Disney Jr. (American TV channel)

**Disney Jr.** (formerly known as **Disney Junior** and **Playhouse Disney**) is an American pay television network owned by the Disney Branded Television sub-division of the Disney Entertainment business segment of the Walt Disney Company. Aimed mainly at children two to seven years of age, its programming consists of original first-run television series, films, and select other third-party programming.

As of November 2023, Disney Jr. is available to approximately 45,000,000 pay television households in the United States, down from its 2015 peak of 74,000,000 households. In recent years, Disney Jr.'s carriage has declined with the growth of streaming alternatives including its parent company's Disney+, and has generally been depreciated by Disney in current retransmission consent negotiations with cable and streaming providers. Notably, the channel has recently been removed in negotiations with Charter Spectrum in 2023 and with Verizon Fios in 2025.

## Blocks
### Disney Junior Night Light
*Disney Junior Night Light* is the former name of Disney Junior channel's overnight programming block, running daily from 9:00&nbsp;p.m. to 4:00&nbsp;a.m. Eastern and Pacific Time. The block, which debuted on September 4, 2012, and is sponsored by Babble (under a similar underwriter sponsorship agreement as that regularly used by Disney Channel and Disney Junior, which both operate as commercial-free services), consists of short-form programs intended for co-viewing among parents and their children. Features seen as part of the block include *Picture This* (which presents sketches of Disney characters being drawn), *Sesh Tales* (a segment featuring costumed finger puppets with twists on traditional fairy tales) and ''That's Fresh'' (a segment featuring cooking tips aimed at parents, presented by celebrity chef Helen Cavallo). Additional series under development at the block's launch included a photography series, a series that follows parents through the day their new baby comes home after being born, and a show about stay-at-home dads. Since 2017, Disney Junior's overnight programming has run unbranded and without the *Night Light* continuity. As of November 1, 2021, Disney Junior Night Light is still used for interstitials and sign-off due to the handover of Disney Mom. (which was used in November 2021)
