www.youtube.com/watch?v=LG5N4oe4t3E&t=247sScroll to the 1:00 mark. This is from the future Pop channel (yes the Pop channel had a COMPLETLY DIFFERENT format back than). You will notice that amongst the specials (most if not all would NEVER air on the Disney Channel today) is the “movie” called: “Bill Cosby: Himself.” (It’s just two hours of Bill Cosby doing stand up comedy). Considerating what we know now about Bill Cosby, there is NO WAY Disney would air this movie today. Heck, he still could have a squeaky clean image and still there is no way Disney would air it. Now considerating there is mild cursing in this movie, I wonder is Disney edited the profanities out.

Let's just say that video currently sits BEHIND Song Of The South in the Disney vault.

Screw Cosby, we at least get Flight Of The Navigator and the Tale Spin premiere.

Can't believe what the Prevue Channel evolved into.
Apparently TDC also once aired National Lampoon's European Vacation. Some of the Marilyn Monroe movies too (which they COULD do now as part of Disney+, being that it's Fox and all)
And needless to say, they were quite eclectic in general. One block of 80s ads I watched included spots for: Superman: The Movie, Batman: The Movie (Adam West), as well as properties from Hanna-Barbera and Don Bluth.
