Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is an American interactive computer-animated children's television series which aired from May 5, 2006, to November 6, 2016 on the Disney Channel. It is Disney Television Animation's first computer-animated series aimed at preschoolers. The series was created by Disney veteran Bobs Gannaway. 126 episodes were produced. After it ended, the show was spun off into Mickey and the Roadster Racers/Mickey Mouse Mixed-Up Adventures and Mickey Mouse Funhouse. It also spawned the short animations called Minnie's Bow-Toons.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) It isn't very faithful to the original Mickey Mouse.
 * 2) *Unlike House of Mouse (which had a different premise but retained the Mickey Mouse film series' comedy, writing, animation, acting, and cameos), this series only has a few of those.
 * 3) The humor is a mixed bag, ranging from fairly amusing to somewhat questionable to downright corny.
 * 4) Many characters from the Mickey Mouse franchise are absent. The only characters from the franchise confirmed to appear are:
 * 5) *Mickey Mouse
 * 6) *Minnie Mouse
 * 7) *Donald Duck
 * 8) *Daisy Duck
 * 9) *Chip and Dale
 * 10) *Pete
 * 11) *Professor Von Drake
 * 12) *Goofy
 * 13) *Clarabelle
 * 14) **Speaking of them, they will often ask the audience unnecessary and pointless questions.
 * 15) The way the episodes are structured can get repetitive to some viewers after a while.
 * 16) Most of the songs are just the characters rhythmically talking, which can't even be considered songs at all, except for the theme song and the Hot Dog song.
 * 17) This show may have misled some people into thinking that Mickey Mouse is only for younger children, which is totally not true, especially considering he was created almost an entire century ago as of now.
 * 18) Overly simple plotlines.
 * 19) Mediocre CGI animation in Season 1 that looks like a PlayStation 3, Nintendo DS, Nintendo GameCube, or Xbox 360 game.
 * 20) Unsophisticated, simplistic, uncreative, cringeworthy, and generic bubblegum songs like "the Hot Dog Song", the theme song, "Shake Your Peanut", "Choo-Choo Boogie", and "Rock 'n Ride 'n Rally".
 * 21) Some of the problems Mickey and his friends encounter are minor and aren't even a big deal.
 * 22) Many of the episode plots are stupid. The series also had lots of sci-fi and supernatural plotlines that don't fit within the Mickey Mouse universe.

Good Qualities

 * 1) Fantastic voice acting, to the point where it seems like they are all having fun with their respective characters. Highlights include Wayne Allwine, Tony Anselmo, Russi Taylor, Bill Farmer, Tress MacNeille, Rob Paulsen and many others.
 * 2) *The show properly utilizes the talents of Wayne Allwine, as Allwine had recorded enough dialogue for season three before his 2009 death.
 * 3) Daisy Duck was massively redeemed in the show after being previously flanderized in Mickey Mouse Works, Disney's House of Mouse, and Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas and got her old personality back.
 * 4) The Sensational Six (the main clique of the show) still have their relatable and diverse personalities. We have the optimistic leader Mickey, his girlfriend Minnie, the sassy Daisy, the short-tempered Donald, the bumbling Goofy, and the loyal yet easily jealous Pluto.
 * 5) The soundtrack is great and a major highlight.
 * 6) *Depending on your view, the songs can be nostalgic.
 * 7) It subverts some preschool show clichés by having a three-dimensional villain in the form of Pete. In fact, he's actually more of an anti-hero, since he makes friends with the Sensational Six from time to time.
 * 8) It teaches young children about shapes, colors, numbers, social skills, etc.
 * 9) Some parental bonuses and Disney references, such as when Mortimer appeared in some episodes and the clubhouse turning black-and-white in "Mickey's Color Adventure".
