Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (2006–2016)

Minnie's Bow-Toons is an American animated preschool television series from Disney Television Animation.[2] The series aired from November 14, 2011, to January 22, 2016, on Disney Junior, as a short-form series targeted at preschool girls, as well as the spin-off from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.[3][4] The series is based on the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episode "Minnie's Bow-tique".[5] In both the episode and its spin-off, Minnie opens the same boutique from the former - this time with bows and bow-ties.

Minnie's Bow-Toons introduced the new character Cuckoo-Loca, as well as Minnie's twin nieces formally in animation, Millie and Melody Mouse (starting with the episode "Trouble Times Two").

Minnie's Bow-Toons was followed by a revival of the series, entitled Minnie's Bow-Toons: Party Palace Pals, which was released on April 3, 2021, on Disney Junior's YouTube channel and later aired its first episode on April 5 on Disney Channel, this time in the style of Mickey Mouse Mixed-Up Adventures.[6][7]

Premise

After the events of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episode "Minnie's Bow-tique", this TV series is about the adventures of Minnie Mouse and her best friend Daisy Duck as they run Minnie's Bow-tique, a speciality shop stocked only with colorful bows and bow-ties. Minnie ends all the Season 1 episodes saying, "There's no business like bow business!".

In Season 3, Minnie, Daisy and Cuckoo-Loca open a pet grooming salon adjacent to the Bow-tique. In Season 4, Minnie, Daisy and Cuckoo-Loca go on international trips, visiting cities like London, Paris, Venice and Tokyo. In Season 6, Minnie, Daisy and Cuckoo-Loca start a new party planning business. In Season 8, they go on all sorts of adventures while camping.
