TONS OF DISNEY CHANNEL UPDATES!

The Disney Channel should really focus on Disney movies a little more. I think at least once a week Disney should play an animated classic at a decent time of the day. And what about old episodes of "The Mickey Mouse Club" and more of the animated classic series as well. The Disney Channel is a joke to me these days.

I suppose we should be grateful that the good people at YouTube and MouseBits have salvaged pieces of the old Disney Channel for all to see.

Well, I'm 36 years old, so I can remember when The Disney Channel was actually The Disney Channel. Vintage Disney programming made up the majority of the schedule in the 1980's. We had classic cartoon shorts in the morning and afternoon, The Wonderful World of Disney every evening, and vintage titles shown throughout the month. Yes, there was other programming as well, but it didn't dominate the schedule as it does now. Then, in the 90's, vintage programming was relegated to late night only with Vault Disney. Still, I was able to get my fix, since I was up late, or I could tape something that caught my eye.

And as we know, a few years ago Vault Disney disappeared as well, and vintage Disney programming is a rarity on the channel now. So that's why I hate it. It may not be bad for what it is, but it's a mere shadow of what it was.

And I'm 21 years old and I too remember The GOOD Disney Channel. Why is this world always going to teenagers and no one else? I ask you, where oh where can we watch good Disney? Where? They're never shown on TV anymore, so where can we go to watch them?

I wish they'd make a classic Disney Channel that shows all the old stuff. Nick has a game show channel that shows all their old game shows, why can't Disney have a channel that shows all their old stuff.

Is there still going to be a That's So Raven DCOM? Anyone know anything?

No, I believe Raven stated so herself. I was a little disappointed.
