Disney Wizard of Waverly Place Full Movie

Remember the time when you were crushing on Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez? I am about to take you back in time to relive that moments for good. Walt Disney was a great man whose imagination went beyond ordinary and that was how Disney channel was created. The advent of Disney not only redefined television but it also gave gifted a memorable childhood. I didn't forget the promise I made in the beginning (and I still have a crush on Selena).

Listed below are some amazing classics that Disney delivered in the old days. Before I begin I would like to advise the audience not to trust IMDb ratings for the show (as they are too low). It may be because of limited viewership or other reasons. Enough said. Let's revisit our childhood shall we? Here's the list of top old Disney shows. These shows have aged like wine. The older they, the more interesting they become. You can watch many of these old Disney shows on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Prime.

14. The Suite Life of Zack and Cody

Cole Sprouse is now dubbed as Jughead Jones (thanks to Riverdale) but those who grew in 2000's know him as Cody Martin. The viewers witnessed the mischievous twins turning the Tipton hotel upside down. Every character in this show stands out with his or unique quirks, be it the naughty twins, the broke Maddie or the dimwitted London and mark my words, you will definitely relate to any one of the characters.

11. American Dragon: Jake Long

I fail to understand why this show ended only after two seasons despite having an intriguing and novel concept. Maybe it was the declining viewership; anyway, it follows Jack Long, an American teenager who has Chinese roots. He has a secret – he can transform into a dragon. He is secretly training to become the first American Dragon under his grandpa and an ancient dog. The streets of Manhattan become his training ground as he tries to protect other magical creatures, namely, unicorns mermaids etc.

7. Gravity Falls

Relatively, it's a new show as compared to others on the list. It's just sad how every good show comes to an end. The story follows two siblings Dipper and Mable who are sent to a mysterious town "Gravity Falls" to stay with their great uncle. It features the adventures of Dipper and Mable in a town with supernatural creatures. The creators have bent and broken the mould of reality in this one.

The show shaped Shia LaBeouf's career. Disney has a thing for misfit teenagers.

3. Hannah Montana

This one might have a low IMDb rating but I know some people (including myself) who memorized the opening theme song "Best of both worlds" by heart. It revolves around Miley Stewart who leads a double life, a normal teenager by day and a pop sensation (Hannah Montana) by night. Back then, Miley Cyrus' image was different. She was a cute celebrity on whom every adolescent had a crush (again including me). It ran for four seasons and it also stars Billy Ray Cyrus as Miley Stewart's father, who interestingly is the real-life father of Miley Cyrus.

It also is different from other Disney Originals. It is often criticized for its visual effects but considering it's a 2004 show, it's good.

Like many other shows on the list, in this show also, the characters are unique, they have their unique strengths and they also have their unique quirks, much like people in real life.
