Disney Channel Original Movies

Disney Channel Original Movies or DCOM (formerly known as "Zoog Disney Channel Movie") is any movie that is produced under the Disney Channel canon. They have been made at a rate of at least once a year since 1983. The first Disney Channel Original Movie was the movie Tiger Town.
This is a list of movies produced for the U.S. cable channel Disney Channel. Such movies are currently called Disney Original Movies, as of March 2023. They were previously known as Disney Channel Premiere Films since October 1983 and Disney Channel Original Movies (DCOM) from October 1997 to September 2022.
At their peak, the DCOMs were released at a rate of approximately one per month, although this trend has slowed to an average one every two months. Although in the summer, it's about three movies in three months usually for some marathon or theme they have celebrating summer. Most hit films are subsequently released on home video.
Starting April 5, 2021, Disney Channel has started doing a DCOM & Dessert event every Monday where Disney Channel stars, old and new, all watch a DCOM along with a special dessert or treat based on the movie. This event went on every Monday at 7:00 PM until May 24, 2021. The movies apart of this event included The Proud Family Movie, The Cheetah Girls, Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century, Kim Possible Movie: So the Drama, Cadet Kelly, High School Musical, Smart House, and Camp Rock.
