'''The Disney Afternoon''' (later known internally as the '''Disney-Kellogg Alliance''' when unbranded from 1997-1999), sometimes abbreviated as '''TDA''', was a created-for-[[Broadcast syndication|syndication]] two-hour [[programming block]] of animated television series. It was produced by [[Disney Television Animation|Walt Disney Television Animation]] and distributed through its syndication affiliate [[Disney–ABC Domestic Television|Buena Vista Television]]. Each show from the block has aired reruns on [[Disney Channel]] and [[Toon Disney]]. Disney Channel reaired four shows (''[[Darkwing Duck]]'', ''[[TaleSpin]]'', ''[[DuckTales (1987 TV series)|DuckTales]]'', and ''[[Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers (TV series)|Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers]]'') on "Block Party," a two-hour block that aired on weekdays in the late afternoon/early evening.<ref name="October/November 1995">"Block Party: Four Disney Animated Series." ''The Disney Channel Magazine'', Vol. 13, no. 5, October/November 1995: p. 36.</ref>

The Disney Afternoon's block had four half-hour segments, each of which contained an [[animated series]]. As each season ended, the lineup would shift - the remaining three would move up a time slot and a new show would be added to the end. The Disney Afternoon itself featured unique animated segments consisting of its opening and "wrappers" around the cartoon shows.

The Disney Afternoon originally ran from September 10, 1990, to August 29, 1997 as The Disney afternoon. For the 1997-1999 television seasons, it lost its name but was known internally as Disney-Kellogg Alliance, and shortened to 90 minutes. This version was followed by its gradual replacement by ''[[Disney's One Too]]'' for [[UPN]] in 1999. Some of the shows also aired on Saturday mornings on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] and [[CBS]], concurrently with their original syndicated runs on The Disney Afternoon.

''[[Goof Troop]]'' is the only show to reach the 2000s, with the 2000 direct-to-video finale ''[[An Extremely Goofy Movie]]''. The 2010s and 2020s saw revivals of some shows such as [[DuckTales (2017 TV series)|''DuckTales'' as a reboot]] on [[Disney Channel]] (and [[Disney XD]]), and ''[[Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers (TV series)|Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers]]'' with a [[Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers (film)|live-action animation hybrid film]] on Disney+. In 2023, a reboot for ''[[TaleSpin]]'' and a live-action series for ''[[Gargoyles (TV series)|Gargoyles]]'' were reported to be in development for Disney+.<ref>{{Cite web |title="It's been in the planning stages for a while" |url=https://twitter.com/Aaron_Sparrow/status/1645526261505343488 |access-date=2023-06-11 |website=Twitter }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Kit |first=Borys |date=2023-10-16 |title=Gary Dauberman, James Wan's Atomic Monster Tackling Live-Action 'Gargoyles' For Disney+ (Exclusive) |url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/gargoyles-live-action-tv-show-reboot-1235342849/ |access-date=2023-10-16 |website=The Hollywood Reporter |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Otterson |first=Joe |date=2023-10-16 |title='Gargoyles' Live-Action Series Reboot in the Works at Disney+ From Gary Dauberman, James Wan's Atomic Monster |url=https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/gargoyles-live-action-series-reboot-disney-plus-gary-dauberman-james-wans-1235758161/ |access-date=2023-10-16 |website=Variety |language=en-US}}</ref> 

== Background ==
The Disney Afternoon goes back to [[Michael Eisner]] becoming Disney's CEO in 1984 and his push into steady animated television production, which would be based on new characters to bring in new young fans, with a newly launched TV animation department. He set up a Sunday meeting at his house consisting of creatives. They included [[Tad Stones]] from feature animation and [[Jymn Magon]] and Gary Kriesel from the music division. ''Mickey and the Space Pirates'' was pitched by Stones, but was turned down because [[Mickey Mouse]] is the company symbol. Stones also pitched a ''[[The Rescuers|Rescuers]]'' TV series – the [[The Rescuers Down Under|sequel]] was already under development at the time.<ref name="sf">{{cite news |last1=Zakarin |first1=Jordan |date=November 1, 2018 |title=Life is like a hurricane: An oral history of the Disney Afternoon |url=https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/disney-afternoon-oral-history-ducktales-darkwing-rescue-rangers |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181122211652/https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/disney-afternoon-oral-history-ducktales-darkwing-rescue-rangers |archive-date=November 22, 2018 |access-date=May 19, 2020 |work=SYFY WIRE |language=en}}</ref> Eisner suggested the [[Gummy bear]] as a series, given his kids liked the candy.<ref name=fbee>{{cite news|last1=Bentley|first1=Rick|title=Disney TV Animation Is 30 Years Old, and It's Going Strong|url=https://www.vnews.com/news/nation/world/14417461-95/disney-tv-animation-is-30-years-old-and-its-going-strong|access-date=April 21, 2015|work=Valley News|agency=The Fresno Bee|date=November 19, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304093955/http://www.vnews.com/news/nation/world/14417461-95/disney-tv-animation-is-30-years-old-and-its-going-strong|archive-date=March 4, 2016}}</ref> [[Disney Television Animation]]'s first two shows, ''[[The Wuzzles]]'' and ''[[Adventures of the Gummi Bears]]'', were sold to two networks, [[CBS]] and [[NBC]], respectively, for their Saturday morning cartoon blocks.<ref>{{cite news |last1=FRIENDLY |first1=DAVID T. |title=Team Disney--Flying High in Burbank |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1985-07-28-ca-5352-story.html |access-date=May 19, 2020 |work=Los Angeles Times |date=July 28, 1985}}</ref>

== History ==
=== The Disney Afternoon ===
''[[DuckTales (1987 TV series)|DuckTales]]'', the series which would serve as the launching pad for what would become ''The Disney Afternoon'', premiered in first-run syndication in the fall of 1987. Two years later in the fall of 1989, ''DuckTales'' was joined by ''Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers'', and both series were being offered in syndication as an hour-long program block. ''The Disney Afternoon'' kept these shows, added ''Gummi Bears'' and ''[[TaleSpin]]'',<ref name="sf" /> and premiered on September 10, 1990, via Disney's syndication arm [[Disney–ABC Domestic Television|Buena Vista Television]].<ref name="co">{{cite news |last1=Metevia |first1=Thomas |title=How well do you remember 'The Disney Afternoon'? |url=https://www.clickorlando.com/quiz/2019/04/08/how-well-do-you-remember-the-disney-afternoon/ |access-date=May 19, 2020 |work=WKMG |date=April 8, 2019 |language=en}}</ref>

''DuckTales'' had been airing on many affiliates of the then-young [[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox]] network and its group of [[Fox Television Stations|owned-and-operated stations]], including [[KTTV]] in [[Los Angeles]]; this may have been due to the fact that [[the Walt Disney Company]]'s [[chief operating officer]] at the time, [[Michael Eisner]], and his then-[[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox]] counterpart, [[Barry Diller]], had worked together previously at [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] and at [[Paramount Pictures]].<ref name="Stewart">{{cite book|author=James B. Stewart|url=https://archive.org/details/disneywar00jame_0/page/94|title=Disney War|publisher=[[Simon & Schuster]]|year=2005|isbn=0-6848-0993-1|location=[[New York City]], [[New York (state)|New York]]|pages=[https://archive.org/details/disneywar00jame_0/page/94 94–95]|url-access=registration}}</ref> However, as ''Chip 'n Dale'' was being launched, Disney was in the process of purchasing Los Angeles [[independent station]] KHJ-TV from [[RKO General]]. Through Buena Vista Television, Disney opted to reclaim the Los Angeles broadcast rights for ''DuckTales'' and moved it from KTTV to be paired with ''Chip 'n Dale'' on its newly purchased station, which was renamed [[KCAL-TV]] in December 1989. Furious at the [[breach of contract]], Diller pulled ''DuckTales'' from all of Fox's other owned-and-operated stations in the fall of 1989. Diller also encouraged the network's affiliates to do the same,<ref name="disney">{{cite news|author=Michael Cieply|date=February 22, 1990|title=Disney, Fox Clash Over Children's TV Programming|newspaper=Los Angeles Times|url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1990-02-22-fi-1569-story.html|access-date=May 11, 2011}}</ref> though most did not initially. This caused the retaliatory formation of [[Fox Kids]].<ref name="sf"/> (Ironically, most of the assets of Fox Kids would be bought by Disney in 2001 via their acquisition of [[ABC Family Worldwide|Fox Family Worldwide]].)

As the years went on, new shows would be added at the end of the block, with the oldest shows being dropped from the lineup. The 1991–92 season, for instance, saw ''Gummi Bears''<nowiki/>' removal, and ''Darkwing Duck'' being added to the end. After ''DuckTales'', ''Chip 'n Dale'', and ''TaleSpin'' were removed from ''The Disney Afternoon'', they continued to rerun in syndication separately from the block until 1995.

By the fifth season in 1994, the block had removed its original four shows and undergone a makeover, with the primary branding being the block's initials, ''TDA''. At this point, the original idea of shows being added and removed yearly was dropped, as both new and old shows were now stripped all week, or only aired on certain days.<ref name="omd">{{cite web |title=Life is Like a Hurricane: A Brief History of the Disney Afternoon |url=https://ohmy.disney.com/insider/2016/04/24/life-is-like-a-hurricane-a-brief-history-of-the-disney-afternoon/ |website=Oh My Disney |publisher=Disney |access-date=June 29, 2020 |date=24 April 2016}}</ref> The lineup at this point included ''[[Aladdin (animated TV series)|Aladdin]]'', ''[[Goof Troop]]'' and ''[[Darkwing Duck]]'' stripped,<ref name="sf" /> while one daily slot was split between ''The Shnookums and Meat Funny Cartoon Show'' and ''[[Gargoyles (TV series)|Gargoyles]]'', book-ending three days a week of ''[[Bonkers (American TV series)|Bonkers]]''.

[[Disney Channel|Disney Channel]] developed a similar programming block called "Block Party", which premiered on October 2, 1995 (airing concurrently with TDA's sixth season) and was similarly scheduled and stripped with the early Disney Afternoon series of ''Darkwing Duck'', ''TaleSpin'', ''DuckTales'', and ''Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers''.<ref name="October/November 1995"/><ref name="omd" />

=== Disney-Kellogg's Alliance ===
By August 1996, owing to decreasing business in the syndicated children's television market due to new competitors such as the cable networks [[Cartoon Network]] and [[Nickelodeon]], and the new networks [[The WB]] and [[UPN]] with having children's blocks of their own, Buena Vista agreed with the [[Leo Burnett Worldwide|Leo Burnett agency]] to market and distribute a revamped version of the block for the 1997–98 and 1998–99 television seasons. Buena Vista established a partnership with Leo Burnett and [[Kellogg's]]—who had been a major sponsor of The Disney Afternoon—to purchase an amount of dedicated advertising inventory.<ref name=adage-kelloggs>{{cite web|title=Disney Takes Kellogg Clout To Stations|url=https://adage.com/article/news/disney-takes-kellogg-clout-stations/84878|website=Ad Age|date=June 6, 2011|access-date=14 December 2015}}</ref> The new block did not carry any blanket branding, but was referred to internally as the "Disney-Kellogg Alliance."<ref name="upn-disneyblock"/>

With the September 1, 1997, season started, the block dropped ''The Disney Afternoon'' name, a half-hour from the stripped block and the ''Gargoyles'' series. Moving to the [[Disney Channel]] were ''Disney's Aladdin'' and The Lion King's ''Timon & Pumbaa''. ''[[101 Dalmatians: The Series|101 Dalmatians]]'', which was shared with ABC's ''Disney's One Saturday Morning'' (which broadcast their own set of episodes), premiered on the block. ''Mighty Ducks'' and ''Quack Pack'' reruns shared the second slot in a Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesdays through Fridays, split respectively. ''DuckTales'' repeats filled the third half-hour slot, with flexibility for the local station to air it at other times.<ref name=awm>{{cite journal|title=Tooning in the Fall Season|journal=Animation World Magazine|date=September 1997|volume=2|issue=6|url=https://www.awn.com/mag/issue2.6/2.6pages/2.6tooningin.html|access-date=March 30, 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Hontz |first=Jenny |date=1998-01-21 |title=Disney kids to play UPN |url=https://variety.com/1998/tv/news/disney-kids-to-play-upn-1117466892/ |access-date=2022-03-03 |website=Variety |language=en-US}}</ref>

In 1998, Disney reached a deal to program a new children's block for UPN, ''[[Disney's One Too]]'', as a replacement for that network's internal [[UPN Kids]] block. The syndicated block ran until the debut of ''One Too'' on September 6, 1999.<ref name="upn-disneyblock">{{cite news|last1=Hontz|first1=Jenny|title=Disney kids to play UPN|url=https://variety.com/1998/tv/news/disney-kids-to-play-upn-1117466892/|access-date=March 30, 2015|work=Variety|date=January 20, 1998}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|title=It's Show Time!

== International broadcasts ==
In [[Edmonton]], [[Alberta]], Canada, the city's then-independent TV station [[CITV-DT|ITV (now Global Edmonton)]] produced its own version of ''The Disney Afternoon'' over roughly the same period as the American block, but only once per week in a two-hour block on Saturday afternoons, though using the same cartoon lineup as the American weekday block. Apart from the animated introduction, the block did not use any Disney-produced wrapper segments, but instead used locally produced live-action segments between programs with host Mike Sobel.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.globaltvedmonton.com/personalities/Mike+Sobel/766983/story.html|title=Personalities: Mike Sobel|work=GlobalTVEdmonton.com|publisher=[[Shaw Media]]|date=May 26, 2011|access-date=November 19, 2012}}</ref>

In Denmark, [[DR1]] started its version of the block ("Disney Sjov") on October 25, 1991. It aired every Friday night and would consist of two half-hour shows along with two classic cartoons, all within one commercial-free hour. The block ended on December 30, 2022, in favor of locally produced Nordic children's programming.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-11-30 |title=Disney Sjov lukker efter 31 år |url=https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/kultur/disney-sjov-lukker-efter-31-aar |access-date=2022-11-30 |website=DR |language=da-DK}}</ref>
