Really curious. Does Disney not find the show as profitable as Family Guy, or are they willing to sell their shows back, FG included?
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

Yeah, it's weird. They have Freeform, FXX, and several other channels they could use to rerun Fox cartoons. What about the AS deal is more lucrative for Disney?

That's the thing, I'm not sure what is more profitable to Disney- Warner purchasing the rights to air these shows or the ad revenue they'll receive by airing them on their own channels.

But with the recent announcement that FXX and Freeform are among the Disney channels that Spectrum will lose, they might see syndication as more profitable once again and [as] could reclaim Family Guy... or not, since it's likely that these channels were on the cutting board in the first place.

It's official- season 9 of Bob's Burgers starts airing in October.

Since they've clearly renewed their contract, I wonder what's next. Trying to get Family Guy back makes the most sense, but I have a feeling that Disney may still want to hold onto it. So I have another theory- what if [as] picks up Archer instead?
