I think it's important we only cover the Disney Afternoon in the timeline, in the article it states that it lasted only 8 seasons but in the timeline you clearly use Disney's One Saturday Morning for the last few seasons. If no one objects to this I'm going to chop it down so the timeline only features shows that were part of The Disney Afternoon.-Deathawk 23:36, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

I agree, and I'm removing the later material, putting it here. It probably best belongs in other articles, like that for Disney's One Saturday Morning. It is being placed here in case someone wants to move it there later. Skybunny 16:37, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

More recently, the Disney Afternoon was altered and aired on the Disney Channel. The tagline was "Animate afternoons your way!".

[edit] What Channels?

This article doesn't seem to very well specify exactly what channels The Disney Afternoon aired on. I remember watching on either ABC or CBS, but was it on both? This was around 1991 and I didn't have the Disney Channel, so I'm sure that wasn't it. I had a similar problem with the TailSpin article in that it vaguely explained the channels it aired on. Any improvements on this would be appreciated. Cale 03:18, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

The Disney Afternoon and the shows that were a part of it were syndicated, meaning they weren't bought by networks, they were bought by individual affiliates. So it may have aired on ABC in one city and on NBC in another, and it could move around from station to station or disappear depending on which affiliate(s) wanted it. (In my own city the WB aired it and before that Fox, and it may have even been on other stations before that.) Is this something that should be explained in the main article?--Calluna (talk) 23:31, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
