Mighty Ducks (also known as Mighty Ducks: The Animated Series) is an American animated television series that aired on ABC and the syndicated programming block The Disney Afternoon, the last show produced by the block, in the fall of 1996.[1] The show was loosely inspired by the live-action Mighty Ducks films and the eponymous National Hockey League team, the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, as well as the affiliate American Hockey League team, the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks.[2] Unlike the films and the hockey teams, the show was about a team of anthropomorphic hockey-playing ducks.[3]
Twenty-six episodes were produced in total.[4]
The series' main theme, composed by Patrick DeRemer, is performed by Starship vocalist Mickey Thomas.
