Disney+ Launches New “Throwback” Channel With Animated Classics

by

In more contemporary times, Disney+ has delved deeper into both live-action and animated realms, offering timeless gems such as “X-Men ’97” and “Star Wars: Visions”. Although Disney+ hasn’t disclosed plans for rebooting series like “Gargoyles”, “Goof Troop”, and “Tale Spin”, they have launched a new channel that showcases these classics. This new platform also includes beloved shows from the Disney Channel, making up the “Throwback” channel, which is brimming with Disney Afternoon classics and other series that paved a novel route for the studio.

Disney+ has introduced a non-stop streaming channel called Disney+ Throwbacks, available for subscribers now. This channel revisits some classic shows that made the Disney Afternoon popular, such as Ducktales, Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, Tale Spin, Gargoyles, Recess, and more. Similar to traditional TV channels, Disney+ Throwbacks will occasionally insert advertisements, but it also offers a variety of other Disney content beyond animation. Shows like That’s So Raven, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Gilmore Girls, and Lizzie McGuire are also part of the lineup, enhancing the overall Disney experience.

Throwback Marathons

Beyond Disney Afternoon shows, the “Retro Channel” boasts animated series like Doug, Kim Possible, and Lilo & Stitch: The Series. Alongside these timeless classics, the upcoming platform promises exciting events such as DuckTales Treasure Hunt Weekend and Back-to-School With Recess marathons. Rest assured, there’s no shortage of opportunities for animation enthusiasts to revisit their nostalgic past.

In addition to the Throwback Channel, Disney+ also offers a variety of other live channels to keep things interesting, such as ABC News Live, “Hallowstream”, Disney Junior, Hits & Heroes, and numerous others. More recently, fans of The Simpsons can now enjoy a dedicated live channel for those who want to revisit the lives of Homer and his family. Additionally, a special channel called “Homerpalooza!” has been added, which focuses solely on Homer and features over 200 episodes highlighting his adventures as the head of the household.

Currently, Disney’s original animated projects aren’t just limited to afternoons as they once were. With the rise of streaming services outshining cable and network channels, it’s clear that “Throwback” is still a popular choice for fans wanting to revisit their childhood memories. However, there are several classic Disney animated series like Gargoyles, Darkwing Duck, and Recess that have been stuck in a holding pattern for years. As of now, no official word has been given about the return of these franchises, but maybe this new platform will bring about some changes.
