Mickey Mouse Shorts being released on DVD
Mickey Mouse Shorts is coming off of an Emmy win for best short-form animated series, and I really can’t disagree. Mickey is by far the best animated series on TV and everyone should watch it. Thankfully, Disney is gonna help us out because according to TVShowsonDVD, season one of Mickey Mouse shorts is slated to release on DVD on December 2nd for an MSRP of $16, but it’s available for pre-order on Amazon for only $9. That’s a decent price seeing as how you are getting 19 shorts totaling 74 minutes, but you are also going to get a behind-the-scenes making of featurette.
Short of getting Roiland back, which I'm sure isn't going to happen, I don't even think they could get much better than the new voices from the previous season. And the ratings for season 7 weren't much lower on average than for season 6; it was pretty much just a normal season-to-season drop that most likely would have happened regardless.
I mean, look at the actual averages:
Season 1 - 1.57 million viewers Season 2 - 1.97 million viewers Season 3 - 2.33 million viewers Season 4 - 1.52 million viewers Season 5 - 0.96 million viewers Season 6 - 0.56 million viewers Season 7 - 0.42 million viewers
Ever since season 3, it had been having steep drops even with Roiland still involved; the season 6 to 7 drop is actually the smallest-percentage drop it's had since it started dropping, and if anything it's possible that changing the voice actors actually *boosted* interest a bit and prevented it from dropping even more.
