ABC News' Elizabeth Schulze reports that ABC, ESPN and other channels are returning to YouTube TV after a deal was reached, a relief for sports and “Dancing With the Stars” fans.

Disney's channels have been blocked from YouTube TV since Oct. 30 as the two companies negotiate a new carriage deal.

Disney and YouTube TV have reached a new deal to bring channels like ABC and ESPN back to the Google-owned livestreaming platform.

The agreement also includes access to ESPN's new direct-to-consumer service at no additional cost to YouTube TV subscribers, Disney said.

Disney and YouTube announced a deal Friday night to end a blackout that removed ABC, ESPN and other channels from the YouTube TV streaming platform.

While Disney stocks dipped after the call, partly in response to the YouTube TV outlook, Iger said that a strong lineup of movies through the rest of 2025 will likely bolster the entertainment division’s income overall and offset any potential future loss from the prolonged fight.

After two weeks, YouTube TV and Disney have reached an agreement to bring ESPN, ABC, and others back to the streaming platform.

ESPN, ABC and other Disney networks return to roughly 10 million YouTube TV customers.

YouTube TV's 10 million customers will regain access to ESPN, ABC and other Disney-owned channels after the two television titans agreed on a new distribution contract.
