I don’t care what anyone says, Disney Channel original movies were the bomb.com. They would feature all of our beloved Disney stars and we loved seeing the relatable, often cheesy, stories on screen. Without Disney, what would we have spent our pre-teen Friday nights doing?
Did you know that some of our favorites are based off of books? No? Well here are some of the Disney Channel original movies that were!
