All 3 of these "graveyard stations" show programming superior to their main network. This is especially true with Disney XD.
Why is this? Why won't the main networks show the best stuff?
What does Nicktoons show?

nicktoons was far superior 10 years ago. it didn't even have commercials, just animated shorts or testing ground for pilots. boomerang has also declined in quality
it's just disney xd
>>93212288
Boomerang is literally CN 2.0. They fucking air nuPPG of all shows and TTG sometimes, too. I wouldn't 100% mind original content if they had kept it to the original plan of it just being Warner Brothers exclusives, but it's clear it's their throwaway channel for whatever the fuck.
And Nicktoons is the same. But any old Nick shows air at midnight, and its mostly Rugrats and Hey Arnold.
DisneyXD is the only decent one but even then they have some live-action shit plaguing the network despite that it was SUPPOSE to be their animation station.
None of them know what the fuck to do against Netflix and streaming. It's literally breaking them down.
xd isn't a graveyard station though?
>>93212288
Their main channels are already successful and popular. If they spread some of their support to their alternate channels, it probably benefits the network, I can imagine.

What does Disney XD have going for it after Gravity Falls and Wander Over Yonder ended?
I know they wrestled Pokémon away from Cartoon Network, but I don't watch anime.
>>93213068
but not great sister network isnt the same as graveyard network
unless they only thing on disney xd down is JUST reruns from other disney channels with no independent identity

Star Vs., DuckTales have a lot of hype right now. Even if you don't like them, it's garnering about the same level of interest as GF did pre-Weirdmaggedon

>What does Disney XD have going for it after Gravity Falls and Wander Over Yonder ended?
Star, you numbnut. After GF ended, Disney XD started clinging heavily to Star and having it advertised every commercial break. The show even got a whole month of episodes and an upcoming movie. DuckTales and probably Big Hero 6 are becoming flagships of the channel as well.

Disney XD isn't a graveyard channel.
It's Disney Channel for dudes.

I miss the old nicktoons network
Remember Nick GAS?

and dudettes.

Star Vs is outright considered a success in disney's eyes despite the shit ratings it gets on XD (since it does well on the app/website/VoD/digital purchases)

Harvey Beaks, which is better than anything on current Nick (even though Loud House is great)
>>93212288
A) They want people to subscribe to the secondary channel since it shifted from being a premium channel to ad-supported,
B) This is a fairly easy way to free up air time so they can devote the main channel to a relatively narrow focus. Either live action tween material or a one/two shows that they air constantly.
