MUMBAI: The endearing,
adventurous and comedic antics of
Mickey Mouse, Disney's #1 star and
the world's leading character
franchise, will be premiered on
Disney Channel in a new short-form
series of 2D comedy cartoons.
Disney Channel India which had
earlier introduced viewers to two
episodes of the short form series of
2D comedy cartoons on the
beloved character's birthday, will
air 4 new episodes of the Mickey
Mouse cartoon shorts on January
27th at 5pm. With the slapstick feel
of classic Mickey Mouse, the series
of cartoon shorts presents Mickey in
a broad range of humorous
situations that showcase his pluck
and rascality, along with his long-
beloved charm and good
heartedness.
The new episodes 'Yodelberg', 'New
York Weenie, 'Tokyo Go' and
'Stayin’ Cool' will follow Mickey to
places like New York, The Alps and
Tokyo facing silly situations, quick
complications and an escalation of
physical and visual gags. The
episodes include 'Yodelberg' where
Mickey longs to visit Minnie atop
her mountaintop chalet but quickly
realizes that the threat of
avalanche has made the trek up the
mountain more challenging than
usual and 'New York Weenie'
where Mickey hilariously chases
after a runway hot dog through
Central Park. Another special
episode 'Tokyo Go' follows Mickey's
adventures in Tokyo, where he
accidentally boards the wrong
bullet train while the episode
‘Stayin’ Cool’ follows Mickey, Donald
and Goofy as they must find
creative ways to keep cool on the
hottest day of the year. These
stories feature heartfelt and heroic
moments as Mickey experiences life
with his comical partners Minnie,
Donald, Daisy, Goofy and Pluto.
