A Shout Out To 'Old School' Disney Channel

Dear Disney Channel during the 2000's,

Honestly, where do I even start? You filled my mornings, afternoons and nights with the utmost joy and laughter. From your animated series, to your "live action" series, to your little short series and obviously your "Disney Channel Original Movies," they were all such great work.

I'd like to start off with your animated series ... "The Proud Family," "Kim Possible," "Phineas and Ferb," and the list goes on. We all remember "The Proud Family" show with Suga Mama and the movie with the little peanut people. Often, to this day, we still compare funny looking objects to their little tiny bodies and big heads. And none of us can forget when Kim and Ron finally confessed their love for one another and kissed after what seemed like forever. And, even though "Phineas and Ferb" came a little later on, it's almost guaranteed that we all know all the lyrics to the theme song ..."there's 104 of summer vacation ..."

Next, thank you for providing such uplifting and relatable live action series as well. Shows like "Lizzie McGuire," "That's So Raven," "Hannah Montana" were among everyone's favorites. "Lizzie McGuire" was earlier on and had the coolest opening credits and relatable "inner conscious" character ever. Everyone's favorite episode had to be the Christmas special with Aaron Carter and once she got older, she had her own amazing movie, which will be mentioned later on, don't worry. "That's So Raven" was probably the funniest Disney Channel show of that time based purely on the faces that Raven would make when things wouldn't go her way. Also, she had the best catch phrases ever,"OH SNAP!" and "YA NASTY!" were a part of everyone's language for days after watching Raven. Lastly, "Hannah Montana." Thank you so much for the coolest show ever made. Okay, I may be slightly over exaggerating but still, Miley, Lily and Oliver made everyone jealous of their awesome friendship and extravagant adventures. "Hannah Montana" also got her own movie which will be discussed later and I'm almost positive every girl in her preteens went to see it in the theaters.

OMG! Who else remembers those awesome short series like "As The Bell Rings" and "Mike's Super Short Show?" Those 5 minutes in "As Bell Rings" were so eventful and you still have no idea how you got so attached to the characters in that short period of time. And I'm pretty sure everyone always tried to get that little hand motion down that would happen at the end of "Mike's Super Short Show" and once you finally figured it out, it was an automatic instinct whenever you would hear the jingle.

Lastly, your original movies were your most quality work, Disney. As I had mentioned before, "The Lizzie McGuire Movie" and "The Hannah Montana Movie" were the perfect "cherries" on top of the best shows ever. "The Climb" and "Hey Now (What Dreams Are Made Of)" are still a part of everyone's "Throwback Jams" playlists. Those songs were also accompanied by all of the hits from all three "High School Musical" and "Cheetah Girls" movies, two other amazing Original Movie mega hit trilogies. And who could forget the "Zenon" series and that ultimate jam of "Supernova Girl?" And the awesome "Halloweentown" movies? All such awesome memories.

So, thank you Disney Channel, circa the 2000's, for creating such awesome film pieces and making for some of the best memories of every 90's baby's childhood.

Sincerely,

Everyone

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
