Let him know we want the Mickey Mouse Club, Zorro, Disneyland, Walt Disney Presents, Wonderful World of Color/Disney, Ink and Paint Club, Disney Family Album, People and Places and the wonderful vintage Disney movies. Please tell your friends and don't let up until they comply with us. I know I for one want to watch the wonderful shows I grew up with and let my kids see them as well.

TV viewers are watching more sitcoms each week than they did a decade ago, a new study concluded. Unfortunately for broadcast networks, they're tuning in to "Friends," "Seinfeld" and "Everybody Loves Raymond" reruns more than anything new on the air. As network executives spend early spring behind closed doors plotting their fall schedules, the statistics starkly illustrate how these programmers are forced to compete against the best of the last 30 years when developing new comedies. "The viewers say we're not going to tolerate mediocrity anymore because we've got the classics and there's a lot of competition out there," said NBC Entertainment President Kevin Reilly on Thursday.

Seinfeld is still hip and very funny. I'd rather watch my classic Disney on dvd.

Originally Posted By Imagineer This Iger is a liar and a hypocrite! He said there is no demand or ratings for classic Disney movies and tv shows. Then why is Disney showing an old MGM movie, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang on the ABC Family Channel? MGM is ok, but nobody will watch an old classic Disney movie? If they can show CCBB and Willy Wonka and Harry Potter 100 times a year why can't they show classic movies like Mary Poppins which came out about 4 years before CCBB at least on the ABC Family Channel? Email the ABC Family Channel and demand that they show classic Disney movies like Mary Poppins, Swiss Family, The Love Bug etc. if they won't show it on the Disney Channel. Iger has no excuse because ABC family will show older classic movies from other movie studios, but they will rarely show classic Disney movies. Call Iger on this and don't let him get away with it and have a nice Disney day! )

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy Well I would gladly sit through such gems as Walt Disney Presents, The Ink and Paint Club, and beloved Disney featurettes like "Donald in Mathemagic Land" of if only they were re-broadcast. And it's also a great way to check out movies I might never think about renting, or think I wouldn't like, but would give a chance if they came on TV.

Originally Posted By TheRedhead It seems like the Hallmark Channel is the place to find the old Disney movies. I swear there must have shown Pollyanna, Swiss Family, and Parent Trap a dozen times each last month. And I second the "buy them on DVD" cry. That first group of "Vault Disney" DVD's (Pollyanna, Swiss Family, Parent Trap, and one other?) are some of the best DVDs I own. The special features are mind-blowing. THAT is the support we need to show - buying good DVDs - so they'll make more.

We don't want repeats of bad shows, bad pilots and terrible reality shows. We want classic Disney shows. Thank you.
