I wouldnt be too surprised. Disney has got to be the most sensitive group of
pussies to ever run a tv channel.

Is it the main Disney Channel, or Toon Disney? According to TV Guide's website,
Lloyd is (or was) scheduled only on Toon Disney.

It's Disney. They've been showing Lloyd for a while. But today put another
Weekenders in the slot.

Sorry; everytime I was looking for Rugrats at TVG's site, it also included
listings info for "Lloyd In Space" on Toon Disney, but not Disney Channel (due to
the fact that Paul & Joe were once involved with Rugrats) -- I was under the
impression that the show was only on Toon Disney, but I was wrong.

Guess what, it might not on Toon Disney either, as it's not scheduled
at their site. But, checking at Yahoo, it's still on the grid. (Note
that Yahoo, at least for Toon Disney, doesn't have ep details, it just
says: "Alien teen-ager Lloyd endures life on a space station.")
Also, Toon Disney's site no longer offers a link to the Lloyd page,
and those who had bookmarked it were redirected to the main page
instead. IMO, it's smoewhat of a sloppy job, since Lloyd is still in
the marquee at the top of the page, and you can still check out when
it's scheduled.
In fact, I just have and here is how Lloyd is being replaced,
according to Toon Disney: its weekdays 7am slot is now taken by Timon
and Pumbaa, its 8:30pm, everyday except Friday slot is also taken by
Timon and Pumbaa on weekdays and Teamo Supremo on weekends, and its
Sunday noon-time double bill slot is now occupied by a double bill of
Teacher's Pet.
So, an earlier post said it was due to the Columbia tragedy... I have
problem with that:
1. Wouldn't they also take Buzz Lightyear off the syndicated
"Animation Weekdays" block as well if that were the case?
2. Besides the fact they're both in space, what the heck does Lloyd
have anything to do with a shuttle disaster?

Also, adding to this. On Disney they had also been showing Lloyd at 4:30AM
(having a reshowing of the previous day's episode). Now that slot is taken by
The Proud Family.

Just checked zap2it.com's listing, and they've updated to include the
Weekenders replacing Lloyd, but looks like it's just a one week thing now. Next
week they show Lloyd on Disney's schedule again.
