| - As of 2015, the combined run of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody is the longest-running show, at 158 episodes and a movie. Although Gargoyles is listed as an exception to this rule, it should be noted that the show's last twelve episodes, aired as part of the show's third season (subtitled The Goliath Chronicles), are not considered canon by creator Greg Weisman, unlike the first episode of that season, "The Journey" (which was later adapted as the first two issues of the 2006 Gargoyles comic book). As such, the canon run of the Gargoyles TV show is actually 66 episodes long, just narrowly making it an exception to this.

Although Gargoyles is listed as an exception to this rule, it should be noted that the show's last twelve episodes, aired as part of the show's third season (subtitled The Goliath Chronicles), are not considered canon by creator Greg Weisman, unlike the first episode of that season, "The Journey" (which was later adapted as the first two issues of the 2006 Gargoyles comic book). As such, the canon run of the Gargoyles TV show is actually 66 episodes long, just narrowly making it an exception to this. Darkwing Duck, Goof Troop, Aladdin, and Timon and Pumbaa had only 65 episodes of Disney networks (The Disney Afternoon or Toon Disney), but other networks such as ABC and CBS ordered additional episodes. The rule officially ended in August 2004 when Disney Channel ordered 13 additional episodes of That's So Raven, after the show had filmed its 65 episodes. Kim Possible originally ended after 65 episodes, with the movie So the Drama intended to serve as the show's last three episodes (though in the United States, five other episodes from the third season were held over and aired after the movie's premiere). Due to popularity, the show was picked up for a fourth and final season. This is considered the turning point for the rule being phased out. Since then, the only Disney show that ended at exactly 65 episodes was ANT Farm in March of 2014.
