I remember seeing this cartoon when I was anywhere from five to seven years old (2008–2010). I remember seeing it on Playhouse Disney before it got rebranded to Disney Junior in 2011. The cartoon wasn’t a full-on series like other shows on Playhouse. Instead, it was a series of shorts that aired between shows on the channel. The cartoons centered around this group of anthropomorphic animals that sang songs. I can’t remember any of the lyrics from the songs and vaguely remember the rhythm from one of them. I don’t remember any of the characters’ names, but I do remember what some of them looked like. The ones I remember were an orange dog with black eyes (he was the lead singer), a blue pig (or some other kind of animal having a pig-like snout) with long hair, and a pink/purple female cat. I also remember that in one of the songs they made a reference to The Beatles by showing them walking across Abbey Road like the Beatles did. Furthermore, in that same song they were singing a song that was making the blue pig character nervous/flustered/irritated (I can’t really remember what it was about).
That’s about all I can remember. I tried looking for this cartoon a couple months back but nothing I found matched the description above. Let me know what you find. Good luck!
Hi! I don't know if this is actually "lost" but I literally cannot find footage of the American Playhouse Disney shutdown/Disney Junior initial sign on anywhere. This is something I assume has to be recorded somewhere, but it's nowhere to be seen on YouTube (possibly due to copyright reasons?) I hope someone has a copy of this!
I was born in 1992. I feel like was still watching these shows made for preschoolers at 11 years old.
Maybe that was normal back then, today it doesn’t seem to be.
Comment the year you were born and the age you stopped watching these preschools shows. I’m just curious honestly.
Does anyone remember the 3 episodes from season one of Out of the Box (Treasures, The Gift, and Let’s Eat Out)? They were dropped from broadcast in about May 1999, after being in rotation for only about 6 months.
I watched OOTB not too long after it premiered, and distinctly remember an episode similar to Revealing Feelings (the one without Tony) where Vivian was absent. What I remember most from it was the goodbye song, which Tony performs solo. I remember really missing Vivian during it. I don’t know why they didn’t have the kids stay for it like in Revealing Feelings. I was shocked to learn this episode hadn’t been broadcast since I was 4, since it was one that always stood out to me.
Aside from that, I don’t remember the missing 3. We taped some episodes back in late 1998-early 1999, but all those recordings are gone save for one of “Box Full of Boxes”. And the supposedly complete release on Disney+ is missing them. But they definitely existed, there are old TV schedules on NewspaperArchive.com that supposedly list them. So I’m curious if anyone else remembers them at all.
I noticed that a bunch of playhouse disney shows are streaming outside of disney plus so wanted to share a list for those wanting to watch these...

Just for backstory, Ooh and Aah were two monkey puppets who starred on Playhouse Disney, with their stardom starting in 2005 with their own short series, "Ooh, Aah And You" that premiered on Playhouse Disney's "Mini Show & Tell Time". Up until Playhouse Disney's rebrand in 2007, "Ooh, Aah And You" was the first show that aired on the channel each day. When Playhouse Disney's reboot announcement was announced in late 2006, they chose Ooh and Aah to be the channel's new mascots. Ooh and Aah finally became the mascots of Playhouse Disney on March 31, 2007. They were the mascots up until the channel's closure in 2011.
Over the years, Ooh and Aah produced bumpers and most of them have gone lost over the years. Ever since I was about 7-8, I've been on a mission to find all the rarest Ooh and Aah bumpers. Even though, there's got to be at least a truckload out there, only a handful have been seen on the internet. I need a little help finding the lost bumpers. It can be bumpers you found on any commercial breaks that you have on any VHS's, bumpers in different languages, incomplete bumpers, pictures of lost bumpers, it does not matter. Any finds, post them in the comments bellow,
This memory has been bugging me and I'm not sure if it's even real at this point, but might as well give it a shot.
I remember there being a green one, blue, red and pink. Maybe a yellow/orange one but my memory is fuzzy.
The green one was a T-Rex and he was the leader, I THINK he may have been a bulldozer. While the blue one was a gorilla. Not sure what the rest were, but the pink one was a girl. The T-Rex's name was Rex, and they all have transformation sequences when turning into their "tool forms".
Not sure if anyone will remember what I’m talking about, but back in the day, there was a show called Bunnytown on Playhouse Disney. It wasn’t as big a hit as Disney was hoping and only aired one season, and I’m pretty sure the entire series is available on DVD or elsewhere online.
Anyways, leading up to the series premiere (November of 2007 so this was early 2007) Disney had a little promotional series of “spot the bunny” popups in the other Playhouse Disney shows at the time. If you remember those Jimmy Neutron segments over on Nick where Jimmy would hijack different shows, it was that, but on a much smaller scale. I specifically remember seeing a bunny pop out of a hole in the ground behind a tree in the background of a show (I wanna say it was Handy Manny?), look around, and disappear back into the hole. Just little things like that, nothing big.
I tried the Wayback but the only capture in late 2007 is in September, and apparently my browser isn’t compatible with the version of Flash needed to view it. There were games on the website at the time (one where you scooped ice cream in Bunnytown’s parlor, one where you were in an art studio I think?) which are documented online but I can’t remember if these segments were mentioned at all on the site. I do know that there were a lot of ad spots mentioning this event (again I think it was called “spot the bunny”) and hyping up the show. I think this event went for a week but I could be wrong. I just wanna see one of the popup bunnies, one of the ads mentioning it, something to prove that this did happen so I know I’m not going crazy lol! Does anyone else remember this or am I losing my mind?
I absolutely don’t know what the premise of the show is about, but I remember watching it a couple of times when I was a wee young kid. I think it was about a humanoid and it’s tiny assistant and both were colored grey-ish and sorta robotic. Every episode from what I can recall is basically all about traveling to large planet-sized satellites and then I think they’d explore it. They also don’t talk. To travel they use this elevator thingy that makes them levitate to their destination, if you get my meaning. It’s a 3D animation. Been pondering what this show is when me and a buddy would reminisce childhood shows but neither of us could recall.
I posted about this on the lost media forums last night, but I want to crosspost to as many places as possible in case anyone knows what this song is, as it's been haunting me for most of my life.
tl;dr: A song from a bumper on Playhouse Disney has haunted me since I was in elementary school and I'm hoping someone can identify it based on the only deep-fried audio sample I have left of it.
Context: around 2005 or 2006, I first saw this bumper air during a commercial break in the early morning on the Disney channel, when it was still the Playhouse Disney block. It seemed to be some sort of showcase of songs in different languages, and it featured a man and woman playing guitar and singing to a group of children who soon joined in. I've never been able to identify the language or any of the words they're using. Phonetically, I've always sang it as 'ay-dili-dili-dili-oleyo'.
The first time I heard it, it immediately got stuck in my head. I eagerly watched TV every morning I wasn't in school from then on, hoping to hear the song again. Back then I didn't have internet at home, so there was no way for me to research this song even if I'd known what to try looking for. So, I waited. And then one morning, right as I was waking up for school, I heard it. I leapt out of bed, grabbed my phone, and recorded a chunk of the song in a voice memo. For a very long time, that voice memo was the only proof I had that the song ever existed at all.
But as the years went on, I lost that too. Obviously being so long ago, the phone it was recorded on is long gone. At one point I had emailed the file to myself for posterity, but that's gone now too.
The only piece of this song I have left is some absolutely terrible audio from a Youtube video that's almost as old as this entire story. I liked this song so much that I set the recording of it as my ringtone. One day, while at my friend's house, we recorded a silly random video and uploaded it to Youtube, as kids do. At one point during the video, my phone rang--thus capturing a brief snippet of the song in even worse quality than the original voice memo.
In the link below are two audio samples: one raw sample from the video where the ringtone plays in the background while my friend and I talk over it, and one where I've done my best to remove our voices. It isn't a nice neat job at all, just the best I could do in Audacity with absolutely no audio engineering knowledge, but maybe it'll be enough to help som
