But some of my favorites were aired only on television, particularly the Disney Sunday Movie. I don’t remember which network aired them, but the show took a two-hour block on Sunday evenings. Sometimes they showed theatrical films; other times, they showcased some made-for-TV movies.

Some of these I consider essential parts of my childhood, and it surprises me many “triggers” I find for them in my life even now. For example, every time I have a breakfast sandwich from McDonalds, I’m reminded of a sequence of one of these cheesy movies.

So join me as I try to find as much information as I can on some of my favorites, and post about them as soon as I find enough info to make it entertaining and informative. Feel free to comment about your memories and favorites, as well.
