Disney's House of Mouse

Bobs Gannaway and Tony Craig aimed to have the series reintroduce Disney characters to a new generation who were only familiar with them via marketing and "homogenized theme-park figures".

There were other limits for this program as well, which forbids the use of Pixar characters due to Disney not owning content from Pixar prior to 2006 and King Louie following a legal dispute.

It reran from September 9, 2002 to February 4, 2006 on Disney Channel.

The show ceased broadcast on U.S. television on February 6, 2009, after being aired for the last time on Toon Disney before becoming Disney XD.

The series also includes many relatively obscure and otherwise rarely used Disney characters, often with speaking parts for the first time – for example, Li'l Bad Wolf and April, May and June, who had appeared very often in Disney comic books but never before in an animated cartoon, made their animated debuts on House of Mouse.

Each episode focuses on a story involving Mickey and his associates facing an issue during an evening's operation of the club, and their efforts to overcome it – the most common plot for episodes involves the group dealing with a serious problem caused by Pete in his attempts to shut down the club and use it for his own gains.
