List Of Disney Television Films
Beginning in the 1950s, The Walt Disney Company began producing made-for-television films in their long-running anthology series ''Disneyland'' (later to be popularly known as ''The Wonderful World of Color'' and ''The Wonderful World of Disney''). Many of Disney's TV movies were miniseries that aired in installments over several weeks, and a few (such as ''Davy Crockett'' and ''The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh'') were later re-edited and released theatrically. During the 1980s, in addition to films made for their weekly TV series, Disney began making original films for their television network, The Disney Channel. After the acquisition of ABC in the 1990s, Disney began co-producing uncharacteristic films (Stephen King's ''Storm of the Century'', ''Home Alone 4'') as well as TV reunion movies (''The Facts of Life Reunion'', ''The Growing Pains Movie'') and a few in conjunction with Hallmark Entertainment (''Dinotopia'', ''Mr. St. Nick'', '' Snow White: The Fairest of Them All''). ...

The Walt Disney Company, commonly known as Disney (), is an American multinational mass media and entertainment conglomerate headquartered at the Walt Disney Studios complex in Burbank, California. Disney was originally founded on October 16, 1923, by brothers Walt and Roy O. Disney as the Disney Brothers Studio; it also operated under the names the Walt Disney Studio and Walt Disney Productions before changing its name to the Walt Disney Company in 1986. Early on, the company established itself as a leader in the animation industry, with the creation of the widely popular character Mickey Mouse, who is the company's mascot, and the start of animated films.

Johnny Tremain (film)
''Johnny Tremain'' is a 1957 American adventure drama film made by Walt Disney Productions, released by Buena Vista Distribution, and based on the 1944 Newbery Medal-winning children's novel of the same name by Esther Forbes, retelling the story of the years in Boston, Massachusetts prior to the outbreak of the American Revolution. ''Johnny Tremain'' was the first Disney live-action film to be directed by Robert Stevenson. It was made for television, but first released to theatres.

After its theater run in 1957, the film was shown in its entirety on television in two episodes (in color, then known as ''The Wonderful World of Disney''), rather than as a complete film on a single evening, on November 21 and 28, 1958.
