  • This could go well beyond viewership for them.

    Growing up we didn’t have the Disney channel. Back then it was a premium, paid channel. So with the options being renting tapes, seeing theatrical releases, or the special weekends where the channel was free, I watched very Disney growing up.

    Now, as an adult, I have little connection to their characters, movies, shows, etc. I see others my age making yearly treks to Disney World and I don’t have the same draw. I see people buying Disney merch, and again, I don’t have the same need.

    And because I don’t have strong nostalgia feelings for Disney, I didn’t raise my kids on Disney either.

    If kids aren’t connecting with the Disney IP, as they grow up, they could end up like me - an adult that spends little to no money with Disney.

    And that would be a major disaster beyond viewership for them.
