This article is about the TV series. For articles that share the same name, see Mickey Mouse (disambiguation).
Mickey Mouse is an American series of animated shorts developed, executive produced, and directed by Paul Rudish, known for his work on Cartoon Network series, such as Dexter's Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls, and produced by Disney Television Animation for Disney Channel. It features the Sensational Six (Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy, and Pluto) and other classic characters in contemporary settings, such as Paris and New York City. The series evokes the slapstick feel of the classic Mickey Mouse and friends' cartoons, but tries to avoid cliches of the classics, such as anvils or TNT. The shorts also place the titular character in humorous situations that showcase his pluck and rascality along with his long-beloved charm and good-heartedness.
Announced at Disney's upfront meeting on March 12, 2013, the series premiered on June 28 on Disney Channel and ended on July 20, 2019.
A successor series, The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse, premiered on Disney+ on November 18, 2020.
