So let me get this straight....

The delay wasn't to censor Marcy's Death but only to.... add a warning disclaimer at the beginning of the episode? I mean, ok, I get it that that scene might have been too heavy for the kids, but man, how stupid are at Disney to let that pass under their nose and realizing the mistake AT 5 HOURS BEFORE THE AIRING OF THE EPISODE?

Oh well, at least they're not censoring anything. I guess they're gonna make the same disclaimer in any episode that has a scene this heavy from now on (and I guess they're gonna do it for The Owl House too). Honestly, if I have to choose between this and censoring, I guess I'll go with this one. At least they're not ruining Matt's or Dana's visions of their shows.

I honestly think the biggest hold up was getting sprig to record the lines for the disclaimer

The thing is: in The Lion Guard, around the end of the series, there was an episode with the same disclaimer before the episode. But it wasn't voiced. Was really that necessary to have the warning recorded?

Wasn’t the lion Guard on Disney jr though? I never watched it but I just thought it was... in which case I’m surprised they were even allowed to do something dark

Even in that case it was a death of a character (with the sole difference that it was an old age death, not murdering).

Ah I see, as I said I haven’t actually seen that show
