I used to love watching "The Mickey Mouse Club", or better yet "MMC", as a kid. I was pretty much obsessed with the show. I had almost every episode on tape. :) This show was such a great show for kids and teens to watch. They had cute little skits along with singing and dancing, not to mention a wonderful cast. I would probably compare this show to Nickelodeon's "Roundhouse", but to me they were both really different shows. The success of so many of the castmates (Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera,...) just proves how well the casting directors did their job. :) It's been really fun to get to see so many of the mouseketeers grow up and be so successful. It's kind of like I grew up with them. All in all, this was a great show. I would of course give it a ten out of ten. :)

I'm 38 and watched this show back when it aired. I even auditioned for it in 1991. I had to watch it at my friend's house because our family was too poor to have the Disney channel. I was 9 when it came out and watched it til it ended. I cannot explain how much this show means to me and the impact it had on my youth. My friends and I were OBSESSED. We learned all the songs and dances, and did little skits, performing for family, friends and neighbors. The show was funny and the talent the show had was AMAZING. It inspired me to be a singer. I luckily have all of the episodes recorded so the MMC is still a part of my life. Many celebrities came from the show such as: Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Ryan Gosling, Keri Russell and more. I feel a little special that I knew them before they became famous. I loved the whole cast in each season. I wish the show would come to dvd so I can get better quality videos but I am blessed to have the decent quality ones I had recorded. They should really make a reboot. This and Kids Inc were MY LIFE growing up.

This 90s version of the Mickey Mouse Club, like all its predecessors, is again a masterful TV show that is both embedded in its era and helped shape it at the same time. A great show with cult status and a lot of fun while watching.

I used to watch MMC when I was about six to seven years old and I loved it! Considering the time it was set in (the late eighties and early nineties) it was representative of all the teen/child oriented shows, but it was much more entertaining than others I could name (such as Kids Incorporated, which used to air just before). A lot of people roll their eyes at me when I stress that it was a good show, but it really was. And the good thing is, I do not recall seeing Britney Spears or Justin Timberlake once. EVER. They weren't the stars, because there were other, older, more talented kids doing their thing in the spotlight (including Keri Russell, Tony Lucca, and yes, JC Chasez). Great show, even if today it would look a little dated.
I really did like this show now that I think about. Sometimes I wish they would play reruns of it. Ryan Gosling and Justin Timberlake were so cute! Britney and Christina were still friends! It was a really funny and cute show to me. I saw it as a marathon when NSYNC was famous and so it was cute to see Justing Timberlake and JC acting and stuff. But my I really liked Ryan Gosling. Still do, of course. The random skits make you laugh ... the music videos sort of strange ... and Britney Spears singing ... um ... yeah. The skits were great. I love the one drama I forgot what it was called ... liked "Emerald Cove" or whatever. That was hilarious, I think it was supposed to be dramatic, but you end up laughing anyways. But my favorite still is, and always will be by Ryan Gosling, "Aren't you just sick and tired of the word bogus?"

MMC was the best show for young people out there. You couldn't get enough. It was singing, dancing, AND acting. 3 different aspects of show business. It launched the careers of Britney Spears, JC Chasez, Justin Timberlake, Tony Lucca, Keri Russell, Dale Godboldo, Ryan Gosling, Marc Worden, Christina Aguilera, and the list just goes on and on! This show is DEFINATELY a 10!
Do you remember any of the other cute kids on that show besides all the famous ones? Matt Morris was such a hotty and I can't find any info. on him past 1993. Brandy Brown was in the very first episodes and she was way talented, but she just dropped off the face of the earth! And what ever happened to "The Party?" They were so cool! If anyone has any info. on any of this, please let me know! We should start a petition or something to the Disney Channel to get them to broadcast MMC again, don't ya think? Maybe we could get them to air Kids Inc. too. It was way cool. It's worth a try... Let me know!
There's no other word for it. MMC(Mickey Mouse Club) was the best show around! Some may disagree, but I was at the age where I loved the show, even now at the age of 19, I watch my old tapes of the show. And now that there's people from the show who are famous again just goes to show that they really are talents. If only there was a show out there for kids like MMC was there when I would younger.

In 1979 (1981 in the USA) "You Can't Do That On Television" came on to the air. It was the highest rated show on cable. In 1989, To rip-off "You Can't Do That On Television," and make another generation of viewers, Disney came up with "The All New Mickey Mouse Club" (a.k.a MMC).
MMC is a mix of "You Can't Do That On Television" and the first episodes of "The Mickey Mouse Club" (the original series). This show contains everything you can need: music, and comedy. The sketches aren't really funny, and the music looks lip-synched most of the time. MMC can be enjoyable if you set your mind to it. If you don't, in plain English words, the show sucks.
If you are a big fan of "You Can't Do That On Television," you we'll hate the show. Everybody else will just like MMC (such as Disney fans, and Mickey Mouse Club fans). This show is okay, but could of been better. My Grade: C+/B-

MMC is my favorite show. I don't know why they do not play the reruns of it. It was very funny. I've heard it be described as a kids version of SNL. It was a show where the teenage actors put on skits and perform songs. This was and is the BEST SHOW EVER!!

This show was absolute crap. It was great if you wanted to screw up the minds of the young into Disneyesque/50's sitcoms zombies. And look at the end product: Britney Spears... Ugh...
