User blog:EliNinja/Disney XD: My Favorite Channel

Hey guys, this is a new blog thingy where I review TV channels n stuff.

Tonight, I will review Disney XD, you know, Disney's 24-hour brother channel which airs some fresh Disney cartoons along with some action sitcoms.

OK, so this green, purple and pink beauty was launched back in 1998 as Toon Disney, the best place for classic Disney cartoons along with some mid-2000s DC cartoons which also aired an action block called Jetix. I got Toon Disney back in 2007 so I don't remember much about watching it. Disney then decided to rebrand it in 2009 as the green awesomeness we all know and love today.

At first, Disney XD was like the gender-bent version of the Disney Channel, since DC is mostly for tween girls while XD was mostly for boys in its first 5 or so years of life. But as TV started changing from channel to channel, Disney XD is now considered Disney Channel's version of what Nicktoons Network is, a 24-hour place for cartoons that previously aired on the main channel along with some original animated and live-action programming. You could say it's still TD on the inside...sort of.

The reason why I love watching this holy grail of a channel is that, well, it has some pretty damn good shows like Wander Over Yander, Gravity Falls, Pickle and Peanut, Star vs. FOE, Phineas and Ferb, and some other cool cartoons as well. There are also some pretty cool action cartoons too, like Guardians of the Galaxy, Star Wars Droids, Ultimate Spiderman, etc.

I also love the channels idents, bumps and promos, which use some pretty cool elements in them.

Some people might hate this channel for replacing Toon Disney, but that's only because it's too fresh for their hipster faces, which is why I give Disney XD a 1000000/10, because it has some fresh stuff that both dudes and ladies can enjoy, even if it was originally intended for dudes only.

Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna watch some Disney XD.
