मिकी माउस क्लबहाउस

This show and Dragon Tales are the only cartoons that my two-year-old son will watch. He is fascinated and recently started answering Mickey back. Yes, this is a rip-off of Dora, but my son likes this and not Dora, so who cares? He has seen the sheep, beanstalk and Mars episodes and been glued through them all. He doesn't watch much TV, so this is a great opportunity for me to unload the dishwasher or get dinner ready. (Thank you TiVo!) One thing that does bother me is that Minnie and Daisy have to do all of their adventuring with heels on. Come on! It is 2006. Ducks and mice do not need to wear heels.

My husband and I can't get the songs out of our head. Does anyone know who sings "Hot Dog"?

I find it interesting that some reviewers here have criticized this show with zero knowledge of Disney.

One reviewer states, "Walt Disney and Wayne Allwine are rolling in their Graves." Interesting since Allwine voiced the Mouse for enough episodes to roll 4 seasons of the show before his passing in May of 2009.

Many reviewers are also lambasting the term "Meeska Mooska." These people obviously aren't aware of the Mickey Mouse Club which was Walt's second television show. The Mickey Mouse Club used the phrase, "Meeska Mooska Mousketeer" as a password to open the cartoon vault (Every episode aired a classic Disney short).

In today's program the phrase "Meeska Mooska Mickey Mouse" is used as a password to open the clubhouse. This show is consistent with everything Disney did with their programming in both Walt's lifetime and after.

I've seen lots of people hate this show and MMC doesn't deserve it. It's Dora the Explorer done correctly. Mickey doesn't yell at the viewer and act annoying like Dora does which makes him way more engaging to me as a kid. He's more calm and patient with the viewers like Steve was on Blues Clues. However there are some scenes where the interactivity can be kinda pointless and some scenes that audience interaction could be needed. The rest of the characters like Goofy, Donald and Minnie Mouse are still there charming selves we have known for years. Toodles is a pretty cool gadget who gives Mickey, the audience and his friends the items they need to solve problems and this show is way more educational than Dora by a long shot. This show had the usual letters, shapes, colors and numbers and whatnot but it expanded its curriculum including fractions, science and really basic multiplication and division for a preschool show.

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse returns to the old roots of Disney itself, with morals and lessons, and teaching about helping others, in a fun and energetic way that is very conducive to learning from children. This is something I feel Walt would be proud to write his name to. I hope this series never gets canceled! All of the famous characters from Disney Lore are represented here in the show, and the animation is spot on, and fun, but not overdone. Some of the voices are pretty "close" to their originals, unfortunately a lot of the voices can't be possibly copied (Chip and Dale, etc.) because the character went "out of production" so many years ago, and Paul Frees is unfortunately passed. However, for wholesome family entertainment, this is probably the best bang for your buck today.

My baby loves this show she wouldn't watch anything else. I wish they would make more episodes.
