The Mickey Mouse Club first aired on October 3, 1955. It quickly became a national phenomenon. The original show aired from 1955 to 1959. Disney also syndicated the show from 1962-1965, and again from 1975 to 1978. In 1978, the New Mickey Mouse Club aired. Disney also resurrected the Club in 1989 with an all new cast and a new modern feel. That show ran from 1989 through 1995. The latter two shows never produced the same level of popularity the original show did but were popular to an extent with newer generations. These pages focus on the original show.
