What happens

Mickey Mouse (also known as Mickey Mouse Shorts) is an American animated television series produced by Disney Television Animation. Featuring Disney cartoon characters Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy and Pluto in contemporary settings such as Paris, Venice, Tokyo and New York, the series has the slapstick feel of the earliest Mickey Mouse shorts while providing a modern update, and "presents Mickey in a broad range of humorous situations that showcase his pluck and rascality, along with his long-beloved charm and good heartedness". The animation is provided by Mercury Filmworks. The series was created and developed by artist Paul Rudish, who was the co-creator of the Cartoon Network television series Sym-Bionic Titan and is also the series' executive producer and supervising director, while Joseph Holt is the series' art director. Chris Diamantopoulos was cast instead of Bret Iwan, because the producers wanted a voice that sounded similar to the one used by Walt Disney for Walt's portrayal of Mickey. Paul Rudish, Jenny Gase-Baker and Joseph Holt won three Emmy Awards for their work on the series in September 2013. The pilot episode, "Croissant de Triomphe", was first released as a special preview on March 12, 2013, on Disney.com. The series officially premiered on June 28 of that year on Disney Channel, followed by the releases on Disney.com and Watch Disney Channel. A total of 18 episodes aired in the first season while the second season, premiering on April 11, 2014, consisted of 19 episodes. The third season premiered on July 17, 2015, with 20 episodes aired. The fourth season premiered on June 9, 2017, with 19 episodes aired. The fifth and final season of the original series premiered on October 6, 2018, with 18 episodes aired. The series was succeeded with The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse, which premiered on Disney+, on November 18, 2020, to coincide with Mickey's 92nd birthday. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
