The First Ever Disneyland TV Show

Welcome again, friends of Animan! Today we have some more YouTube goodies.

The first Disneyland TV Show was broadcast October 27, 1954. Just like Disneyland, it had 4 different sections: Fantasyland, Frontierland, Tomorrowland and Adventureland. Viewers could see scenes from the great Disney animated films, stories about American heroes from the Old West,  predictions for the future of space travel, and documentaries about people and places.

Compare this with the junk on the Disney Channel nowadays, and you'll see that the quality was much higher back in the beginning days of the Disneyland TV Show. 

This show has been divided into 6 parts for YouTube. Each section has something interesting. The show is in stunning black and white!

Part 1: Watch for Fess Parker, the actor who played Davy Crockett for Disney. HOT! 

Part 2: A Bullfight in Portugal--the bull is not killed, but tries to knock down a group of nicely-built toreros, and all of them are wearing nice, tight pants! Me Like-ee!

                        Part 3: A rare scene from "Song of the South"

 

Part 4: Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy in "Lonesome Ghosts"

Part 5: Mickey Mouse in "The Sorcerer's Apprentice"

Part 6: Previews of Next Week
