What’s Happening:
- As reported by PopCulture, Disney Television Animation sent out a message through social media on Friday, April 30, that the season two finale of Amphibia titled “True Colors” would not air on Saturday, May 1, due to an unexpected delay.
- The message read, “Due to a scheduling shift, “True Colors” will not premiere this Saturday. Stay tuned for the new date and time! #Amphibia.”
- However, because the announcement was made so late, iTunes had released the episode, allowing fans the ability to purchase and watch the finale before it was taken down.
- This has led to leaks about what happens and others posting the full episode online, with the show’s season finale still not announced with a new date and time for the premiere on Disney Channel.
- Matt Braly, creator of the series, got help from voice actor Troy Baker (The Last of Us) who plays Captain Grime on the show, with a message to not spoil the season finale.
- The show was already renewed for a third season before the start of the second last July.
About the Show:
