How many times has your friendship group had a nostalgic fangirl moment over how incredible and ICONIQUE Disney Channel used to be? Probably too many times.
We miss the good ole’ days when Sharpay Evans was the ultimate GOALS of fabulosity and when we would squeal with excitement when Miley’s Hannah Montana closet came on screen, (we are still not over that revolving shoe rack!).
Then there was the triumphant moment when Lizzie McQuire sang a duet of What Dreams Are Made Off with a clone of herself, after she kicked her crush off the stage. An ultimate girl power moment.
So, in an effort to escape our adult life and become young again, let’s take a trip down memory lane and remember those good times. Here are 11 of the best Disney shows of all time...
The best OG Disney Shows
1 of 11Wizards of Waverly place (2007 - 2012)
This is actually Disney's longest running live action show. It launched the career of the most followed person on Instagram and Justin Bieber's on-and-off GF, Selena Gomez. The show was truly a classic.
2 of 11Even Stevens (2000 - 2003)
Even Stevens gave us Shia LaBeouf (we are very grateful for that) and it's one of the OG Disney shows of a millennial's childhood. It ran for three seasons, earned its own movie in 2003…
3 of 11Lilo and Stitch (2003 - 2006)
The films were adorable and great, then the shows made us fall in love with Lilo and Stitch even more. Honestly, they were friendship goals! They also taught us that O'hana means family.
4 of 11Lizzie McGuire (2001 - 2004)
Let's face it, Hillary Duff was our childhood. The show is the most critically acclaimed show Disney has ever produced. It earned itself a movie even though the show was on air for two seasons. We bet you, you always wanted your own version of cartoon Lizzie, because we did.
5 of 11Recess (1997 - 2001)
It had everything you could possibly need in a show. It was literally the kids version of Friends and we spent our childhood's wishing we were cool enough to be an Ashley.
6 of 11The Proud Family (2001 - 2005)
The Proud Family was one of the best cartoons that Disney Channel ever produced because it was hilarious and chaotic. It was a family that we all wanted to be a part of at some point in our lives. Also, the sassy grandma was the BOMB DOT COM!
7 of 11That’s so Raven (2003 - 2007)
Everyone's favourite sassy psychic and her crazy family and friends never failed to put a smile on our face. The theme song was a classic and you can't hide from the fact that you know every word.
8 of 11The Suite Life of Zack and Cody (2005-2008) and Suite Life on Deck (2008-2011)
Honestly, truly. A CLASSIC. Everyone was in love with these twins and they will go down in history as one of the best TV duo ever.From causing havoc at the Tipton Hotel to causing even more drama on the deck, the show was so entertaining and it gave us ICONIC episodes like That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana - cause let's be honest crossover episodes were the highlight of any show!
9 of 11Kim Possible (2002 - 2007)
We literally miss everything about this show, when Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable came together then anything and everything is possible. The show was filled with a mixture of the weirdest things, mole rats who could talk, Fiery Nachos who wanted to take over the world and how can we forget when Kim and Ron got together… that's still weird.
10 of 11Hannah Montana (2006 - 2011)
Like it doesn't need an intro…The show was arguably the most successful Disney original ever. The show had four incredible seasons, four albums which became the soundtracks of our childhood, two world tours, a film and it launched the career of Miley Cyrus. Without Hannah Montana, we wouldn't have the gift of Miley Cyrus swinging on a big metal ball and licking hammers.
11 of 11Phineas and Ferb (2007 - 2015)
They're the adorable and hilarious. With only 104 days in the summer, Phineas and Ferb made every day count. Their sister Candace, voiced by Ashley Tisdale, is always trying to tan and live her life but her brothers' antics and her boy drama is getting in the way (so, relatable).
