Walt Disney once said that a man should never neglect his family for business. Disney has long explored the theme of family in many of its shows and movies. For example, Lilo & Stitch is a film that explores this theme with its iconic line: ‘Ohana means family.’

The upcoming Disney film Freakier Friday continues this tradition of exploring family dynamics by examining the relationship between a mother and daughter. Speaking of family, National Siblings Day is on April 10, which means social media will be flooded with social posts with #National SiblingsDay tags on pictures and videos that people post of their brothers and sisters.

National Public Radio even did its own reporting discussing the impact of National Siblings Day. Disney Channel has its fair share of exploring the dynamic of siblings in its shows. Here are 6 Disney Channel shows featuring iconic sibling duos that helped define the 2000s.

Disney's beloved cartoon Phineas and Ferb follows the titular brothers, voiced by Vincent Martella and Thomas Brodie Sangster, as they vow to spend each summer off from school inventing extravagant new things, breaking records, and going on wild adventures. All the while, Phineas and Ferb's pet platypus, Perry, is living a double life as a secret agent constantly battling the dimwitted wannabe villain Dr. Doofenshmirtz (Dan Povenmire). The gag is, the boys' mother is constantly aloof to her sons' adventures.

Even after a number of the show's other characters learn of the brothers' fantastical adventures, the boys' mother, Linda Flynn-Fletcher (Caroline Rhea) continues to live in her own world. The Phineas and Ferb matriarch is often spotted spending time with their dad and on the phone with her friends. When the boys cover up some of their rule-breaking ways, she typically buys into their excuses but come on, she should have known better.

Phineas and Ferb co-creator Dan Povenmire took to Instagram to announce a long-awaited update for fans of the Disney Channel animated series that ran for four seasons from 2007 to 2015. The first episode of Phineas and Ferb season five is officially in the can! Povenmire wrote on his post from Oct. 2. The post shows a group of people all cheering and giving thumbs up in front of a screen with the shows logo.

The series, which follows step-brothers and their adventures during their 104 days of summer vacation, was created by Povenmire and Jeff Swampy Marsh and consists of 129 episodes.
