Disney releases new Mickey Mouse short 'No service'.



Just a few days before the new Mickey Mouse shorts start airing on Disney XD (June 28), the company decided to release another full episode on the web. 'No service' is the 2nd short, as Disney already released 'Croissant de Triomphe' earlier in March, this one however also features Donald Duck.

I've heard some complaints on the web about these new shorts. I don't know what the budget is, but, beside the fact that the style is of course very different from the classic animated shorts, some feel these are put together in a hurry.

What's more important to me than the artwork however, is character development. This is only the second short and already I'm seeing stuff that, although funny, just doesn't feel fitting character wise.This one includes a naked Mickey and some fun about his 'buns', and Goofy kicking Donald (not by accident).

It's summer, so it's fitting this one takes place on the boardwalk. The short is of course very hip and funny, so follow the link below to watch 'No Service' or hit the link above to view the first one.
If you're into classy looking, masterfully animated shorts, you can of course always just pop in a DVD at home. Watch Mickey and Donald in 'No Service' by following this link!

Update 30/06/13: Episode three, 'Yodelberg' has now officially aired. You can watch it online. Episode four, which will air July 5th, has also been made available online already, check it out here:  'New York Weenie'.
