By the end of March 2000, Disney was in 35 countries in three regions, Latin America, Europe and Asia-Pacific (13 countries) with 82 blocks with more than 9,000 hours total per year. The block were under various names: Disney Club, Disney's FilmParade, Disneytime, Disney!, DisneyKid, Club Disney, Saturday Disney, Disney Adventures, Disney Animation Hour, Disney Fun Time, Good Morning Disney, Disney Hour, Disney Sandhya, Disney Toontown, Sunday Club Disney, I Love Disney, Disney Animation Time, Dragon Club (China).{{cite news|last1=Haman|first1=Andrea|title=Where the blocks are Majors' block-building global reach|url=http://kidscreen.com/2000/04/01/28599-20000401/|access-date=August 1, 2014|work=Kidscreen|publisher=Brunico Communications Ltd.|date=April 1, 2000}} A large number of these blocks served as international equivalents to The Disney Afternoon and Disney's One Saturday Morning.
