It looks like production on season 2 is just beginning.

I would be inclined to think that because the series was renewed so early in the first seasons run. At the very least the number of episodes would be the same.

I would think so. Either 26 episodes, or 24 + a TV movie, just like this season. To clear some confusion, the way these shows usually work is that 65 episodes are ordered at first. Usually with two 26 episode seasons and one 13 episode season. However, if the show proves successful enough, more episodes could be ordered right away, which means the 13 episode season would be turned into a 26 episode season. Of course, if the show proves to be a massive failure, it could be cancelled at any point. Usually they like to cancel shows after a season has finished, but cancelling the show in the middle of a season's production is far from unheard.

So I'd say it seems The Lion Guard is currently proving to be successful and popular enough to at least provide us with 65 episodes across three seasons. More than that? That's to be seen. And it could always be cancelled earlier if its success suddenly crumbles. It's hard to predict, since it all pretty much boils down to how well the toys and other merchandise sell. Surprising as it is, even TV ratings don't really matter that much. There have been popular cartoons that have stopped just cause the toys didn't sell well due to bad marketing. And poorly received shows that have gone on forever thanks to good toy sales.

I would welcome another Lion Guard T. V. Move to Kick off season 2. As far as getting 65 episodes over three seasons. I absolutely love The Lion Guard, but I'll take it one season at a time. As far as buying Lion Guard merchandise, I am still waiting for the smaller Fuli plush to show up at my local Walmart. I will definitely buy the series on DVD when they become available.

Well, as long as merchandise sells, 65 episodes is pretty much guaranteed. That's how these series work most of the time. If they decide to continue it after that, the amount of episodes is anybody's guess. They usually start being really random after that.

Well if they keep making episodes, I'll keep watching them.

and if we keep buying the merch, the more it will continue.

True, but I can not buy all the merch they produce. I will definitely buy DVD's. and the small Fuli plush when I find her.
