what Bubu’s english name was again
DisneyFanatic92: Hey everyone, quick question – what was the English name for Bubu y los búhos bebes again? Drawing a total blank here!

MagicMouse1971: Oh, it’s Bubu and the Little Owls. Cute show, it’s a shame not many people know about it due to its odd airing time.

AnimatedAnna: That’s right, Bubu and the Little Owls. My niece loves that one. It’s really adorable, and the educational bits are quite good for the kids.

LiloPelekaiFan: Yes, Bubu and the Little Owls! I actually think it has the potential to be as popular as Peppa Pig if it were given a more viewer-friendly slot.

ChannelSurfer: Agreed, @LiloPelekaiFan. It’s perfect for early morning or daytime hours when younger kids are up. Not sure why they slot it at 4:30 AM.

DisneyFanatic92: Thanks, guys! Bubu and the Little Owls, got it. Really appreciate the quick help. Yeah, it’s definitely a mismatch having it on so late – would be great for morning routines.
Write a convo asking if Chaotic ever airs Season 1 or Season 3 (Secrets of the Lost City) or is it just M’arrilian Invasion
DisneyFanatic92: Does anyone know if Disney Channel Spain airs any other seasons of Chaotic besides Chaotic: Invasión M’arriliana? I’ve been wanting to catch up on Season 1 and Season 3 (Secrets of the Lost City).

MagicMouse1971: Last I checked, they seem to stick mostly to Invasión M’arriliana. Haven’t seen them broadcast Season 1 or Secrets of the Lost City for a while now. It’s a bummer, really.

AnimatedAnna: Yeah, I’ve been following the schedule closely and it’s mostly been Invasión M’arriliana. Seems like they’re not rotating the other seasons in, which is odd because there’s a lot to enjoy in the full series.

EuroDisneyLover: That’s right, it’s mostly been Invasión M’arriliana. I wish they would show Season 1 again – it sets up everything and really draws you into the Chaotic world. Plus, Secrets of the Lost City has such epic storylines!

LiloPelekaiFan: Agreed! Each season has its own charm and storyline depth. Maybe if we reach out and express interest in seeing Seasons 1 and 3, they might consider it. It would make for a rich viewing experience for new and old fans.

ChannelSurfer: That’s a good idea, @LiloPelekaiFan. Perhaps we could start an online request or petition. I’d sign up for sure! Who knows, if enough of us show interest, they might just update the rotation.

DisneyFanatic92: Thanks for the insights, everyone! Looks like it’s all Invasión M’arriliana for now. But I totally agree, starting some kind of viewer feedback initiative might just make a difference. Shall we get something started?
Write a convo asking when Bubu and Season 2 of Chaotic began their current night-shift runs, as Bubu hasn’t been seen during the day since mid 2021
DisneyFanatic92: Hey everyone, just a quick question: does anyone know when Bubu and the Little Owls and Season 2 of Chaotic started their overnight slots? I noticed Bubu hasn’t been in the daytime lineup since mid-2021.

MagicMouse1971: As for Bubu and the Little Owls, you’re right about mid-2022; I remember seeing it in the mornings until around then. For Chaotic, Season 2 went to the night owl slot early last year, if I recall correctly.

AnimatedAnna: Yeah, Bubu used to be such a morning staple! It shifted somewhere around June or July 2021 if memory serves. And Chaotic, Season 2’s night run began somewhere around the spring of 2022 – April or so.

EuroDisneyLover: Spot on with those dates, @AnimatedAnna. It’s a real shift considering both had decent viewership during their earlier air times. Not entirely sure why the switch, but seems a bit of a tactical miss, doesn’t it?

LiloPelekaiFan: Definitely a tactical miss, @EuroDisneyLover. Those were perfect for after-school or breakfast time respectively. I wonder if it’s all part of a larger reshuffling or if it’s just random schedule slotting. Either way, they should consider bringing them back to more accessible times.

ChannelSurfer: Is there any chance of these decisions being influenced by ratings data that we’re not privy to? Perhaps they didn’t perform as well as we thought in those daytime slots despite the anecdotal enjoyment?

DisneyFanatic92: That’s a possibility, @ChannelSurfer. Still, it feels more like these were niche enough to hold their ground at better hours. It’s a shame; more visibility could have actually broadened their audience.

MagicMouse1977: Agreed. It’s all the more frustrating because these shows have dedicated followings that helped sustain them. Maybe it’s about what’s considered ‘prime’ content in the eyes of the schedulers?

DisneyFanatic92: Yeah, it could very well be about pushing what’s seen as ‘prime’ by them. I truly think feedback might help here. Should we gather some community insights and send a collective message to the network? Could stir some consideration.

LiloPalekaiFan: I’m on board with that. It’s about giving feedback as a community. Maybe then they’ll see the value these shows still hold for a lot of us, especially in better timeslots.

DisneyFanatic92: Great, let’s do that then! Thanks for your thoughts, everyone. Let’s try to bring some change!
Write a follow up where the night-hours is just going to be 3 shows on rotation, say which, Also this means a lot more of CdC and B&TLO
DisneyFanatic92: Quick update, everyone! I just heard that the night hours on Disney Channel Spain are going to revolve around just three shows on rotation. Looks like we’ll be seeing a lot more of Cambio de Clase and Bubu and the Little Owls, alongside Chaotic: Invasión M’arriliana (M’arrlian Invasion in English).

MagicMouse1971: Wow, only three shows? That’s quite limiting. Although I’m glad to see more of Cambio de Clase and Bubu, it’s a bit disappointing there won’t be more variety. Feels like a missed opportunity.

AnimatedAnna: I agree with @MagicMouse1971. This seems really restrictive. While I love Bubu and Cambio de Clase, cycling just these three could quickly become repetitive. Plus, what about viewership diversity?

EuroDisneyLover: That’s a concern for sure. It’s hard enough to catch these shows due to their timing, and now knowing it will be the same three on loop? They’re really not making the most of their nighttime slots.

LiloPelekaiFan: Also, isn’t this kind of scheduling a bit risky? I mean, keeping nighttime so restricted could alienate viewers who are looking for something different. There’s a rich catalog they could tap into.

ChannelSurfer: Has anyone considered that perhaps this rotation strategy is a cost-saving measure? Maybe running fewer shows simplifies rights management or reduces overheads in some way during those less viewed hours.

DisneyThrowback: Could be, @ChannelSurfer. However, even if it saves costs, I think it’s short-sighted when considering long-term viewer engagement. People might just switch off if they know it’s the same shows constantly rerun.

DisneyFanatic92: Everyone raises valid points. This decision probably does simplify things for them in terms of scheduling and costs, but it’s at the risk of viewer interest. We should definitely communicate our disappointment—let them realize the potential fallout.

MagicMouse1971: Agreed. Let’s draft a collective feedback letter expressing our concerns about the lack of diversity and the potential for viewer fatigue with such a limited rotating schedule. Maybe it’ll prompt them to reconsider the variety in their programming.

DisneyFanatic92: That sounds like a plan. I’ll start a draft, and maybe we can all add to it over the next few days. We need to make our voices heard effectively. Thanks for the inputs, everyone! Let’s work together on this. Wonder if Disney Italy, UP! Content Co and Chaotic USA Entertainment Group are getting paid for these reruns?. Write a convo saying they should at least add Season 1 and 3 so the rotation doesn’t get too repetitive, but the other 2 shows are doing fine
DisneyFanatic92: With the news about the night-hours schedule focusing on just three shows, it seems vital to suggest adding more variety. Maybe they should at least consider including Season 1 and Season 3 of Chaotic so the rotation doesn’t feel too repetitive.

MagicMouse1971: That’s a solid idea. Seasons 1 and 3 would not only shake things up but would also enrich the viewing experience for fans and newcomers alike. It would keep the show interesting during those less competitive time slots.

AnimatedAnna: Absolutely! Plus, it’s not like Cambio de Clase and Bubu and the Little Owls aren’t doing fine. They have their charm and audience. But for Chaotic, adding the other seasons would be beneficial in maintaining viewer interest.

EuroDisneyLover: Indeed, both Cambio de Clase and Bubu and the Little Owls cater well to their demographics, even at odd hours. Adding more variety to Chaotic would balance the scales somewhat, providing something for everyone throughout the night.

LiloPelekaiFan: Just thinking about how rotating only three shows might wear down their appeal over time. By introducing more seasons of Chaotic, there’s a fresh dynamic added into the mix, which could really help sustain and even grow the late-night viewership.

ChannelSurfer: Great points, everyone. Here’s hoping they consider our feedback about this. It’s about keeping the content engaging and varied, which is crucial, even during off-peak hours.

DisneyThrowback: And let’s not forget about potential new audiences who might stumble upon Chaotic and find it interesting. They’d likely appreciate the variation and broader storyline arcs with additional seasons included.

DisneyFanatic92: Exactly! I’ll ensure to include these points in our draft letter. We need to emphasize that a diverse programming schedule aids in retaining viewer interest and potentially capturing new audiences. Thanks for the feedback, everyone! Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best. Write a follow up asking if SR is still part of the lineup after these changes
