List of Disney TV programming blocks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Disney stand alone programming TV blocks are block of Disney shows on non-Disney channels or TV stations around the world. Disney puts together stand alone TV block to reach those audiences that do not have access to cable or satellite.[1][2]
By the end of March 2000, Disney was in 35 countries in three regions, Latin America, Europe and Asia-Pacific (13 countries) with 82 blocks with more than 9,000 hours total per year. The block were under various names: Disney Club, Disney's FilmParade, Disneytime, Disney!, DisneyKid, Club Disney, Saturday Disney, Disney Adventures, Disney Animation Hour, Disney Fun Time, Good Morning Disney, Disney Hour, Disney Sandhya, Disney Toontown, Sunday Club Disney, I Love Disney, Disney Animation Time, Dragon Club (China).[3] A large number of these blocks served as international equivalents to The Disney Afternoon and Disney's One Saturday Morning.
Disney also had a series of channels and blocks called Jetix, originally called Fox Kids, acquired in the purchase of Fox Family Worldwide, now ABC Family Worldwide.
