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.

You tell it, I totally agree. I freaking loved Bug Juice. They need to put that series out on DVD. I somehow managed to download some of the episodes from Season One from Limewire or I2Hub I think and I treasure them!
The older movies were really good, the newer ones suck. Disney Channel took a turn for the worse and now I can't bear to watch it anymore. Bring back 1997-2000 Disney please! I am not letting my kids watch it ever (when I have kids, a few years from now).
Oh yeah... "Bug juice! It doesn't come in a jar! Bug juice comes from who you are!" Man, I <3 camp. Season one was the best, can I get an amen?!

Amen!!!! "It has a flavor of what you can become!!"
Bug juice made me want to go to camp sooooo bad, but my parents wouldn't let me go that far away....so I grew up and became a camp counselor instead.

Ha! I did the same thing. My parents couldn't afford camp (I have three other siblings). As soon as I was old enough I started looking for counselor jobs. That was the most stressful and awesome summer of my life. I got paid to go to camp. It rocked so hard.

Ditto! Getting ready for camp is already stressing me out (I got a promotion, so it's more business than fun this year), but I still can't wait for camp to start! I still have another couple weeks to go.  There was another Disney show that I loved so much...I was thinking about it today, but it escapes me now....grrrr, I'll remember it as soon as I log off.

BEANS!!! 
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 am SO going to make my future spawn watch awesome kids shows, not the crap of today but what I grew up on. Carebears, My Little Pony, TMHT (yes, in the UK they were Hero Turtles, not Ninja Turtles. The movies came out as Ninja Turtles but the cartoon didn't. Why, I do not know!), Dangermouse, Muppet Babies, Ren and Stimpy, Sharky and George (did anyone watch that in the US? The theme song is still one of the all-time greats!). Yeah, I watched Ren and Stimpy as a kid and it's still awesome.

Great list, but you forgot Rainbow Brite!
Oh, and it always amuses me that the guy who played Gordo on Lizzie McGuire was like 20 when they finished shooting, and they were supposed to be in 7th grade.

You missed out!! If I could ever find 2 working VCR's, I'd copy the recording I have and mail it to you.

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!

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.
