Ok, serious Disney Channel throwback - does anyone remember The Torkelsons? It was this sitcom about this family from a really small down. The show was centered around the oldest daughter (there were 5 kids and they all had double names) and was raised by a single mom. They were always struggling and kinda poor.

Anyway, i remember the show ending when the mom meets some well-off guy with 2 kids who owned a kids clothing company and they move to a big city (i think LA?) I dont think the show stayed on much after that.

There was another show called Flash Forward - i dont recall what the show was about too much, just a guy and girl BFF in middle school. looking back it wasnt anything spectacular, but i loved it!

[cue CT4 saying "BEANS" right now]

I miss the old Disney shows...back when it was still good -- Even Stevens, Flash Forward, Bug Juice. Heck, even Kids, Inc. and the Mickey Mouse Club!

I have to admit that I do like some of their for-TV movies: Johnny Tsunami, The Color of Friendship, the Erica Enders Story, that one about the surfer girl who comes to Hawaii to learn about her mom, etc. Those movies were pretty good.

Thanks for this song in my head: "Kids Incorporated K! I! D! S!"

Johnny Tsunami was awesome, and I liked Color of Frienship too :)
I miss old school Disney...

Anyone else remember Fluppy Dogs? I think they were Disney.

OMG OTW + Drolefille = my GCers of the day.

I remember both of those. And on the Torkelsons, the little girl used to always talk to The Man in the Moon.

Flash Forward didn't have too many episodes...the main characters were Ben Foster & Jewel Satire

I used to be addicted to the Disney Channel as well. I guess I've just grown out of it over the past few years. I agree with y'all that old school Disney and Nickelodeon was the junk! From 1996-2001 the programming on those channels was classic, wholesome, and great. As far as Disney goes, I still watch some of the movies. I watch Life with Derek, Naturally Sadie (Love Canadian tv). I miss Smart Guy, the Proud Family, Lizzie McGuire, and Even Stevens.

Does anyone remember a tv show called My Brother & Me? It was on Nickelodeon, I think,

My favorite Disney Channel shows were Even Stevens and Proud Family. I grew tired of That's So Raven and only really watched it when William (Cory's genius friend) was on there.

I do watch some of the Disney Channel movies though.

Even Stevens was directed by an ASA.:)

I had forgotten about the Torkelsons but IMDB reminded me all about Dorothy Jane and Kirby Scroggins, lol.

I blame the Torkelson's for wanting me to get a house w/ Bay windows so I could have a window seat where I can sit and talk to the moon! lol

OMG y'all forgot one! The Famous Jett Jackson!! That was pretty good! The theme song was by one of my favorite boybands Youngstown!
