But there are so many titles not on that first list, such as The Yellowstone Cubs, The Bluegrass Special, The Wetback Hound, and Rusty and the Falcon, just to name some.

Here's a schedule of the Disneyland anthology series:

http://www.billcotter.com/tvbook/appendix-b.htm

So many of those titles aren't on UD's list.

Using Bill Cotter's book "The Wonderful World of Disney Television", and Dave Smith's "Disney A to Z", I could make a list, and have tried in the past...I don't even know where I left off last time. It's a lot of work, and maybe I just need to work on it some more. But, especially with DMC carrying some of these titles now, I think it'd make a great page on UD.

Or I could just not be lazy and work on the list myself and not stop until it's done...

Thanks, anyway, for the help, Dan!

I think when I made the list, I decided it would be unbearable unless I limited inclusion to 2-hour programs. Of course then DMC started picking hour-long ones to give the exclusive DVD treatment to. The line then blurs between TV episode and TV movie... and distinguishing between the two seems like a useless task when Disney has so little interest in releasing their TV content, especially in general retail.

On the Other Animation page, why does Princess Mononoke appear at the end with no number? Shouldn't it be slotted into its chronological place?

Because it's Miramax-branded.

Aha. Is there an interesting story behind that branding choice? It seems odd that it is the only prominent Miyazaki film from that era not given the Studio Ghibli label.

Well it still is Studio Ghibli, but it was the very first Ghibli film Disney put in American theaters. As one of Miyazaki's most violent films (and with a PG-13 rating to boot), Disney wasn't going to put their name on it. Even though the studio is now okay with Disney-branding PG-13 films and their most visible ones at that, I kind of doubt that <i>Mononoke</i> will change for its next release.
