There has been an increase in bringing back shows recently for a number of reasons, but the main one? Nostalgia. We love looking back at the things we used to watch as kids and reminisce about that fun and simple time of our lives. One of the best kids channels to look back on is the Disney Channel. The Disney Channel was created in 1983 and later became simply known as Disney Channel. This network has been the creative force of some of the funniest and most popular kids and teens programming.
