You’d think someone who lived in the Magic Kingdom wouldn’t need a vacation, but that’s where you’re wrong. Being happy all the time has its limits, and sometimes you have to go to the old swimmin hole to relax.

That’s the premise of the soon to debut Mickey Mouse short “The Swimmin Hole’, which will kick off Season 4 of the Emmy-winning short films. The short features best buds Mickey, Donald Duck, and Goofy as they all anticipated relaxing at their favorite watering hole. The only problem is, Pete has other ideas.
Rufus is of course always looking to cause problems for Mickey, and it will take the three Disney favorites to stop him and return their lovely spot to its rightful place.
The Mickey Mouse short films have won numerous awards, and the newest season looks just as delightful. The premiere actually takes place on June 9th, which is also Donald Duck’s birthday. Can’t think of a better way to celebrate it.

With the slapstick feel of classic Mickey Mouse and contemporary direction and pacing, the multiple Emmy and Annie Award-winning “Mickey Mouse” cartoon shorts present Mickey in a broad range of humorous situations that showcase his pluck and rascality, along with his long-beloved charm and good heartedness. Produced in 2D animation, the design esthetic reaches back to Mickey’s roots and borrows reverentially from the bold style of his 1930s design, but not before adding a few contemporary touches.
Season 4 of the Mickey Mouse shorts debuts on the Disney Channel Friday, June 9th at 12:27 pm.
