The other day I was hanging out with my thirteen-year-old brother. We wanted to watch TV together and he told me to pick something to watch. I did not find anything on the channels so I went on demand and there I found one of my favorite Disney Channel shows, "That's so Raven." I lost it! I told him “we are watching Raven!”

After I watched one episode with him, he loved it and it made me reminisce my childhood. The show was cheesy, hilarious and innocent. The shows we watched growing up were completely different with the ones airing today. I realized that those shows were popular and aired over ten years ago when I was in elementary and middle school. Now I am on the verge of graduating college and I cannot help but look back and remember those shows. I know I was not the only one who adored them so here is a throwback for you too!

I did not realize that some of these cartoons and shows aired before the 2000s. It reminded me of the time where I did not have any responsibilities and the only struggle I had was deciding on which channel to watch.

If this list was not enough to throw you back then maybe this will. Disney Channel recently announced that they will air their 100^th Disney Channel movie next month. To celebrate, at the end of May they will have a marathon of ALL of the other Disney Channel movies.
