I don't like "That's So Raven" and while I liked "Proud Family" initially, it really began to get on my nerves and I can't change the channel any faster when I see it's on.
"Even Stevens" would sit on a list of the best of the bunch. And I agree that "Lizzie McGuire" had enough good episodes to be categorized as one of the better ones. "The Famous Jett Jackson" was...okay. Most of the other ones I'm either not a big fan of, or they're so bad-looking that they immediately cause my trademark channel-flipping action. Actually, I haven't seen any of the really new ones.

Kim Possible and Dave the Barbarian are horrible pieces of animation. Can't Disney just go back to turning old animated films into new TV shows? I really want to see them do an Alice cartoon series. I once saw That's so Raven and whilst I think that some exagerate it's badness (*cough*Jack*cough*), it's still pretty poor.
Even Stevens, as Luke said, is by far the best. Practically every episode of that show was highly amusing or hilarious. Recent shows like Phil of the Future do their best to follow up that success, but they just don't accomplish it. Besides Stevens, I've never found the Disney Channel original series productions to be very good, and and its only gotten worse as of late. All of the newer shows are very low in quality - with the rotten apple of the rotten apples being That's So Raven. That's probably the only one of their shows I actually hate, due to its manufactored nature and crappy content.

Yes! I used to wtch this show every single day with my sister when it was on. I was always rotting for the two (I forgot their names--it's been so long) to get together and when they finally did the show was like over or something. That made me sad.
Hmm, this reminds me of something...wasn't there a live-action Alice in Wonderland that used to be on the Disney Channel, or was that on some other channel? I loved that show.
Oh, and as for shows I hate...That's So Raven is definitely at the top.
Wow, this thread is accomplishing what I hoped it would:
1. Masses of people replying
2. Find out what shows y'all hate (damn Southern instincts )
3. Remember all these older shows I forgot about
I used to LUUURRRRVVVES Flash Forward! Does anyone remember that episode where they all went camping and everything got ruined? That was my favorites episode.
Oh, and that reminds me: I loathed In a Heartbeat.

So do I! It's called Adventures in Wonderland and it used to be on English TV at around 7am on a Saturday morning, around the time that I used to get up as a five year old.

I prefer more original series like they used to have. I started weary of their animated series in the mid-90's when they were mostly all derived from their movies.
I actually watch none of these series. I know a few people who enjoy some but I'm just not really a fan of anything they put on now. I saw a couple episodes of 'Lilo & Stitch: The Series' and it was kinda enjoyable. 'That's So Raven' is not my thing but I know many fans of the show. I've seen it and those kind of shows are good goofy teen fun. 'The Proud Family' is one I have enjoyed too but I have only seen two episodes.
That made me sad.
