The Owl House Season 2B Shouldn't Be All About Lumity
The Owl House hiatus is almost over! This past weekend creator Dana Terrace confirmed that the animated show will return to Disney Channel on March 19 alongside Amphibia for the second half of their respective seasons. We received this news through a cable leak as opposed to a trailer or official announcement, meaning both showrunners were forced to react suddenly on Twitter with a mixture of fun doodles and gifs.
But we don’t need a lofty showcase to justify excitement for The Owl House’s return. It has cemented such a queer and welcoming fandom that the mere mention of its hiatus coming to an end was met with rampant enthusiasm. Viewers have coped with its absence through a mixture of fanart, theories, and picking apart every little slither of information that emerges from the production crew. It’s been a tough few months for gay disasters the world over, but we got through it.

We have no idea where the show is going, but with only half a season and a selection of extended specials left to be aired, it has so much ground to cover and sadly not much time to do it.

Luz Noceda must find her way back to the human realm, say farewell to all the friends she’s made across The Boiling Isles, and deepen her relationship with Amity Blight all in six or so hours of runtime. Similar shows have far longer to flesh out narratives of a similar scope, but that doesn’t mean I’m worried.
The show might venture in an unconventional direction and completely abandon the story I’m expecting to see unfold, perhaps bridging a permanent bridge between both realms as it deals with the fallout of such a development. Emperor Belos
