The article says that the series "ended for good," but doesn't ABC (now owned by Disney) show it on Sunday nights now? I'm sure I see it advertised weekly. —Frecklefoot 19:08, 5 Nov 2003 (UTC)


Does anyone know if Michael Eisner does actually present the show? If so, who will present the show when Eisner leaves Sept 30? Surely not Bob Iger? --Speedway 16:53, 17 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I seem to remember "The Wonderful World of Disney" was on CBS in 1990. (They were showing "Mickey's Christmas Carol" and had a commercial for Beethoven. The CBS "bug" was on the screen, too.) Am I crazy?

What I mean is, my mom taped "Mickey's Christmas Carol" a long time ago. The opening sequence had Mickey painting with magical paintbrushes and a lot of things. All during that sequence, an orchestral mix of "When You Wish Upon a Star" and "Part of Your World" was playing. Then, the title appeared. After a Donald Duck cartoon, I caught those dogs barking out "Jingle Bells" while I saw the Universal logo. After that, Mom cut through the commercials. When she did that, I saw the CBS "bug" at the bottom while everyone looked at a brown photo of some of the Disney gang singing Christmas carols. I think at the end of the movie, there was a preview of "The Nightmare Before Christmas". I also saw on the same tape the beginning of the same sequence with the ABC "bug". Am I crazy? Sorry for the long message. 71.111.209.99 15:04, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Man, I just don't get it. I don't get it. Does anyone know about this? I'll have the link for an example in a minute. Ah, here it is. Now, the open I saw was much longer and had clips from Honey, I Shrunk the Kids and was flying over Disney-MGM Studios. It was also titled "The Wonderful World of Disney". It also didn't have the live-action 101 Dalmations and Toy Story clips (instead, Roger Rabbit and 3 Men and a Baby). Now can you see what I'm saying? Thank you. 71.111.232.40 20:18, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're probably right. Say, you can help contribute to this article. Would you mind helping add on to it, tregoweth? 71.111.232.40 13:13, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Videos

Look under the external links banner. I put up some video opens through YouTube. I hope you enjoy them. 71.111.232.40 20:54, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, who took the videos down? 71.111.232.40 22:17, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody's explaining why they put down the videos. I'm not going to hurt you or anything. Just please tell me what's going on. Thank you. 71.111.232.40 19:25, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How? As long as they don't know about it, we're clear. I bet Disney's lawyers really don't care. 71.111.232.40 00:02, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I put them back. Please do not touch. I put in a good 15 minutes doing this. Thank you. 71.111.232.40 00:05, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What I meant is originally. 71.111.232.40 00:06, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How could it not be legal? Nobody uses them anymore. 71.111.232.40 01:52, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Whether they're being used or not, the programs (and their openings) are still copyrighted material, and whoever posted them to YouTube did so without Disney's permission. Disney could bring legal action against YouTube for hosting it, and possibly Wikipedia for linking to it. You may want to read Wikipedia:Copyrights for more information. —tregoweth (talk) 03:29, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Friend, I took 2 classes in Computer Applications. I know a lot about copyright law and the fair use policy. Are we out to make a profit? No. Are we entering a contest? No. So, as far as I'm concerned, we're OK. 71.111.232.40 23:22, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • No offense, but taking those classes doesn't make you a lawyer. :) Fair use is pretty complicated, and in lieu of expert legal advice, it's usually best to err on the side of caution. —tregoweth (talk) 04:27, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Article name

I've been thinking that the article should be renamed to something like "Disney anthology TV series"—it's not strictly a Walt Disney (the man) series, and the title currently doesn't indicate what kind of series it is. Thoughts? Comments? :) —tregoweth (talk) 02:02, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
