Write a forum convo in early 2010 where least 7 of these idents are back on Disney Channel Spain (but modified with the 2002 logo), Also programming wise there is EVEN MORE Hannah for whatever reason, also Chaotic has moved here from XD. A user asks if the Ribbon idents are still there or gone
DisneyFan1992: Hey everyone! Noticed something cool on Disney Channel Spain lately. They’ve brought back some of those classic idents from 1999-2003, but now they’ve updated them with the 2002 logo. Anyone else seen these?

MagicMouse: Yes! I caught the Chrome Blob and Basketball ones just yesterday. They still have that funky charm, just with the updated logo spinning in. Were there others brought back?

DisneyFan1992: For sure! I’ve also seen the Laboratory, Discoball, Paint Blob, Purple Blob, and Spinning Top idents so far. They’ve done a neat job integrating the newer logo.

EuroToon: That’s awesome! Those idents were my childhood! But does anyone know if the Ribbon idents are still playing? I haven’t seen any today.

CartoonCraze: I think the Ribbon idents might be phased out. I’ve been watching for a couple of weeks now and haven’t spotted any. Seems like they’re really going nostalgic with the old-school stuff.

HannahFanatic: Speaking of updates, has anyone noticed even more Hannah Montana episodes airing? It’s like every time I switch it on, it’s playing! Not that I’m complaining, haha.

ChaoticFan: And did you all hear that Chaotic moved here from Disney XD? I’m curious to see how it does on Disney Channel. Hopefully, it brings more viewers to the show!

MagicMouse: I’m all for the nostalgia, and Hannah is always a win. Just wishing Disney would mix it up a bit more. How about some reruns of other classics?

PixelPerfect: With all these changes, Disney Channel feels pretty dynamic again. I just hope they manage the mix right so every type of fan finds something to enjoy. And yeah, more variety would be great!

DisneyFan1992: Agreed! Anyway, I’ll keep an eye out for more of those old-new idents and let you all know if I catch any others. Keep the channel tuned and let’s keep this thread updated with any new finds!
Write a convo asking if the a continuation/ahora: (show name) bumpers still use Ribbon era BGM or has that changed, Also incidentally the Ribbon is now nothing more than a pres style, considering it isn’t being used in the idents anymore
DisneyNostalgic99: Hey fellow Disney enthusiasts! I’ve been loving the return of the classic idents on Disney Channel Spain. Does anyone know if the continuity/ahora bumpers are still using the Ribbon era background music, or has that changed too? Also, it seems like Ribbon is just a presentation style now since they aren’t using it in the idents anymore.

ToonTracker: Noticed that too! From what I’ve seen, some of the bumpers still have the old Ribbon era BGM. They’ve probably kept it for brand consistency. But yeah, the actual Ribbon visuals are pretty much gone from the idents, just part of the channel decor now.

ClassicCartoonFan: I caught a bumper earlier and it totally had the old BGM. Seems like they’re keeping bits and pieces of the Ribbon era, but not fully. I guess it’s a way to bridge the old with the new? Also, loving the updated idents vibes!

DisneyFan1992: Great observations! It’s interesting to see how they’re blending the nostalgic elements with the current style. I wonder if they plan to phase out all Ribbon elements eventually or just keep them subtly in the mix.

ChannelChanger: Does anyone miss the full Ribbon era theme, or are you all good with the direction Disney Channel Spain is heading? Personally, I’m enjoying the nostalgia trip with these old idents coming back, even if they’re slightly tweaked.

RetroToonLover: As much as I liked the Ribbon style, I’m actually quite excited about the nods to the past. There’s something special about seeing those classic idents modernized. However, it would be cool if they did a “throwback hour” and brought the Ribbon style back fully for nostalgia’s sake!

DisneyNostalic99: Thanks for the insights, everyone! Maybe they will consider our feedback for more nostalgic content. I’ll keep an eye and ear out for any more changes in the bumpers and let you know if they switch things up more drastically. Keep watching and sharing your finds!
Write a follow up asking what ident era music is used on the Chaotic next/now bumpers, does it use Ribbon music or Circles/Hidden Mickey music
