Potential ABC Kids Schedules

[chamas]

I'm making big changes to my schedules because I've noticed some big problems with the potential schedules I've made before.

Here is the previous ABC Kids schedule (2006-2007):

9:00 am / 8:00 am: The Emperor's New School
9:30 am / 8:30 am: The Replacements
10:00 am / 9:00 am: That's So Raven
10:30 am / 9:30 am: That's So Raven
11:00 am / 10:00 am: Hannah Montana
11:30 am / 10:30 am: The Suite Life of Zack and Cody
12:00 pm / 11:00 am: Power Rangers: Mystic Force
12:30 pm / 11:30 am: Power Rangers: Mystic Force

The block came to an end in 2011, with this schedule (excluding Power Rangers), and I think I know what froze the schedule. In 2007, Cory in the House was supposed to be on the block to replace one of the two Raven timeslots. But they chose to stick with the status quo until 2011, most likely because if they included Cory with Raven still in the lineup, the would be a problem. Or, it could be that Cory bombed on Disney Channel. Who knows? Anyway, I think I found a solution that would have made sure ABC Kids would have changed the schedule every year until it's cancellation in 2011. Here it goes...

2008-2009 Lineup:

9:00 am / 8:00 am: The Emperor's New School
9:30 am / 8:30 am: The Replacements
10:00 am / 9:00 am: That's So Raven / Wizards of Waverly Place
10:30 am / 9:30 am: Wizards of Waverly Place / Hannah Montana
11:00 am / 10:00 am: Hannah Montana / The Suite Life of Zack and Cody
11:30 am / 10:30 am: The Suite Life of Zack and Cody / Phineas and Ferb
12:00 pm / 11:00 am: Power Rangers: Jungle Fury / RPM
12:30 pm / 11:30 am: Power Rangers: Jungle Fury / RPM

Note: In January 2009, Phineas and Ferb will debut, replacing That's So Raven once and for all. On March 7, 2009, Power Rangers: RPM will debut.

2009-2010 Lineup:

9:00 am / 8:00 am: The Replacements
9:30 am / 8:30 am: Sonny With A Chance
10:00 am / 9:00 am: Wizards of Waverly Place
10:30 am / 9:30 am: Hannah Montana
11:00 am / 10:00 am: The Suite Life on Deck
11:30 am / 10:30 am: Phineas and Ferb
12:00 pm / 11:00 am: Power Rangers: RPM
12:30 pm / 11:30 am: Power Rangers: RPM

Note: A 2010 remastered version of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers will debut January 2, 2010 to replace Power Rangers: RPM.

2010-2011 Lineup:

9:00 am / 8:00 am: Phineas and Ferb
9:30 am / 8:30 am: Fish Hooks
10:00 am / 9:00 am: Wizards of Waverly Place
10:30 am / 9:30 am: Hannah Montana Forever
11:00 am / 10:00 am: Sonny With A Chance
11:30 am / 10:30 am: The Suite Life on Deck

Note: The hour held by Power Rangers is returned to ABC's affiliates.

Even if ABC Kids continued to refresh it's lineup, I highly doubt it would still be on now. Many broadcast networks don't participate in the SatAM game nowadays, and Disney would rather focus on it's 24/7 cable channels than a few hours on ABC every saturday morning. So yeah, it's not the same anymore. The block was fun while it lasted, and I will never forget that block. It was the highlight of my Saturday mornings.

If ABC Kids was still on today, here's how their schedule would look as of April 2015 (shows in bold are new to the block) (shows in italics are returning to the block):

8 AM: Phineas and Ferb
8:30 AM: Gravity Falls
9 AM: Recess
9:30 AM: Star Wars Rebels
10 AM: Kim Possible
10:30 AM: Wander Over Yonder
11 AM: Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja
11:30 AM: Star vs. The Forces of Evil
12 Noon: Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero
12:30 PM: Ultimate Spider-Man

I'll also be adding a weekday block, running from 2-4 PM on Mondays-Fridays, starting in September.

Weekday Block (2-4 PM) (leading right into 4:00 news on most affiliates):

2 PM: Wander Over Yonder
2:30 PM: Gravity Falls
3 PM: Phineas and Ferb
3:30 PM: Star vs. The Forces of Evil


The following changes take effect in September 2014:

The block is extended from 8 AM-1 PM. Recess would replace 'Emperor's New School', Kim Possible and Wander Over Yonder replace the hour of 'That's So Raven', Hannah Montana is replaced with '9th Grade Ninja', 'Suite Life' got replaced with 'Mighty Med' in February 2014 and the 12 Noon hour is filled by 'Fish Hooks' and 'Ultimate Spider-Man'.

February 2015 changes:

'Fish Hooks' is replaced with 'Penn Zero: Part Time Hero' and 'The Replacements' was replaced by 'Star Wars Rebels' on February 14th.


April 2015 changes:

'Mighty Med' is replaced with 'Star vs. The Forces of Evil' on April 4th.

Great schedule dude. But I think the block would last from 9 AM-1 PM on Saturdays because of ABC's news coverage from 8-9 AM. The affiliates find it more profitable for them. Anyways, creating schedules is tons of fun.
