Oh why didnât I see this place before? This is the perfect place for me to rant about it.
Real genius move, Disney. NOT. Start off with two channels, each having some Disney-related cartoons and showing REAL Disney movies often. Then, slowly corrupt one by acting as if inviting ANY teen in to rip off old shows and pretend itâs always never-before-seen, and forget your old shows and movies. After that, move some cartoon shows that were on Disney Channel to Toon Disney, so fans of the older shows can still catch reruns. Then, show them only really early in the morning on Disney Channel. Then, realize that your âDisney Channelâ seems to have too much stuff for teen girls, and even it out by kicking out the Toon Disney and replacing it with another channel for teen guys, both sides corrupting young children of today that havenât hit teen years yet. And to top it all off, name it after an icon meaning laughing with scrunched face from online. Sure, Disney, way to go.
You know whatâs really bad? I had stopped caring much about Disney Channel and thought maybe I could trade it on my TV for Toon Disney instead. And lo and behold, Toon Disney had been overthrown by fools. The animated shows on Disney XD ARENâT EVEN DISNEY! They looked like theyâre bought from other careless cartoon channels. âSpend Saturday morning rightâ indeed.
Doesnât Disney realize that Disney should be for all ages? Doesnât Disney realize that little kids will watch all this? Whatâs worse is that little kids donât notice the drastic change. Most donât see real Disney slipping away. I canât tell you how many times Iâve come across a little kid who is so naiive about Disney nowadays. Instead of being inspired to stay a kid somewhere in their heart, Disney is pushing little kids to start gossiping about teen celebs and dating early for no reason except some kid looks good for now. There was even an episode of one show that teased kids that havenât kissed before, therefore pressuring the viewers to go out and kiss even if it means nothing. BAD Disney, BAD Disney.
Sure Toon Disney was bolted down by Disney making television shows out of thier old Classics, but some shows had some charm to them, like Recess or House of Mouse. And Disney decides, âYou know what? Weâve been neglecting our old shows and movies only to get kids hyped with teen pop stars, and it seems to me that itâs aimed for teenage girls. What should we do to make it even? HmmmâŠDO THE SAME THING TO THE OTHER CHANNEL ONLY FOR TEEN BOYS! PERFECT!â
imitates Dory Toon Disney, come ba-a-aaack!
This is what Disneyâs doing.: imitates The Emperorâs New Groove
âWelcome to Disney XD! The ultimate extreme Disney Channel for guys! Complete with teenage material for boys!â
Toon Disney:âUhâŠI donât understand how this could happenâŠâ
Newer Disney: âLemme clear it up for you. At the premiere tomorrow, I give the word, and your old beloved shows and movies of whatâs left of the old animated Disney which Disney is treasured for in the first place because itâs for all ages will be destroyed, to make way FOR THIS!â
Toon Disney: âBut where will we go?â
Newer Disney: âHmmmâŠdonât know, donât care. How 'bout that?â
Am I right?
Seriously guys, can Disney on TV have no balance? What the heck are they thinking??
Jane (from Tarzan) says: when Disney Channel goes teen-celeb-central: âWell it canât get much worse than this, can it?â breaking news, Disney XD overthrows Toon Disney despite fansâ angered protests âWell obviously it can.â
Hereâs a quote from Atlantis that I find perfect for this situation:
-âThe people are content-â
-âThey do not know any better! We were once a great people and now we live in ruins! The kings of our past would weep if they could see have far we have fallen.â
Argh I hate DisneyXD. Overrated. imitates Kuzco All I know is that it looked iffy. And Iâm not the only one who thinks that, Iâm sure.
imitates Tantor DISNEY! Are you sure this channelâs a good example? It looks QUESTIONABLE to me!
P.S. Iâve once read this awesome absolutely intensely lovable Disney fanfic in which while House of Mouse goes out of business forever, Mickey and friends wonât stand for only existing as a CG preschool show. Itâs insulting, not only to Mickey but to Walt Disney himself! Donaldâs ranting and raving after being forced into it is perfect for his character. Then the older Disney characters even die as fans forget about them (kind of like Tinker Bell dying if one does not believe in fairies). Itâs a really intriguing read and I would definitely recommend it to you, but last time I checked, this amazing fanfic was deleted. sigh I wish the author would post it up again, and not only that, even send it to Disney!
And on another note, Iâve planned this for a long while, but I kept putting it off: should I write a letter and petition to Disney before it sinks even furthur?
