The Change

I know I haven't been on in forever but that doesn't mean I've forgotten the cause. I actually just didn't know what to say. But I want to give a shout-out to someone in the 'Bring Back The Good Old Disney' Facebook group, who is really awesome, and has gotten us so many members and really been committed to this whole campaign. I'm not going to say his name but if he ever sees this, then he'll know who he is. :) D.S. I just can't believe Disney is so different. I remember when I was young and everyone used to tell me, "When you grow up you'll stop watching Disney Channel." But I promised myself that I never would. Sadly, they were right :(. I still love Disney, a lot. But it's just TOO different. Many people probably think I'm romanticizing the past, and that all childhood things are great. But I'm not. Disney Channel used to be a safe haven for all. It was all about the entertainment and bettering of others. Now it's a laugh track every other second, and someone putting some one else down the rest. No more morals, no more lessons. And it's plain to see what's behind The Change. Money. And other stuff I'm sure. It always is. I know I'm not the only person to notice that Disney is putting more toy advertisements  in the commercial break. Not I'm not saying it's awful and unacceptable, just that I really did enjoy the fact that the majority of Disney commercials were for Disney Channel events or products. Huh... Maybe I got spoiled. :) But I honestly don't feel like we're asking for a lot. Just another channel for older shows. I mean if Teen Nick can afford to do 'Back To The 90's' to appease it's fans, I don't get why Disney can't do the same. I mean really.
