Release of older Playhouse Disney and Disney Junior shows from the Disney Vault

Release of older Playhouse Disney and Disney Junior shows from the Disney Vault

The Issue

There are people my age who remember watching television early in the weekday mornings when there was no school and watching Playhouse Disney, and there are children who I believe get up in the morning when there is no school to watch their favorite show on Disney Junior. But, it seems that people are forgetting about the shows of Playhouse Disney and focusing more on the modern Disney Junior. I feel that it is unfair, and must be changed for the children of today and tomorrow. To that end, I am asking the Walt Disney Company to open their ears and listen well, for I want to see to it that the older Playhouse Disney shows, as well as some of the Disney Junior shows that have recently been sent to the Disney Vault, to be brought back out for a whole new generation on DVD. Now, I understand that Disney is planning to launch Disney Plus, leaving Netflix forever, and they already have Disney Now, but what about the folks who DON'T have a mobile device in their house that can use Disney Now or Disney Plus?

Take for example, the show Jojo's Circus. There hasn't been a release of this show or any others from the Playhouse Disney block as of yet. Sure, there are some sites where you can watch episodes of Jojo's Circus, but one episode seems to be lost media, with only a few clips scattered around the internet, the Halloween episode known as The Legend of Clownfoot.

I will not stand for this, because as a person who grew up with Disney, I'm doing this, not just for myself and my fellows, but for the company I will FIRMLY stand behind no matter what. Sure, they made PLENTY of mistakes along the way, just look at the recent Snow White remake, but I can assure you, with our voices, we can make sure they don't make another by letting some of their kids' shows fade away, the sake of the values of our children and their children after them depends on it.
