===Background===  
===Background===  
Disney's TV output from 1954 until 1981 (the anthology series, Zorro, Mickey Mouse Club) had no in-credit text for "Walt Disney Productions" at all, only a copyright stamp at the end of the closing credits; also, it didn't have its own television arm until 1983 as "Walt Disney Pictures Television". The name Disney obviously required no indication, unlike other studios. Syndication of Disney's library was done by [[SFM Entertainment]]. The original Mickey Mouse Club, The Mouse Factory, and the 1970s revival of MMC were the only programs made available through syndication; in the days before the Disney Channel, the lesser movies and the short cartoons were seen only on the anthology series, while the animated films and first-tier live-action films were, of course, re-issued to theaters. When the anthology series moved to CBS however, this changed. In 2003, the Walt Disney Television Group (now the "Disney-ABC Television Group") in the U.S. was shut down and reincorporated to its [[Disney Television Animation|television animation division]] (currently part of Disney Channel since 2005). The live-action division of the company was already folded into [[Touchstone Television]] (now [[ABC Studios]]) shortly after Disney reincorporated its TV output to its television animation division. Today, WDT is still active as in-name-only by producing programs internationally.

'''Logo:''' Against a white background, we see Goofy appear upside down from the top-left corner with a quizzical look on his face. As his expression changes from a confused one to an excited one, the logo zooms out to reveal it's on a white filmstrip, superimposed on a {{Font color|#0037de|shaded blue}} gradient background decorated with black drawings of the typical castle. The text "WALT DiSNEY <span style=font-family:Times-New-Roman;>Television</span>" (with "WALT DiSNEY" in its corporate font) can be seen below the white filmstrip, then after a few seconds it changes to the "<span style=font-family:Times-New-Roman;>Distributed By Buena Vista Television</span>" text.
