About
Quick guide
The Wonderful World of Disney is a long‑running anthology series that brings Disney’s classic and new movies, shorts, and specials to prime‑time TV.
Premiering in 1954 as Walt Disney’s Disneyland, the series has been rebroadcast and renamed several times. In 1997, after Disney bought ABC, the show returned under the current title and aired a mix of theatrical releases, TV movies, and original shorts. Episodes are family‑friendly, with a mix of animation and live‑action, and often include behind‑the‑scenes or historical segments.
