Well, this is only speculation, but my consistent theory is when Disney loses interest in a franchise for whatever reason, they bury it so the fanbase can't be reminded it exists. The Atlantis franchise was the first known case of this. I am assuming the reason is always money, if they don't make the projected revenue returns, they consider the franchise a failure and "archive it". Which was the problem with both Atlantis and Disney Infinity, they made some money, but not enough.

But I think there is another policy when it comes to tv shows, considering the consumers actually have named it: The Disney 65 episode policy. I think the corporation limits production runs so they can continually create new shows. 65 episodes is only 3 seasons, so Lab Rats had exceeded the specified allotment with season 4, Elite Force being the 5th season was far above the limit.
