The Lion Guard

The Lion Guard was an American animated television series developed by Ford Riley. It was created to celebrate The Lion King's 20th anniversary. It takes place after the prologue of its 1998 sequel, *The Lion King II: Simba's Pride*, but before the rest of the film. It focuses on Kiara's previously unheard of younger brother, Kion. As the second cub of the royal family, Kion inherits a power his great uncle Scar once had, the Roar of the Elders. It's his job to create a group called the Lion Guard to protect the Pridelands and the Circle of Life. The pilot, Return of the Roar, aired on November 22nd, 2015, and after 74 episodes over the course of almost four years, the series came to an end on September 2nd, 2019, on DisneyNOW, and on November 3rd, 2019, on television. And yes, I personally consider its third season a better 25th anniversary celebration of the original film than the realistic CGI remake that also came out in the summer of 2019, but that's just my opinion. Return of the Roar
