"Three years ago, we challenged Terri Minsky to create a new series that expanded and broadened the Disney Channel brand. And so was born 'Andi Mack,' said Disney Channel president Gary Marsh in a statement. “We are forever grateful to Terri, her talented team and the outstanding cast, led by Peyton Elizabeth Lee, for delivering a meaningful and satisfying conclusion to three wonderful seasons of this brilliant series."
