Disney Television Animation (DTVA) is the television animation production arm of the Disney Channels Worldwide dedicated to creating, developing and producing animated television series, films, specials and other projects. Established in 1984 during the reorganization and subsequent re-incorporation of The Walt Disney Company following the arrival of then-Disney CEO Michael Eisner, the entity was formerly known as The Walt Disney Pictures Television Animation Group, the name was then later changed, shortened to Walt Disney Television Animation starting in 1987 and was its name up until 2011, when it has been shortened again to Disney Television Animation. == Background == The Walt Disney Company first ventured into the television industry as early as 1950, beginning with the one-hour Christmas special, ''One Hour in Wonderland''. This was followed by the 1951 Christmas special, ''The Walt Disney Christmas Show'', the long-running (1954–2008) anthology series, ''The Wonderful World of Disney'' (which was Disney's first regular series as a whole), the children's variety show ''The Mickey Mouse Club'', and the 1957-1959 adventure series, ''Zorro''. However, one element was missing from Disney's expansion into television: An original animated television series. Until the early 80's, the studio had never produced its own original animated shows in-house, because Walt Disney felt it was economically impossible. Nearly all pre-1985 TV animation was wrap-around segments made to bridge the gaps on existing theatrical material on ''The Wonderful World of Disney''. Osamu Tezuka met Walt at the 1964 World's Fair, at which time Disney said he hoped to "make something just like" Tezuka's ''Astro Boy'' someday, but unfortunately nothing came of it. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Disney Television Animation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
