House of Mouse is an American animated television series, produced by Walt Disney Television, which originally aired on ABC from January 2001 to May 2002, before moving to Toon Disney and Disney Channel from September 2002 to October 2003. In the series, Disney mascot Mickey and his gang of famous friends run a nightclub frequented by many other animated Disney characters from throughout the company's animation history. The series was a successor to the short-lived Mickey Mouse Works, an earlier program consisting of original cartoons featuring Mickey Mouse and friends. The majority of the cartoons featured on House of Mouse were reruns from Mickey Mouse Works, although classic theatrical cartoons as well as new Mickey Mouse Works cartoons were also regularly shown. The series was also created to commemorate and coincide with the 100th anniversary of Walt Disney's birth. The series also spawned two direct-to video films: Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse and Mickey's House of Villains.
