The Disney Channel removed an episode intended to be Hannah Montana's third season premiere after some initial concerns on how the disease was portrayed ...
The episode (titled "No Sugar, Sugar") features Hannah's friend Oliver dealing with diabetes ... The Disney Channel's Standards and Practices team consulted with medial experts to "be sure [the story] was told responsibly" ...
Notwithstanding the measures we took, and based on the episode's preview and early feedback from parents, we removed the episode from [the] schedule and are now reevaluating it. We will await the results of the episode review by a variety of experts and then will make a determination on the episode's future. Most importantly, we listened to those who expressed their concerns and consulted with the creative team (programmers and producers). Still, there is great interest, especially from parents, in seeing the subject of living with diabetes somehow incorporated into our storytelling for kids and families, so we're hopeful we'll do so in the future.
