Milo Murphy's Law


Milo Murphy's Law is an American animated television series created by Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh. The series premiered on October 3, 2016 on Disney XD. It revolves around the title character, Milo Murphy, who is a descendant of Edward A. Murphy Jr., the namesake of Murphy's Law, which states that anything that can go wrong will go wrong. The series takes place in the same universe as Povenmire/Marsh's previous series Phineas and Ferb, with several references to the show occurring across season one, culminating in a crossover at the beginning of the second season and continuing throughout with several plot threads from the former series.
When asked about a third season in October 2019, Povenmire stated they were still waiting on a third season renewal, but said that it might happen when the series is run on the Disney+ streaming service.
When asked again about the current odds of a third season in May 2020, Povenmire stated they are still at a low, and the odds all hinge on the uptick in views on Disney+ which has yet to happen.
