In the same period, Romano Scarpa in Italy for the magazine Topolino began to revitalize Mickey in stories that brought back the Phantom Blot and Eega Beeva along with new creations such as the Atomo Bleep-Bleep. This renaissance has been spearheaded by Byron Erickson, David Gerstein, Noel Van Horn, Michael T. Gilbert and César Ferioli. In Mickey's early films he was often characterized not as a hero, but as an ineffective young suitor to Minnie Mouse.

As a final class project, Ibarra has students “build” a ride, from start to finish, with details including the concept and design, how ride safety would work and how passengers would move in and out of the attraction. Ibarra launched the class in spring 2023 as part of the university’s R’Courses series, which started in 2014 and lets undergraduate students design and teach innovative seminar courses. Student instructors get to practice teaching a subject in which they’re interested and work with a faculty mentor. She had students focus on ride details and talk about the history and methods Imagineers used to create the world’s first tubular steel-track roller coaster. Inspired by Switzerland’s Matterhorn, it opened in 1959, according to Disneyland’s website.

Mickey's stories were replaced by the adventures of Tuffolino, a new human character that looked like Mickey, created by Federico Pedrocchi (script) and Pier Lorenzo De Vita (art). The premise of the show was that Mickey Mouse owned a nightclub called the “House of Mouse,” which served as a gathering place for Disney characters after their respective stories and adventures. The club was located in the center of Main Street in Toontown and was frequented by characters from classic Disney films, modern animated features, and classic shorts.

The final step on the checklist was putting the doors and windows into the walls of the house. Mickey remembers a series of events that caused the toolbox to land in the squirrel's tree. The squirrel grabs the key from the toolbox before it rolls back to Mickey's front door. Mickey concludes that they key fell out of his toolbox when it landed in the tree, so the friends search the tree for the key.
The character went on to appear in over 130 films, mostly shorts (also featuring characters such as his girlfriend Minnie Mouse, his pet dog Pluto, and friends Donald Duck and Goofy), as well as features such as Fantasia (1940). Since 1930, Mickey has been featured extensively in comic strips (including the Mickey Mouse comic strip, which ran for 45 years) and comic books (such as Mickey Mouse). The character has also been featured in television series such as The Mickey Mouse Club (1955–1996). “House of Mouse” was an animated television series that aired on the Disney Channel from 2001 to 2003.
Once the problem of the episode has been explained, Mickey invites the viewers to join him at the Mousekedoer, a giant Mickey-head-shaped computer whose main function is to distribute the day's Mouseketools, a collection of tools needed to solve the day's problem, to Mickey. Realizing that they spend too much money, he increases the prices on everything and slashes all of the club's budgets. Eventually, when the guests are driven away by the gang out-Scrooging Scrooge, the old duck takes back all the money from Pete that he used to pay for the club and things return to normal. Donald remembers him from past cartoons and is not too happy about it, especially when the chaos caused by the bird is attributed to Donald. It is Ladies' Night, and Minnie, Daisy and Clarabelle are in charge of the club while Mickey, Donald and Goofy go bowling. Obsessed with being a part of the show, Mortimer tries to ruin it by telling the boys that the club is in trouble.
Rockin’ at the House of Mouse (Song)
Meanwhile, most of the voice actors from Disney's animated franchises of the late-1980s to 2000 reprised their roles in this show, except for a few exceptions. Similar to his animated inclusion into a live-action film in Roger Rabbit, Mickey made a featured cameo appearance in the 1990 television special The Muppets at Walt Disney World where he met Kermit the Frog. The two are established in the story as having been old friends, although they have not made any other appearance together outside of this. Throughout the decades, Mickey Mouse competed with Warner Bros.' Bugs Bunny for animated popularity.
Season 2 (2001–
There were other limits for this program as well, which forbids the use of Pixar characters due to Disney not owning content from Pixar prior to 2006[23] and King Louie following a legal dispute. This even omits characters created for the direct-to-video sequels due to promotional problems[24][25] as only allowing characters from the original source material. The series was a successor to the short-lived Mickey Mouse Works, an earlier program consisting of original cartoons featuring Mickey Mouse and friends. The majority of the cartoons featured on House of Mouse were reruns from Mickey Mouse Works, although classic theatrical cartoons as well as new Mickey Mouse Works cartoons were also regularly shown. The series was also created to commemorate and coincide with the 100th anniversary of Walt Disney's birth.
Opening Theme
The Barn Dance (March 14, 1929) is the first time in which Mickey is turned down by Minnie in favor of Pete. The Opry House (March 28, 1929) was the first time in which Mickey wore his white gloves. Mickey wears them in almost all of his subsequent appearances and many other characters followed suit. The three lines on the back of Mickey's gloves represent darts in the gloves' fabric extending from between the digits of the hand, typical of glove design of the era. The episode begins with the gang having finished building Mickey's new house, but Mickey has trouble finding the key to it. Minnie suggests that Mickey retrace his steps to find it in case he dropped it somewhere.
The character's depiction as a small mouse is personified through his diminutive stature and falsetto voice, the latter of which was originally provided by Walt Disney. Though originally characterized as a cheeky lovable rogue, Mickey was rebranded over time as a nice guy, usually seen as a spirited, yet impulsive hero. Geared to kids ages 2-7 and their families, “Mickey Mouse Funhouse” features Funny, an enchanted talking playhouse who leads the Sensational Six – Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy and Pluto – on magical adventures to unique worlds that inspire imagination. Since its premiere in August 2021, “Mickey Mouse Funhouse” has amassed nearly half a billion hours of viewing across linear, streaming and Disney Junior YouTube and consistently ranks as a top 10 monthly series on Disney Junior YouTube.
Mickey goes over his checklist to see what he did first, which was digging a big hole in the ground to set the foundation for his house. However, during a comical struggle thanks to Goofy's bouncy wrecking ball, Minnie gets covered in some of Daisy's cement and causes her Roadster to knock Mickey's key out of his hands. The music the key plays catches the attention of a squirrel, who immediately grabs it and likes it. The animated series is a spin off of the series Mickey Mouse Works, and featured many of the series' shorts as well as selection of brand new shorts, and classic Mickey Mouse, Goofy and Donald Duck shorts from the 1930s–50s.
Mickey was the main character for the series MM Mickey Mouse Mystery Magazine, published in Italy from 1999 to 2001. The last regular installment of the Mickey Mouse film series came in 1953 with The Simple Things in which Mickey and Pluto go fishing and are pestered by a flock of seagulls. The first two seasons of “Mickey Mouse Funhouse” are available to stream now on Disney+. Cynics say the entire house is just a dressed-up queue to distract you from the sometimes long wait to meet the world's most famous mouse, but that's just fine with me.
Everyone looks forward to the Turkey coming to the club on Thanksgiving, but not just for his performance. Mickey tries to prove Ludwig Von Drake wrong after he states that he knows everything. It turns out true; Von Drake forgot to count himself as one of the guests when singing about who was there. Chip and Dale try to steal all the nuts in the club, and when Donald tries to stop them, Mickey and Goofy blame him for the theft. Chip and Dale finally trick Donald into flooding the club with the stolen nuts, which Mickey and Goofy think it was Donald's idea of a tribute to Chip and Dale.
In early 1930, after Iwerks' departure, Disney was at first content to continue scripting the Mickey Mouse comic strip, assigning the art to Win Smith. However, Disney's focus had always been in animation and Smith was soon assigned with the scripting as well. Smith was apparently discontent at the prospect of having to script, draw, and ink a series by himself as evidenced by his sudden resignation.
Minnie goes down to the prop basement to find Mickey a birthday present, but after realizing that she did not take Pluto, Mickey thinks that she is lost and takes Pluto, Goofy and Donald with him to find her. In an attempt to shut down the club, Pete buys magic sleeping apples from the Evil Queen/Old Peddler Woman, successfully putting everyone but Pluto to sleep. Thus, Pluto attempts to keep the show going, and after managing to do so, he kisses everyone and wakes them up, foiling Pete's plans to shut down the club once again. Before the show ends, Mickey needs to pay the rent for Pete after he unwittingly spends the money on cheese. To keep Pete busy, Mickey gives him the royal treatment until Minnie reveals she foresaw Mickey making a blunder like using the rent money on cheese and gives up saved money she kept in case of an emergency like this. Pete attempts to stop the show again by removing the electrical battery and turning off all the club's electricity.
The radio still plays the W.A.C.K.Y. Radio Toontown loop which has been here since 1993, including references to the former Jolly Trolley. Mickey and his pals finish building Mickey's new house but they now must find the keys to the house. After the show ended in 2016, it was succeeded by Mickey and the Roadster Racers (later renamed Mickey Mouse Mixed-Up Adventures), which ran from 2017 to 2021, and Mickey Mouse Funhouse, which started in 2021. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Pluto interact with the viewer to stimulate problem solving during a self contained story.
