Disney Channel

The founder of "Disney"!

The creator of "The Owl House"!

Disclaimer: I am not discussing WHY this happened, and I am also not defending Disney for it. I am just giving my thoughts. AND I'm saying that it helped a little. If you disagree, please don't harass me in the comments. So like, chill bro.

Since people are still mad over this, I’m gonna take the Mic over and give my opinion.

I think this shortening…actually benefited the show a bit.

Now before you rear your pitchforks and knives, I will admit that the Owl House not getting a third season is really stpuid. It's a great show that deserves all the love it gets and the fact that they just angered the fans is just wrong Disney. Really.

But I am gonna say that…this actually benefited it a little.

Now as we begin, I will direct you to Amphibia Season 3. Just to recap (Spoilers! says River Song), Sasha and Grime have betrayed the heroes and tried to get the toad army to destroy Newtopia, only for Anne and the planters to stop them. However, when she gives the box to andrias and long story short she becomes super saiyan, she gets backstabbed by Marcy and Marcy gets literal backstabbed by andrias and the Planters and Anne get marooned on earth.

This changes everything. After so much filler and pointless kiddy stuff, Amphibia finally get some major story beats They can't WAIT to see what Season 3 is like-

It’s just the Planters and Anne screwing around on Earth. Okay that's lame.

Sure we get still get the story progressed, but the tone for Season 3 is JUST like the first season, and considering the cliffhanger “True Colours” left us on, that is NOT a good sign, and just another indication of how Amphibia is the weakest of the Trio containing it, Gravity Falls and the Owl House. And the problem I think “Thanks to Them” exacerbates in the opening montage before the Logo.

The biggest reason a lot of people hate about the shortening is that we never got full filler episodes of the Hexsquad just hanging out in the human realm or at least full episodes of the brief scenes we saw in the montage, but personally, I’m okay with it. I mean, how can I enjoy the main characters hanging out and wasting precious time as their friends and family are suffering at the hands of the Collector? If they did, they would have been completely ignorant. And given how The Owl House has 22 minute episodes and not 10 minutes the problem may have been every worse.

And now for my second point, what do we really lose from the time being shortened? Caleb and Evalyn’s story? More info on the Archivists? That would be great! But I feel like most people by now know the full story. Caleb met Evalyn who was a clawthorne, they went to the isles to start a life, Belos followed, found out about the love and killed his brother. It's pretty self explanatory for longtime fans. Although more info on the Archivists would have been amazing, I wanna know what happened as well. Then again, that could just be left up to our interpretation, see here for more information!

But to finish I will admit that the Owl House SHOULD have gotten a full Season 3. If LEGO NInjago: Masters of Spinjitzu could get 15 Seasons (and 2 Specials) and Doctor Who could get over 40 seasons over 60 years (except the 90 and early 2000s), the Owl House SHOULD have gotten a full Season 3, and maybe Disney couldn’t have been hated more as it is now. And we could have at least to have solid proof that Huntlow is canon (Huntlow is cool, but I prefer Miss Heed personally).

But as I take off (literally i’m getting into a plane) I say this: Sometimes shortening things CAN work. And if something unexpected like this happens, you can do your best to make of a bad situation.

But the worst part is that we never got the Morditwi Wedding scene PRIMUS DAMN IT

"Us weirdos have to stick together."

4 years ago, "The Owl House" aired on Disney.

This is show is definitely the GOAT shows in Disney aside from GF, Amphibia and TGAMM. I love the adventures of Luz Noceda went to the demon realm to become a witch and learn magic.

Eda Clawthrone seems to be a great mentor and mother figure to Luz. I feel bad for her going through hell because of the curse Lilith put on her.

And no one can forget this little baby. A strong and mighty little titan. Just like his dad.

I also love Amity's story in this. Wanting to be her own witch rather than joining the Emperor's coven Odalia force her to.

I gonna be honest, Belos/Philip Wittebane has to be the most pure villian in Disney history. I love his story of how he depises witches and wanting to destroy Boiling Isles.

The Collector seems to be an alone, abandoned and misunderstood being. So glad the trio knock some sense into him.

AND LONG LIVE LUMITY!!!!

I still don't forgive Disney for cancelling an awesome series, but at least they put a lot of effort into it.

Thank you Dana Terrance for making such a HOOT-iful show!

This mf looking to choke slam me:

In this alternate timeline, The Owl House wasn't delayed to 2020 and had aired in June 2019 alongside Amphibia, since the Disney executives who shortened the show weren't the same ones who greenlit it back in 2015. Also, the point of divergence (POD) is that all of the deleted scenes from each of the episodes were used and a fan-made episode "Nightmare Before Woe" was produced by Disney Television Animation in this timeline. The series also released a 44-minute Christmas special in December 2023.

I can't believe we're here. It has been a long, crazy 3-year journey.
