YouTube TV is on day four with no access to Disney programming such as ESPN, ABC and Disney Channel as of Nov. 3.
Here's the rundown: On Oct. 30, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. ET, the distribution deal between Disney, which owns ESPN, ABC and numerous other networks, will end. At that point, YouTube TV will no longer air any Disney-owned networks until a new deal is struck.
YouTube TV subscribers lost access to ESPN, ABC and other Disney networks, but alternative streaming options remain ahead of college football weekend.
