ABC's lineup of Saturday morning cartoons in the '90s was filled with timeless shows like The Weekenders and House of Mouse. Among the best shows they had to offer was Recess, created by Paul Germain and Jon Ansolabehere. The series follows fourth-graders Tj, Spinelli, Vince, Gretchen, Mikey, and Gus as they and the many colorful characters who surround them get into strange adventures, primarily during their recess period.

Recess is a classic animated Disney series that any '90s kid will remember fondly. Similarly to Codename: Kids Next Door, much of the series' appeal stems from its expansive cast and the way that, no matter how silly the stories seem on the surface, the characters take them completely seriously. Recess ran for six seasons across multiple networks, and while the changes between them are minimal, they're still noticeable.

The series ran from 1997 to 2001 and had 65 episodes. It concluded with the theatrical film Recess: School’s Out in 2001 and a handful of direct-to-video specials.

Following the news of his death, fellow actor Stiller took to X (formerly Twitter) to write, “The great Dabney Coleman literally created, or defined, really – in a uniquely singular way — an archetype as a character actor. He was so good...

Since its first feature film in 1937, Disney has crafted a sterling reputation as one of the most consistent studios in the world. More often than not, audiences can head into a Disney production knowing they're likely to see a quality picture. Although, this sterling reputation isn't to say they haven't had any duds.

Ranking every movie made under the Disney banner would take forever. Between their live-action and animated works, Disney's movie portfolio is massive. Plus, this sizable group only continues to grow with acquisitions such as Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars. But with the trusty help of everyone's favorite movie rating site, Rotten Tomatoes, it's possible to rank the least popular that Disney has to offer regarding its bread and butter: animation.
