Disney's Teacher's Pet (found Toon Disney animated series; 2000-2002)
Disney's Teacher's Pet was an American animated series that aired on ABC's One Saturday Morning block from September 9th, 2000 to February 9th, 2002 (The first 1/3 of the Second Season aired on ABC)[1] and the remaining season Two episodes had aired on Toon Disney from January 11th, 2002 to May 10th, 2002.[2]
After a bit of delay with dates ranging from September 2003 to February 2004, a theatrical movie finale was finally released on January 16th, 2004, to box-office failure due to barely being promoted outside of the main Disney stations. Despite this, the movie has been critically acclaimed.
While the show was popular in its heyday, the show went into obscurity since Toon Disney stopped running reruns in June 2006. Besides the first episode being released on the movie DVD, no other episodes were ever released in any other format.
Between Late 2008 and June 2013, VHS recordings were uploaded to YouTube until Disney took them all down due to copyright. Since September 2013, many of them (despite being of low quality at the time) had been uploaded to a special Facebook page. A Dailymotion page has also been hosting episodes since March 2014.
As of January 2015, Twenty Nine full episodes have been found. Eleven episodes have been found in Russian, including a few that have been missing in English (Like "Attack Of The 50 Inch Girl" and "The Blight Before Christmas"), and one in Greek ("Never Take Candy From A Kindergartner").
- One issue with some episodes is that there are brief scenes (usually after the episode comes back from commercial break) that are missing due to how the episode was recorded ("Scott's Honor," "Costume Pity Party," and "Party Animal"). This can even result in the title card or even credits being omitted from the video ("Pet Project," "A Few Good Boys," and "Never Take Candy From A Kindergartner"). One episode ("A Breed Apart") happens to have issues with keeping the tape in place, which results in the video being all jittery.
As of June 18th, 2017, all of the episodes of Teacher's Pet have been found, and on November 12th, 2019, the entire series was made available in HD on Disney's streaming service Disney+.[3]
