===Closure=== In March 2010, ABC made the decision to cease providing a three-hour block of [[E/I|E/I-compliant]], repurposed Disney Channel programming sent to its own stations and ABC affiliates. The network chose to lease out the three-hour timeslot and seek other programmers for an agreement to produce a syndicated block, not for the network, but for each ABC station as the network was turning the E/I responsibility back to local ABC stations. A month later, ABC's affiliate board announced that it had reached a deal with [[Litton Entertainment]], a production company which produced syndicated programming (including educational programs aimed at youth), to produce six, all-new, original half-hour E/I series exclusively for ABC stations for the 2011β12 season.<ref>{{cite web|title=Litton Entertainment to Produce and Distribute Original Programming for ABC Stations for Fall 2011|url=http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2010/04/19/litton-entertainment-to-produce-and-distribute-original-programming-for-abc-stations-for-fall-2011-35358/20100419litton01/|work=Litton Entertainment|publisher=The Futon Critic|date=April 19, 2010|access-date=May 11, 2020}}</ref> The block aired for the last time on August 27, 2011 without any announcement of its closure, and was quietly replaced by [[Litton's Weekend Adventure]] the following week on September 3.<ref name="ABCLitton"/><ref name="Littonannouncement"/><ref name="LittonSept3"/>
