I absolutely love The Lion Guard, but I fear that a great number of fans of The Lion King may not have given the show a chance when they heard it was a Preschool show. For that reason alone I don't think it would ever even be counted among the shows you mentioned. Which is rather sad because I could never have imagined a "Preschool Show" having the draw on me that is does. Yes I Love The Lion King, and yes anything in that universe will garner my attention. However if The Lion Guard was just a Preschool Show that assumed no effort is needed to engage and entertain The Target Audience. I doubt my Love for The Lion King would blind me to that fact.

Not only is The Lion Guard well made with respect to the franchise, but it is canon to the franchise. I know that is debated by many, but the effort put forth on the show is undeniable. I never feel that I am too old to watch it.

Rebbystar makes some very good points about the show's fanbase that I has not considered. I wish the Disney Executives paid more attention to a show's ratings and quality that to merchandise sales.
