Disney returns to its roots!

Saw this posted over at RB, and I was happy to hear the news.

It seems Mickey Mouse and other various classic characters have returned to Disney, in segments called "have-a-laugh!" It premiered today at 2:25 p.m. EST. Here's a bit of info from Disney Consumer Products:

For kids and adults, Disney's Have-A-Laugh is a new companywide initiative that will showcase the rich library of original Mickey cartoon shorts across a variety of formats and platforms, including television, online and DVD starting this fall. The Mickey of "Have a Laugh" is young, funny, a bit mischievous, and contemporary. DCP will reflect the humor and fun from these Mickey moments into products for kids that will incorporate editorial, fun designs and fresh images.

I always loved watching those Goofy how-tos! And the old school 5 minutes shorts were the best! Glad Disney's pulling this out
