  • I MISS THIS SO MUCH........Disney sucks ass now

  • omg!! i remember this! wtf happened to disney?

  • Seeing this makes me so nostalgic for all the original movies Disney made back in the day, like Halloweentown and Zenon and Smart House. You know, before High School Musical.

    I miss my childhood...

  • The graphics.. are AMAZING!<3

  • I miss Zoog Disney soooo bad! Disney has really taken a huge downfall in the last decade!!! If only we could all go back and for those who didn't live it I really wish they could see what Disney Channel used to be.

  • my childhood -sighs-

  • I miss this!

  • @peaches ikea that's what made me want too look it up

  • i remember how cool it was when they turned into teenage zoogs.

  • im so old

  • oh & johnny tsunami!

  • =[ i want to go back sooo bad and watch bug juice, so wierd, and all the cool movies they would play everyday at 2 like brink and smart house and stepsister from planet wierd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yeah once disney and nick went to making shows all about kids singing, it all went down hill from there, i think disney failed right after the 2000's came along =[

  • WOW, this is fucking old. I remember this, but it was so long ago. Wow this is so nostalgic. And I'm loving all of these nostalgic videos on the side as well --> :D

  • how old is this ? :-O omg old disney :'(

  • Oh my gosh I remember every single word! Good times, good times.

  • the good ol days

  • I can barely remember my last boyfriend's birthday, but I know Joe Zoog's rap by heart. I'm embarrassed to know myself.

  • They should bring back Zoog Disney for a week and they could call it "Zoog Disney week on the Disney Channel".

    Then they could show all those great shows that they would show when Zoog was still on like Recess, Rugrats, Lizzie McGuire & other nostalgic shows!

  • @johnson1095 Rugrats was never on Disney Channel.

  • Bro............I REMEMBER This, i Had To Have Been Like 7

  • how old is this, im 14 so ive never seen it... what is it about anyway???

  • @keFUNKNEY101 It was just a block on Disney Channel aimed towards kids. Just like Disney Junior is aimed towards preschoolers. You know Playhouse Disney (now Disney Junior) and how they had those two monkeys that you always saw in between shows and such, so they were the host. Well the zoogs (the robot things) were just the hosts for that block and you would always see them.

  • @TheCrazyCoasterKid I thought that computer viruses were Zoogs.

  • @keFUNKNEY101

    It wasn't a TV show so much as a bloc of programs (shows like So Weird, Bug Juice, etc.) with Zoog Disney stuff interspersed during commercial breaks and between shows. For example, during a commercial break, they might show high scores from the games section, viewer emails and chats, internet content, etc.

  • Zoog Disney was great. My brother was a bigger fan of it than me but I have so many homemade VHS tapes around the house that my mom made taping those 90's movie classics (Homeward Bound if you talk 90's specifically). We lost the Leave it to Beaver movie unfortunately. Disney in my opinion was still good in the early 2000's but after that it SUCKED, AND STILL DOES.

  • 0:12 dose the guy have 3 legs or just showing a pen**

  • 0:05 Disney just wants to turn teens and kids into robots

  • aaah!! This reminds me of lit pumpkins and the smell of halloween cookies, getting the pillow case ready to trick or treat with and coming home to watch zoog disney while trading candies with everyone haha! Man I loved my childhood! ;)

  • this was the freaking best. this was my late teen and college years lol. there were tons of college students who were just watching this back in the day

  • Lol that's cute that they thought them having an interactive website was a nice touch. Now it's a must have

  • Zoog Disney was lame as hell.

  • a place where no "musicals" exist and where acting was at least believable!! i miss the zeether!!

  • THE ZEETHER~~~~~ T_____T my childhood~~!!

  • The folks at Disney should have changed Disney Channel's name to Zoog, because not only is there nothing Disney-related on the channel now (well, except Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on Disney Junior), they completely decided not to celebrate their 25th Anniversary three years ago.

  • worst into ever.

  • @WCBguy1 WTF do you mean the "worst?!!"

  • @marylandman12 yeah, i mean it looks like PBS Kids for babies.

  • @WCBguy1 Oh just shut the fuck up. Why are you even here then asshole?

  • @wwe2dragon Well I thought it was going to be a GOOD INTRO but it looks like PBS kids. And first of all it's my opinion asshole. I think it's bad and you can not change my opinion.

  • When Disney CHannel was actually GOOD

  • HA! I just noticed this ad was to keep kids inside and watch tv. Overweight nation much?

    Lol. But I love the commercial anyway. Nostalgia for the sake of health right?

  • @sheldons7 how?

  • @Winxin864

    It was saturday. People should be ooutside on a day of no school or work

  • @sheldons7 It's only Saturday morning cartoons...nobody will keep their eyes glazed to TV screen 12 hours a day. "Now that's just silly" - Mad Hatter

  • this must have been when Disney was for kids and not for tweeny annoyances

  • I remember them playing Blue (Da Ba Dee)

  • Jeff Corwin was Disney's answer to Steve Irwin and PBS' Kratt Brothers and Z Games was a kid-friendly & less radical X Games. The Famous Jett Jackson was only memorable for the theme song, honestly. The Jersey was the only actually unique show and it was, IMO, medicore. The best thing during this era of Disney was the late-night Vault block, because that showed the classics.

  • @TherealRNO

    Thank you. Even as a kid, I thought ZOOG Disney was lame as hell. The Jersey was dumb, Famous Jett Jackson was boring, and Bug Juice was just stupid, watching a bunch of kids at camp? In the late 90s, that's when Disney began to suck. Before than it was what it should have stayed, a CARTOON channel, they had shows like Goof Troop, Darkwing Duck, DuckTales, Bonkers, etc. I say screw Zoog Disney.

  • "Bug Juice was just stupid" Salute Your Shorts from Classic NIck, much? Except that SYS was watchable, because some of the kids (Sponge) were geeks, others were big ex-bullies with hearts of gold (Donkey Lips), others were snobby preps (the lead girl, whom most the guys crushed on), two other guys were troublemakers (they even messed up the theme song, "Camp Anawana, we hold you in our hearts...It makes me wanna fart"), et al. Bug Juice was bland by comparison.

  • @TherealRNO

    Never cared much for SYS, but I will say it was a little better.

  • Well, Disney didn't JUST air The Disney Afternoon (those shows mentioned) 24/7. It also aired kid's shows like Welcome to Pooh Corner, Dumbo's Circus, The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Babysitter's Club (based on the book series), live-action (most of which would go under the "Vault Disney" banner once the Z00Gs took over the regular airtime), the classic shorts (ex: Donald Duck Presents gave Donald his own theme ["Who's got the sweetest disposition? One guess. Guess who?"]), et al.

  • @TherealRNO

    Yes but even then most of channel, pre-zoog, was made up of cartoons. Once Zoog came along it was just lame.

  • @Nastradumas: And Nick and CN followed suit, sadly.

  • @TherealRNO

    to be fair, CN is getting better, they just need to just get rid of all their live-action shows and it'll be even better.

  • Really, this block was limited at best. Bug Juice was, IMO, Disney's answer to classic camp stuff like Nick's Salute Your Shorts, Hillary Duff--as Lizze McGuire--was basically a more likable precursor to Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus, Raven Symone (formerly best known as one of the Cosby kids) was a precursor to current stuff like Nick's TruJackson VP, So Weird was Disney's equivalent to Goosebumps by R.L. Stine, and the Z00Gs were wrap-around characters who filled in space.

  • @TherealRNO

    When Disney thought it was ok to cater a channel to teens, that where everything went to hell. And you're right, it was very limited, it barely had variety for God's sakes, it barely had cartoons.

  • @Nastradumas: But by today's standards, even Z00G Disney would be welcome, as the tween shows dominate, with barely a classic found. The only good series' now are Phineas & Ferb--for the imaginative aspects of it--and IMO, Jimmy Two-Shoes, which basically would be what Casper, Wendy, and Hot Spot (from Harvey Comics) would be if Casper were a living dumb blond boy, Wendy turned 180 as a crazed hellion with a crush on the title hero, & Hot Spot as a fat, lazy sidekick.

  • BRING BACK "SO WEIRD"!!!

  • I used to have the toy zoog. Good ole days when "Jeff Corwin" used to come on right after school.

  • dude i remember this sooooooooo well. this was back when the internet was a new thing. like it was i privlage to use the internet. and now its jaded and boring. I wonder how long it took for pornography to outnumber every other kind of site.

  • I was born in the VERY late 90s so I don't remember this

  • I was watching the other me the other day and the girl that the boy liked had the most annoying voice ever....there's always a really annoying voice and a missing parent in one disney movie!

  • I like how the characters look but I HATE the character redesigns from before Zoog ended.

  • Comment removed

  • SO WEIRD WAS M Y FAVORITe

    whenever i talk about it no one knows what im talking about

  • We 90's babies had it made...best decade ever for kids who grew up then!

  • @SuprDeLiCiOuS agreed.

  • if you don't remember this, you slept through your childhood.

  • omggg i misss thiss and Vault!!

  • oh i wish there was time-traveler i would defiently would go back to the 90s early 2000s

  • i remember zoog disney it was so awesome i also remember Disney one Saturday morning sometimes i wish i could turn back time to early 90's to get more of classic Disney

  • is it bad that I still know all the words to that song?

  • one of the reasons why my childhood was so amazing :) im glad i was a kid during the  90s and not during this shit they play today on tv.

  • I can't believe people actually liked this crap. With the exception of a few show, Zoog Disney was lame, in fact, it's one of the reasons why Disney Channel is the way it is now.

  • @Nastradumas: Exactly. The ONLY good thing was the variety in the shows, whereas now, it's the same old garbage basically done to milk tween stars for all they're worth In fact, Disney itself agrees with this, as the chairman now--Anne Sweeney--has been quoted in saying, "Disney Channel is not about entertainment, it's about making the company money", which goes against the very vision of creator, Walt Disney, who said, "I make money to create quality, not create quality to make money".

  • @TherealRNO

    So true.

  • I think we need like a petition to put these channels back on the air or on some kind of network where we can watch them.

  • That almost made me cry with nostalgia. I remember when they had changed the Zoogs at one point and I was outraged, but after they left I just gave up on Disney.

  • I miss Zoog Disney.

  • Wow! I must admit that I cannot remember Zoog Disney because I have not watch it for about 10 years, but I still always remember some old disney shows! I miss Zoog Disney. I watched it a lot when I was teenager. I would love to bring it back on TV soon. "Off the Wall" and "Mad Lids" are my favorite shows on disney.

  • God, I feel old.

  • i miss this

  • wow i remember this looking way more high tech looking

  • I feel like this ZOOG theme is a strange parody of ZOOM.

  • The 2000s were good through 2003 then the world kinda started sucking. Phil of the future was the last chance for a comeback (It kinda had an even steven's feel or maybe because it didn't have a laaaaaammme laugh track) But for some reason, Raven won out and that show made way for Hannah Montanna etc. I dunno maybe i'm wrong.

  • >=(>=(>=(>=(>=(>=(>=(>=( To Disney XD!

  • And then, this is completely something else but, then there was the old Adult Swim and the old Toonami, now that shit was awesome. I miss the old days.

  • All I can say is, those were the days. Lol. Although I do prefer the old Nickelodeon days 'cause old Disney didn't really have good shows, I only liked So Weird and then later on, way later, they used to give Boy Meets World which was AWESOME.

  • i remember the end of this era cuz i finally got cable after 9/11 when we didnt have reception anymore

  • I like this bette than the "disney xd"

    I wish i wasnt a toddler when this was out v_v

  • trippy

  • Yeah I wish I could go back doin those shows...man they should make a channel one of disney & nickoleon except they have old shows around the 90s to early 2000s

  • MY CHILDHOOD.

    somebody pleeese take me back to the zeether.

  • Comment removed

  • Zoog Disney Must Return As A New Channel!

  • @jasongunning2468 seriously disney needs to make a new channel that has their old shows on it!

  • zoog disney was the SHIT.. how i miss it.

  • @IlikepurpleXP Me too. I wish they'd bring it back.

  • AW HELL YEAH. Damn, I miss this.

  • 4 People Are Viacom! Disney Is Better Than Viacom!

  • zoogina was my fav. you know im watching all these "remember the old disney channel" videos but not one of them mentioned "Mr. Headmisstress"

    anyway, i totally agree with all of you about the old disney shows. i thoguht i was the only one who felt that way.

  • I miss this so much that I think I may cry. My childhood just flashed before my eyes.

  • I REMEMBER BEING A ZOOG!!!!! :D

  • 4 people didn't appreciate good t.v :/

  • wow this brings back memories... :')

  • OMGROFL!! YOU GOT ZOOG ROLL'D!!

  • I'm getting really sick of all these comments from people complaining about how much they hate Disney Channel nowadays. The only reason people say that Disney Channel sucks nowdays is because they're being blinded by nostalgia. Face it. You've all grown up. You're not kids anymore. I respect the fact that you all miss the old Disney Channel and wish that you could be kids again, but stop comparing the new to the old and saying that the old is better and the new sucks ass.

    To Be Continued...

  • Continuing from my last comment.

    And before you start flaming me saying things like "You're wrong. Disney Channel sucks now. It was WAY better in the old days.", watch this video:

    watch?v=mou_nGfNj5M

    And if you still continue to complain about the new Disney Channel, well, it'll just go to show you that no one can except change.

  • @BetaForTheWin stfu it WAS better back then period

  • @pinkprincess1588 Well excuse me, Mr. Nostalgia-Fanboy-Who-Can't-Acc­ept-Change! Have you even watched the video? Just copy and paste watch?v=mou_nGfNj5M into the address bar and you're good to go. If you have watched the video, watch the other videos in the series. That's right. The video I want you to watch is part of a video series. There's 9 parts in all. I suggest you watch all of them. The videos will show you that TV in the 90's isn't as great as you think it is.

  • @BetaForTheWin No, because the new Disney Channel SUCKS without nostalgia. It's the audience being brainwashed by it, not enjoying it naturally like we did. STFU!

  • @BetaForTheWin (looking at your user name) Oh, it's you. One of the morons who likes crappy beta designs. Fuck you.

  • does anyone know where or what the name of the dcom bumper from like the late 90s or early 2000s when disney still had that old logo?

  • man u do not know how much i wanna go back in time and experience this ALL OVER again and i still love disney and all but they REALLY need 2 put these shows on disney xd and u know what's weird all our childhood life ALL we ever wanted was 2 b grown ups and now that we finally r grown ups EVERYTHING changed and it's not just disney tv in general isn't the same anymore same thing with nickelodeon and now we're saying we wanna b kids again UGHH Y STUPID DUMB WORLD Y?

  • I cant even image its been that long, I miss old disney:

  • c this wat remember wen i was lil dis is wats up

  • Man I missss this. The new disney is the biggest pile of shit with a bunch of the same stupid rip-off shows and crappy acting. I always remember going on the zoog disney website and I was obsessed with it :P

  • Haha this song itself is by far better than the crap that they do now with the stars making the Disney logo with a lightsaber.

  • Remember when the Zoogs were updated to be hip and cooler looking? That pissed me and my brother off so much. It was the first sign of the horrible things to come.

  • You Can Blame Disney and Anne Sweeney, she made disney gay!! even playhouse disney is near death, theyll re name it disney junior and put it on digital cable. Disney Channel 1983-2004;2012(for playhouse disney)

  • @TheSHEERHEARTATTACK Disney Channel died in 2006.And Disney actually needed Playhouse on another channel

  • I know i miss the old disney too

  • i remember being mad when they started doing these and now i am missing it. it is so much better then the shit they have now

  • after this was gone, the disney channel went to crap town

  • Wow... Haha yeah, I remember this. Thanks for sharing!

    Last summer I found a VHS tape and put it in, and to my surprise it was hours of Lizzie McGuire episodes! Very awesome throwback to my childhood, lol.

  • crap i wanna cry now so many memories!!!

  • I know this is good memories for a lot of you, but this was the beginning of the end for me. I miss Vault Disney.

  • i miss this i was like 5 and me and my bro fighted over the tv it was zoog or nick (i won)

  • they should do the same thing with disney now disney listen to this im saving you you should make a vault disney channel and put nothing but classic 90s/early 00s shows cartoons promos even zoog things on this channel it would be like CN and Boomarang the crappy disney for all the new tweens and the good ol disney for US the fans of old school good programing think about it disney

  • i remember wanting an internet connection soooo bad as a kid just to go to the website hahah. but i agree, this was the last time disney channel was ever any good.

  • does anyone remember Quack Attack and Katie and orbie

  • I miss that! "Wow, television on the computer! When will cars start to fly?"

  • i love this song

  • Haha, I totally used to try to find this video online. Thanks so much for posting it! Man the memories. Including the word "connectionage".

  • Like this comment if you remember the "The Jersey" or "So Weird"!!!! :D

  • @mermaidgirl9595 ill like it regardless, so stop asking for pity votes

  • @ymistillavirgin I'M A CONFORMIST WHO ASKS FOR VOTES!!! AAAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Yes.

  • @mermaidgirl9595 that was my childhood LOL. And famous jett jackson XDD

  • @mermaidgirl9595 Remember Jersey? That was one of my favorite shows as a kid!

  • When i was like 5, i somehow managed to program our cable box back in like 1998 to where when it was 10:30am, it would turn on to disney channel every morning. Even the cable company couldnt figure out the password. Everytime it was 10:30, my dad got prepared for the madness...

  • I dont remember DC being called zoog, but I did apparently watch it back then because I was born in 1997. I remember Lizzie McGuire, Kim Possible, etc.

  • these zoogs look like the guys from futurama

  • i miss the old disney, watching Zorro at night, and the original mickey mouse club, and madeline, rolie polie ollie, So Weird, Lizzie McGwire.

    Now Disney SUCKS

  • Wow, looking back, this is kind of annoying.

  • @BluWolf1988: THIS heralded what we have NOW, because although the block had a variety--the ONLY good thing about it, really--it was primarily shows aimed at teens. Vault Disney was the sole exception for those of us born prior to the Z00G era.

  • @ash9445 Yeah, I used to watch that show around when I was 4 when I first got Disney Channel in 1995.

  • Man like everyone else i miss this DISNEY!!! They should have like a day where they just bring this ZOOG DISNEY and the shows back and see how many viewers they get. I bet it would be like a whole lot!! if they do then can replay some of this old ZOOG DISNEY stuff again!! Cartoon network has a channel for their old shows BOOMERANG!!!! why not DISNEY!!!!

  • omg this was disney when i was lilttle i am 19 now i still watch disney but now it is crap i mean really what is wrong with you guys. BRING BACK THE OLD DISNEY.

  • honestly, i thought zoog was a bit annoying, but the shows were definitely better during this period

  • Wow these were days when I looked up to Disney now half of them are busy sending nude photos and other wrong stuff for kids!

  • deja vu...omgosh!!! crazy miss this

  • when about was this???

  • Probably the last years I watched Disney Channel regularly was when Zoog Disney was out.

  • aww i miss this!

  • WHOAH blast from the past!!

  • R.I.P Good Disney Channel

    198(1 or 3)-200(4,5 or 6)

  • damn i miss this this is real disney i like how they were later made all cool looking

  • Disney has never been as great since Zoog Disney. Remember So Weird??

  • OH EM GEE i miss zoog disney so much this reminds me of my childhood and comming home from school and doing homework and watching disney. gosh they need to bring old tv back. all i need is Boomerang and old disney!

  • What's on Disney now is made for all little kids. Zoog disney WAS for everyone. I know it was marketed towards teens and preteens but I remember being 6 and LOVING Zoog disney. It gave me kids who I thought I could look up to. I watched Playhouse Disney in the morning and Zoog during the rest of the day.

  • yeah same here

  • really

  • "The channel also ceased producing drama and reality series, shifting focus to live-action comedies and animated series" ...

  • that was the first website i ever visited, and i loved watching so weird <3

  • OMG.

    I miss this sooo much!!

    Bring the old Disney back!!!

  • I remember this as a kid! I didn't think anything of it then, but now I love it and miss it! When I was a kid we had this and watched cartoons, now they watch hannah montana, and wizards, why dont they wanna watch cartoons!!

    1990s>2000s

  • R.I.P. Disney lived from 1984-2004 will be missed 4eva lol!

  • I'm pissed that this don't come on anymore new disney sucks I want old Disney back
