Kim Possible Revival?

[glennbyrnes]

According to comicbook.com, Disney plans to either reboot, revive, or make a live-action version of Kim Possible.

Oh no! Not Kim! I don't her to be rebooted and go to craptown!
(Note: I don't actually care about her show, but for the fanbase it would suck if the reboot is crap)

It seems like for now it's simply an idea from Disney, but nothing concrete is in development yet.

There already was a live-action Kim Possible film released.

I love Kim Possible but I have to say that I'm lukewarm on the idea of a reboot because from past experience it could go either way quality-wise.

I don't know. The more I hear about it, the more likely it seems.

I think the Disney Upfront on May 13th may formally reveal it

The last time I watched Kim Possible was in 2007.....

Do we really need to do this? The show ended perfectly fine with graduating from high school, why does everything need to get a revival nowadays?

It's going to happen eventually. Nothing is truly dead anymore.

They'll bring back anything just for it's recognizability. Kim Possible was right next to Phineas and Ferb in most recognizable series along with Lilo and Stitch which will probably also get a new series announced unless I haven't heard about it yet and it's already in the works.

Lilo and Stitch coming back would also make Disney Channel and Disney+ my destination

We need the good stuff after Proud Flopily

It might work. They continued Totally Spies and The Winx Club even after the girls graduated from high school.

If done correctly, yes!

They never finished World of Winx, cliffhanger remember?

Apparently, there was a revival or some kind of sequel series in-talks as far back as 2020 but according to SAG-AFTRA listings the registration has been dormant since and was likely silently scrapped.

The idea is that networks & studios are convinced "pre-sold product", or, established properties, would be a good lure to bring viewers back. Doesn't always work.

This isn't anything new it's been happening for decades (just look at the 90s line-ups.) It's just far more noticeable today where we have next-to-no new IP to coincide with it. And if we do, it's canned after 1 season with overnight drops on D+ for the dedicated viewer base to go dig up. Appointment television used to at least expose viewers to shows and it they changed the channel or not was the deciding factor on if they had a hit or a flop.

On streaming (especially D+) people only watch what they recognize as they sorta treat streaming similarly to something like a rental service where they're seeking out that one specific thing and if it's not massive recognizable IP, why are they paying the $12 a month? New IP doesn't stand a chance.

I almost forgot this thread existed, and the 2019 TV movie was quickly forgotten. Makes me think that they were either considering a new live-action series or an animated revival.
