Luckily, a new deal has been reached according to a report from Deadline, and now the shows, channels, and movies that were removed should be returned to the service shortly. Disney shared in a statement regarding the dispute: “We are pleased to announce that after a brief disruption, we have reached a new distribution agreement with Google’s YouTube TV for continued carriage of our portfolio of networks.
