Thread Title: Major Changes to Disney XD - Rebranding to Jetix on March 18!

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Hey everyone, just spotted some big news here! As of March 18, Disney XD is being rebranded back to Jetix in the UK! I’ve got mixed feelings about this, but it seems quite a few classic shows might be making a comeback. What does everyone think? Who’s excited, and what are you hoping to see on the new/old Jetix?

Post by NostalgiaNut93:
Honestly, this is kind of exciting! I loved Jetix as a kid. So, they’re actually doing it, huh? Bringing Jetix back from the dead! Do you know which shows are definitely coming back, and which ones they’re dropping?

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
There aren’t many specifics out yet, but I’ve heard rumors that some old favorites like Shaman King and Pucca might be returning. Unfortunately, it looks like it’s the end of the line for Gravity Falls and Wander Over Yonder on the new Jetix. Really gutted about GF, it had such a good run😢.

Post by CartoonCove:
Super excited for Shaman King, that was my jam! Sad about Gravity Falls, though. That show is a masterpiece. Has there been any talk about what kind of new shows Jetix might introduce? I hope they keep some of the current creative direction from XD.

Post by RetroRanger:
This is bittersweet news. I grew up with Jetix, so it’s like a revival of my childhood, but the loss of Gravity Falls is a tough pill to swallow. Does anyone know if they’ll carry over any Disney XD originals, or is it going to be a complete overhaul?

**Post by TimeWarpTelly Bullish on Jetix making a comeback, but there’s a big question mark on whether they can recapture the magic or just ride on nostalgia. I wish there was more info on the entire lineup. Does anyone have any sneak peeks or inside info?

Post by JetixJunkie2005:
I checked some forums and Twitter feeds, and there’s speculation about Lab Rats and Kickin’ It staying in some capacity, perhaps in different time slots. But definitely, we can expect a heavy dose of the classics. I just hope they maintain a good balance to attract both new viewers and old fans.

Post by SkepticViewer:
Rebranding back to Jetix is a bold move, possibly trying to leverage that nostalgia factor to boost viewership. I’m all for the return of old favorites, but dropping shows like Gravity Falls? That’s a huge chunk of quality content gone. Any idea if these shows will be available on some other platform or streaming service?

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
@SkepticViewer, no word yet on streaming options for the dropped shows, but it would make sense for them to pop up somewhere else, considering their popularity. Let’s keep our fingers crossed and keep an eye on any announcements.

Post by RenewedRetro:
I’m tentatively optimistic about this change. Really hoping Jet and company know what they’re doing and bring us a mixture of that old school charm with some solid modern shows. Guess we’ll all find out on March 18! Thanks for bringing the news, @TimeWarpTellyFan. Let’s keep this thread updated as more info comes in.

Thread Title: Early Show Addition to Disney XD Before Jetix Transition on Feb 14 - Valentine’s Day Special?

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Hey everyone! Quick update on the Disney XD to Jetix transition - it looks like they’re introducing a show a bit early, on February 14th. Given the day, it’s probably something with Valentine’s themes. No solid info on what show exactly, but it’s an intriguing move! Any guesses or inside info?

Post by CupidArrowFan:
Valentine’s Day special? That’s interesting! It would be neat if they aired something like “Kim Possible,” since it always had those quirky Ron and Kim moments. Each episode hinted at their chemistry, which fits the Valentine’s theme perfectly. Any chance it’s something along those lines?

Post in DisneyXD_Fan93:
Good guess @CupidArrowFan! Kim Possible would be perfect for Valentine’s Day. But don’t you think it might be something newer? Maybe a special episode of a current show that focuses on relationships or friendships?

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Both great thoughts! There’s still no official word from the network about which show it is. But shifting gears a bit - does anyone know if the ads are still ending with “on Disney XD”? I caught a couple of promos, and they definitely still use the “on Disney XD” tagline. Seems like they will keep it until the official switch to Jetix in March.

Post by AdWatcher101:
@TimeWarpTellyFan, noticed that too! All promotions still end with “on Disney XD.” Looks like they’re maintaining brand consistency until the Jetix debut is set in stone. Probably helps avoid viewer confusion during this transition period.

Post by ValentineViewing:
It’s a smart way to handle it, plus it gives us all something extra to look forward to on Valentine’s Day! Maybe this early release is also a way to hype up the transition with something thematic and engaging. Can’t wait to see what it is!

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Agreed, @ValentineView Paul cambio might just be the kick-off they need to boost interest. Remember, everyone, if you spot which show they plan to air, or catch any official news, drop it here! We could be looking at a sweet treat with this one.

Post by GhostOfJetixPast:
Jumping in late here, but it’s exciting to think about Disney XD shaking things up with a Valentine’s special. It adds a layer of fun amidst the uncertainties of the transition. Crossing fingers for a show that will set a positive tone for what’s coming with Jetix!

Thread Title: “Gravity Falls” 3-Part Finale Event March 18 - Jetix Rebrand Right After!

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Big news for all, especially “Gravity Falls” fans! The show is concluding with an epic 3-part finale on March 18. What a bittersweet moment. But hold on to your seats because right after we say goodbye to GF, the channel will officially transition from Disney XD to Jetix! And the first show to air under the revived Jetix brand? It’s “Ōban Star-Racers”! Classic nostalgia hit! Thoughts on the finale and the transition kick-off?

Post by FallsForever:
Just when I thought my heart couldn’t take anymore! “Gravity Falls” ending is going to be hard, but “Ōban Star-Racers” starting off the new Jetix is like a flashback to simpler times. Excited yet sad. Hope the GF finale does justice to the show.

Post by RetroRacerFan:
“Ōban Star-Racers” is an interesting choice to start Jetix with! Great show, and I think it symbolizes their commitment to bringing back some solid old school content. As for “Gravity Falls,” I’m gearing up for an emotional roller coaster. Hoping for an epic send-off!

Post by NostalgiaNut93:
It’s the end of an era with “Gravity Falls,” but what a way to segue into the new era of Jetix. “Ōban Star-Racers” is a great touch. Does anyone know if they’re planning any special programming for the Jetix launch aside from the rebranding?

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
@NostalgiaNut93, as far as I know, they’re planning a marathon of fan-favorite Jetix shows following the rebrand, starting with “Ōban Star-Racers.” It seems like they’re really trying to tap into the nostalgia from when Jetix was at its peak. Should be a good mix of action and adventure!

Post by GeekyGamerGirl:
Mixed feelings here. So excited for Jetix, but saying goodbye to “Gravity Falls” on the same night feels overwhelming. I hope the finale brings closure and maybe even a few surprises! Plus, starting Jeticazioneers back with a race around space? Count me in!

Post by AnimationAficionado:
Does anyone else feel like “Gravity Falls” wrapping up on the same day as the Jetix launch is symbolic? Like passing the torch to a new (or in this case, old) generation of shows? Either way, excited for March 18th - it’ll be a huge day for animation fans!

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Definitely symbolic, @AnimationAficionPaddaradoxes to end and adventures to begin! If anyone plans to watch the event live, let’s organize a watch party or live chat here. It’s going to be a memorable day for all of us, for many reasons!

Thread Title: “Gravity Falls” Moves to Disney+ Exclusively & Full Jetix Lineup Revealed!

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Hey everyone! Quick update following the big finale and the transition to Jetix. As the recent ads have been making clear, “Gravity Falls” has officially moved to Disney+ exclusively. So, for those who want to revisit the Pines’ mysteries, that’s where you’ll find them now. On another note, we finally have the full current lineup for the revamped Jetrim to hear your thoughts!

Post by FallsForever:
Thanks for the update! Good to know “Gravity Falls” will still be accessible on Disney+. It’s a gem that deserves continued viewership. As for the new Jetix, curious to see how this lineup performs. Anything exciting we should look out for?

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Absolutely, here’s the lineup kicking off this new era of Jetix:

1. “Ōban Star-Racers” - As previously mentioned, this action-packed series is making a return and will continue to capture the spirit of adventure and competition.

2. “Shaman King” - Another classic making its way back to our screens, ready to delve into battles of shamanic prowess and spirit allies.

3. “Pucca: Funny Love” - The hilarious misadventures return, providing comedic relief with Pucca’s pursuits of Garu.

4. “Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!” - For those who miss the blending of sci-fi elements with action-packed sequences, this one’s for you.

5. “W.I.T.C.H.” - Magical girls and otherworldly challenges abound in this returning favorite, blending action with a touch of mystique.

6. “Jackie Chan Adventures” - Martial arts, archaeology, and ancient mysticism? Yes, please! Jackie is back in animated form.

7. “American Dragon: Jake Long” - Exploring the life of a young teen who is part dragon and part human, fighting evil and balancing school life.

8. “Digimon Digital Monsters” - For the monster battle enthusiasts, Digimon are back to whisk us away to the Digital World.

9. “Iron Kid (Eon Kid)”- A lesser-known but hugely entertaining series about a boy with a powerful robotic arm set in a futuristic world.

Post by CartoonCove:
Now that’s a lineup! Jetix is really pulling on the nostalgia strings while offering a variety. Can’t wait to see how the newbies take to “Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!” — that show was underrated during its initial run.

Post by GeekyGamerGirl:
Excited for “W.I.T.C.H.” and “Digimon”! Grew up with these and can’t wait to see how they hold up. Also good to see “Gravity Falls” found a home at Disney+. Smart move to keep such a beloved show easily accessible.

Post by RetroRanger:
Glad “Gravity Falls” still streams on Disney+, keeping the weirdness alive! The lineup looks solid. Jetix seems to be blending modern sensibilities with classic nostalgia. Here’s hoping they keep this balance and perhaps introduce some new originals soon.

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Couldn’t agree more, everyone. It looks like Jetix is set to capture both old fans and new viewers with this diverse array of shows. Let’s keep this conversation going and maybe even share some reviews as we check out both the classics and any newcomers to the lineup.

Thread Title: Is “Phineas and Ferb” Still on Jetix, or Has It Moved to Streaming Only?

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
Hello Jetix crew! With all the excitement around the channel revamp and the return of so many classic shows, I’ve been wondering about “Phineas and Ferb.” Is it still part of the Jetix lineup, or has it moved to streaming services only? Anyone got the scoop?

Post by SummerToonLover:
Last I checked, “Phineas and Ferb” wasn’t listed in the new Jetix schedule. It seems like it might have transitioned exclusively to streaming. Can anyone confirm if it’s on Disney+ now?

Post by GeekyGamerGirl:
Yes, “Phineas and Ferb” is definitely on Disney+. I watched a couple of episodes there last weekend. It seems like Disney is consolidating much of its family-friendly content there. No official note on whether it will make a return to broadcast on Jetix, though.

Post by PlatypusAgent:
That’s kind of disappointing. “Phineas and Ferb” has that mass appeal, perfect for Jetix. But I guess Disney+ is trying to be the one-stop-shop for all Disney media. Makes finding all your favorites easier, though all on one platform.

Post by CartoonCove:
I miss the days when you could just flick through TV channels and stumble upon a “Phineas and Ferb” marathon. Streaming’s convenient and all, but there’s something about the surprise element of broadcast TV that I miss.

Post by RetroRanger:
While it makes sense for Disney to push major titles to Disney+, it’s a shame not to see such a classic on the new Jetix schedule. Maybe if enough fans voice their interest, Jetix might consider bringing it back for special events or marathons.

Post by TimeWarpTellyFan:
That’s a solid idea, @RetroRangeBackon broadcast even for just special occasions would be a great nod to longtime fans and a neat way to introduce the show to newer audiences. Maybe something for Jetix to consider for future anniversaries or “Phineas and Ferb”-specific celebrations!

Post by SummerToonLover:
Absolutely! Let’s keep our fingers crossed and maybe even start a little campaign to show there’s still a strong fanbase wanting it on traditional TV. For now, Disney+ will have to do.

Thread Locked by Moderator - [Great discussion, everyone! Let’s continue to support our favorite shows, wherever they air. Remember to keep it friendly and tune into Jetix for more great animation! Happy watching!]

Write a follow up where another Jetix show will return, just not this month, likely to give GF fans some time to mourn before throwing the new show at us, the fact that both have slightly similar themes (2 kids saving the world) is probs a reason they're doing the whole transitional period, A user asks "Can we call this the "funeral" period"
