Am I the only one who didn't watch 2000s Disney Channel as much as most other people did?
When it came to the channel, I did watch House of Mouse and the shows on Weekday Mornings and Early Afternoons. However, other than that, I only watched the channel ocassionally and even though I remember watching shows like Recess a lot, I remember watching them more on Toon Disney than Disney Channel.
For the most part (Aside from House of Mouse and times I would ocassionally watch the other shows on the channel), I mostly just watched the network for the Weekday Morning and Early Afternoon portion of the network. To me, when I think of Old School Disney Channel, I think of the following shows.
Bear in the Big Blue House
The Book of Pooh
Madeline
The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Out of the Box
PB&J Otter
Rolie Polie Olie
Stanley

No, not really. A lot of people disliked it for the influx of sitcoms at the expense of cartoons.
And most of the cartoons they had were pretty mediocre. I had little use for The Replacements or Emperor's New School, then or now.
The 2000s seemed to be a pretty forgettable decade for the Disney Channel. I was mostly watching CN during this decade, and only tuning into Nick once in a while.
Kim Possible and Phineas & Ferb were the big winners during that decade. I haven't watched House of Mouse, so I don't know how that turned out.
The rest of the channel was tainted by its attempts to be MTV Lite. They signed on a bunch of disposable child stars with music contracts and gave them terrible sitcoms and DCOMs. Add to that the decaying reign of Michael Eisner's awful ideas for the company as a whole and DC's sister channels being leagues better, and you have a channel that is mostly just gathering dust.
