Revival
In 2019, Disney Television Animation announced that they are producing a revival season of the show that will air on both Disney Channel and Disney+ at the same time, being expected to premiere on February 12th, 2021.

Disney's decision to air the series simultaneously on its flagship cable channel and its streaming service is especially to not deprive cable viewers from missing a show that marked a generation, aside from being the first Disney Television Animation production specifically made for Disney Channel rather than a broadcast network or syndication. Despite airing first on Disney+, the revival is still labeled as a Disney Channel original.

The voice cast for the series is expected to return to reprise their respective roles, save for Ripper, due to Mako Iwamatsu's passing in 2006, and Yonk, due to René Auberjonois' passing in 2019, being recasted with Greg Baldwin and Jeff Bennett, respectively.
