Show Summary

Stars of every Disney film ever made are seated in the audience, often becoming part of the show themselves, as Mickey and his friends entertain and premiere original cartoons. "The show must go on," as Mickey and gang must keep the club running, so Pete, the owner of the building, doesn't shut it down. A Christmas special entitled "Snowed in at the House of Mouse" is available on DVD and VHS. The DVD edition includes the first episode of the series, The Stolen Cartoons, in the "Special Features" section. Also available is soundtrack for this series, which features original songs as well as older Disney favorites. The album is available on Disney Records (the cover for the CD is the picture shown here). Now, Mickey's House Of Villains makes it's way on DVD and Video Sept. 3, 2003 for the villains musical number "It's Our House Now."

Characters
Mickey Mouse - Emcee Mickey Mouse hosts the nightclub, that's the hottest spot on Main Street, and the tooniest place on Earth, The House of Mouse. He is a kind-hearted and popular American icon that's been around since the '20s, and has been the Disney mascot since.
Minnie Mouse - When pandemonium breaks loose anywhere in the club, you can always count on Mickey's girlfriend, Minnie, to straiten things out from behind the scenes. When Mickey starts to panic from pressure, Minnie's there to calm him down.
Pluto - Mickey's faithful dog, Pluto, is also there, behind the scenes, keeping things in order.
Donald Duck - Donald Duck, owns The House of Mouse 50-50 with his best friend, Mickey. It's also his job to greet guests at the door. He can loose his temper very easily, but he can remain calm, if he tries... sometimes.
Daisy Duck - Donald's girlfriend, Daisy Duck, is responsible for having guests reserved and seated. She also does some pretty weird stuff every time Mickey gives her a chance on the stage.
Goofy Goof - Mickey and Donald's other friend, Goofy, is headwaiter of the club. With his clumsiness, we can be sure a lot of dishes are broken! Despite that, and that he shows little common sense, he's a loyal friend.
Maximilian "Max" Goof - Goofy's skateboard-cool, teenage son is valet of the club. Now, if only he could get his own car.
Gus Goose - Gus is the club cook. Just try to keep him from eating the food.
Clarabelle Cow - This cow is the queen of Main Street gossip. If she hears something juicy, she can't keep her mouth shut!
Horace Horsecollar - Horace is in charge of all multimedia works of the club. He runs cartoons, lights, sounds, you name it. The one line you're bound to hear directed to him is, "Hit it, Horace!"
Pete - Pete is the landlord of the building The House of Mouse takes place in... and he'll do anything to stop the show and shut down the club.moreless

    "Perfect"
    This is a series which is unique in its own. The way Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Daisy, Clarabelle, Horace, Pluto and Max manage to accomodate both heroes and villains from most Disney movies and series is amazing. There's humour for all tastes and it's funny to see both heroes and villains talking with each others, without trying to killing themselves.

    Aside from that, we also have new cartoons with Mickey and his friends, which is awesome. The voice cast is amazing and I praise the way they handled so many characters, without breaking the character. It was also a good way for many people to get to know so many good Disney characters and see some of the old ones too. I give this one a 10moreless
  • Great for Disney fans, young and old alike.

    My only complaint about this show is that it wasn't around when I was a kid. How many of you wished to see ALL of your favorite Disney characters together? What makes this show cool is that they don't just stop at the main characters, (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, etc.) but they include the characters from the disney films, (Like Jaffar from Aladdin, Timon and Pumba, and Princess Aurora from Sleeping Beauty, (although she seemed to be suffering from Narcolepsy, a side effect from the sleeping curse.)

    This is one Disney show I want on DVD.moreless
  • Great reboot of classics, but should have been handled easier.

    Story: Mickey Mouse decides to bring Goofy, Donald, Minnie, and more all make a night club to show cartoons to all the Disney cartoons
    Characters and Traits: All the characters are the same as how they acted in thier cartoons, including the guests, which is a great thing
    Stuff I Like: Character Design look just like original characters, Goofy is just hilarious, other characters are funny, including audience of Cruella De Vil and Timon and Pumbaa, shorts themselves are clever, seeing Disney animate modern technology, such as computers, apartments, and cell phones
    Stuff I Don't Like: Character Animation rather basic, as crowd can be very repetitive with it's animation, and nothing very different with how it looks, Daisy and Minnie are very annoying and manipulative to their boyfriend, most notably Daisy, as Minnie is more understandable with her manipulation, character design for crowd very poor compared to movies, most notably Lion King characters, and Hunchback of Notre Dame characters, wish for more shorts to be shown
    Overall: With entertaining shorts, memorable characters, decent animation, and more the show is a lot of fun, and a good return to our favorite cartoon characters. Is it better than the originals? No. Is it an entertaining alternative? Oh yes. Give it a watch and see how you would feel about it.moreless

    Guys, you do know that Mickey's House of Villans still airs on Disney, which is like a movie-version of this show?
  • Disney's House of Mouse was a good reboot to old classic characters, but has a few flaws

    In the final years of Disney being a really good channel, out came Mickey Mouse's last good show, House of Mouse. The show was about Mickey running a night club with Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and many more. The show even has all the Disney characters from movies like Aladdin, The Mad Hatter, Hades, and so much more. In each episode the show has several shorts that have either Donald, Mickey. Minnie, Goofy, Daisy, Pluto, or combination of three characters. The shorts are funny and are rather creative and are entertaining. The artwork is decent enough, characters look like who they are supposed to be, and there are a good amount of colors that make the show friendly. The Disney movie characters never failed to give me a laugh, especially Hades. The animation though is repetitive, and some scenes are used again and again throughout each episode. The show usually follows plots that are somewhat original but can also be plots I have seen before, but there are some that are creative. The only other issue I have is that I wish they showed more shorts of the characters, and while the plots are decent, there could have been more shorts. Overall, House of Mouse was a really good attempt to bring back classic characters and did a solid job doing that. It's got a few flaws like repetitive animation and not enough shorts, but House of Mouse is a definite must see and is very enjoyable.moreless
