Favourite Episode: "I Had a Dream"
I also remember watching this one a quite a bit growing up, however when re-watching I did not recall any of episodes. I would say this was one of Disney's better animated series as well. They even go their own movie, and a revamp with The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder - which is retconed to take place in the 2020s, and was also pretty decent.
I had also watched through That's So Raven last year, so I instantly recongized Orlando Brown as one of the voice actors in this show (he did not make a return for Louder and Prouder). One thing that I picked up during my watchthrough of Proud Family was that it seemed to contain quite a few more 'adult' jokes, at least ones that I was surprised to hear on a Disney show. There are also a TON of guest stars throughout this series (and a lot of other Disney cartoons). The jokes and guest stars are a couple reasons why I love this show so much.
I said that "I Had a Dream" was my favourite episode in this series mostly because it shows off something I feel like is not seen too much in modern childrens cartoons, touching on different Historical/Cultural, or other 'tough' subjects (admittedly, I do not watch any but have heard Bluey is good in this aspect). So additional Kudos to the show for keeping the same energy with the Louder and Prouder.
