Doug was an American animated series that originally aired on Nickelodeon, and starred 6th grader Douglas Yancey Funnie. Doug premiered on Nickelodeon on August 11, 1991, where it continued until December 16, 1994 and in reruns until 1999, being the first Nicktoon. The creator of the show, Jim Jinkins, named the main character Doug after his godson, Doug Eckhardt.[citation needed] The idea for "Quailman," an imaginary superhero which the main character Doug often pretends to be in the cartoon, was inspired by a similar superhero invented by Doug Eckhardt when he was younger. The original version was moved to Nickelodeon's sister-station Noggin, and later to Nicktoons TV, where it ended in 2005. These seasons were produced between 1991 and 1994. In 1996, Disney produced new episodes following its acquisition of Jumbo Pictures. It ran on ABC from 1996-1999, as part of Disney's One Saturday Morning block and on The Toon Disney Channel from 2001-2004. Disney's Doug also aired on UPN's Disney's One Too Weekday morning block from 1999-2000. Re-runs aired on The Disney Channel from 2001-2002.
