The lengthy impasse between YouTube TV and Disney has come to an end as both parties struck an agreement on Friday evening.

As a result of this resolution, Disney-owned channels such as ESPN and ABC have been reinstated on YouTube TV.

“With the new agreement in effect, Disney’s comprehensive range of networks and stations — including ESPN and ABC — are once again accessible to YouTube TV subscribers,” stated ESPN’s public relations team on Friday.

According to The Athletic, Disney had a quarterly earnings call with Wall Street analysts on Thursday that acted as a de facto deadline for the negotiations.

Last week, YouTube TV offered its subscribers a $20 credit as customers were unable to watch college football and “MNF” for a second week.

“Google and Disney need to get a deal done and end this blackout,” FCC Chair Brendan Carr posted to his X account on Monday.

“People should have the right to watch the programming they paid for — including football. Get it done!”
