The Disney Afternoon

The Disney Afternoon was a created-for-syndication two-hour television programming block which aired from September 10, 1990 to August 29, 1997. At that time, it was taken out of syndication, and a new Disney weekday afternoon block was started. The Disney Afternoon was produced and had shows by the Walt Disney Company.

Synopsis
The two hour block was broken up into four half-hour segments, each of which contained a cartoon series. As each season ended, the first cartoon shown in the lineup would typically be dropped, and a new one added to the end. The Disney Afternoon itself featured unique animated segments consisting of its own opening and "wrappers" around the cartoon shows shown.

Why It Rocked

 * 1) All the shows were wonderfully animated.
 * 2) The block had a fantastic line-up of original Disney animated shows
 * 3) The block was the spawn of many iconic Disney animated shows like DuckTales and Aladdin.
 * 4) The block was so memorable that Doug Walker from the Nostalgic Critic dedicated an entire video to it.
 * 5) The block was Disney's first step in a proper line up of original content, something that would later happen on Disney XD.
 * 6) The block spawned amazing games that became The Disney Afternoon Collection with games like DuckTales, TaleSpin, Darkwing Duck, and Goof Troop.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The block failed miserably because of their poor attempt to be cool and edgy.
 * 2) Depending your view, The Shnookums and Meat Funny Cartoon Show, Quack Pack, Mighty Ducks, and Bonkers (to some extent) are the only truly flawed shows on this block; the former, which you can read more about on its sister wiki, tried to cash in on the success of Ren & Stimpy, the second part of it's former sister wiki, tried to appeal to the 90s young hip crowd as a cartoon that was considered pandering as it first aired, and the latter of it's other sister wiki, tried borrowing the settings, believability, and unique concepts of Who Framed Roger Rabbit since the show itself was intentionally made to be an spin-off of said movie and had jumped the shark, such to the point that it's troubled production made the show in itself into an somewhat faithful, kinda unoriginal and flawed, very nonsensical, mindless and seemingly annoying mess of a cartoon (an show viewers can really like while it was generally hated and maligned for jumbling the complexity of Roger Rabbit and was also frequently ridiculed as a blatant rip-off of said film).
 * 3) Their animation can be a mixed bag at times.
