Mickey Mouse Club S2 - Fun With Music Day Roll Call 

I remember watching after school in the mid 1970’s and LOVELOVELOVED watching at the neighbors house with the kids in the neighborhood. Even that era had its charm. I wish there was innocence like this now for the generations to come because what I see on my Netflix when my 4 year old granddaughter visits and asks to watch, is just awful!! I have to turn most of it off. Our generations were blessed!! I wish this would become the norm again.

Do you recall the rise of rock and roll too? That was something Walt Disney struggled with coping

I will not say hold old I was, but you are older than I am.

I watched the reruns in the '70's too! I remember racing home from Catholic elementary school to watch the show! At first, I was unaware that I was watching a 1950's show! 😁

My dad and I have the same color circle like you do!

Karen has passed today. She sadly became paralyzed waist down from a car crash and became a psychologist for battered women.

That is the first time I ever heard this song.

I do not have a favorite Mouseketeer because they, all of them, were "excellent." Please stay inside during this quarentine as much as possible. ©® February 22, 2021 @ 11:00 pm ©®

Yes thank you Mr '' McCracken '' we could never decipher the impenetrable nature of these lyrics without you.

There was never a black or coloured mouseketeer. Walt would not allow it.

@@PreservationEnthusiast then go to other channels

@@psw4763 Ahhh you enjoy the whitewash then. Keep on taking the tablets and voting for Trump.

@@PreservationEnthusiast GOOD - Makes a nice change from all these POC shoved down our throats 24/7 on TV today.

@@voxtango1916 I have noticed that the TV is rammed full of PoC. I think that's going the other way. Positive discrimination which I don't agree with. Just have a mix of races which reflects the balance in the population. Everyone should aspire to that.

Dennis day as was killed by a handyman a few years ago.

So do I. It was one of the armors of my childhood.

@cathy smith It is with sadness that I have learned that after missing for about eight months, Dennis Day was found dead. He was 76.

Juliaflo They found A body at his home, but the identity of the body has yet to be determined.

​@@mickeymouseclubchannel9733 Update: Police have confirmed that the body of the person missing in an Oregon home was that of Dennis Day.

@cathy smith God as creator created the world and everything in it including homosexuality.

Same, he was gorgeous and you could tell he was a sweetie, so was Darlene. I loved Tommy's singing. They should have given him more solo singing roles.

i heard her she got that from her dad working at a salmon canning factory. (na, just practicing my cnn fake news)

This is exactly why I was so drawn to the show when I was growing up. It felt very slick, sophisticated & often times even catered to the parents of the children watching. I never felt like I was being spoken down to while watching the show, even during Jimmie’s “Doddisms”.

Joshua Reppert me too

Me three

Me four when I was a kid.

well, but it is wrong. It looks more like indonesian.

yea kinda, pretty much not many ways to say it

This was ripped from the Walt Disney Treasure’s Hardy Boys DVD set. It included the season premiere of the show’s second year, which introduced us to the Hardy Boys serial.

@@mickeymouseclubchannel9733 I actually found that out on my own, but thanks!

And yet people still want to be a Mouseketeer.

I, as an educator, respectfully disagree and am certainly not "whacked," as you put it. This footage did not age well and I'm thankful times are changing towards more respectful representation of cultures. Feel free to disagree, I just personally find it more enjoyable to have "fun" that doesn't insult or misrepresent people.

⁠@@RayTay02You may like to fancy yourself as an educator, but you are actually just a propagandist and a liar. That the footage “didn’t age well” is just more modern cuckoldry that you people push through your disgusting Education for Death programme. The footage is fine, you know it, you just can’t stand to see something that isn’t filled with talentless modern hacks hell bent on exhibiting their own mediocrity because they were cast into the role for a reason other than talent. Shame. On. You.

Bobby does a great dance # with a female partner on the Lawrence Welk show to the # Calcutta Welk's big million seller.

Yes! Their Calcutta dance was great.

I was never able to tell clearly, but considering he's missing in the other "foreign land" cutouts, my guess is that the boy is Tommy by process of elimination.

@@mickeymouseclubchannel9733 That was what I deduced too...but does not resemble him at all!

@@mickeymouseclubchannel9733 It is also interesting to note that 4 of the 6 girls in the "Foreign Land" segments have sadly died.

not bad they coulda did a kumg fu deal and a snake charming act

Exactly, I was going to say this particular footage didn't age well.

It’s an important part of history.

It's all good

cheaper as the one dude was music and dance instuctor off camera so 2 roles price of one. the roy dude was art/set director

Never knew this. Jimmie really seemed creepy to me. Roy was basically fun.

Unfortunately, a few of them have entered the pearly gates, particularly, Miss Annette Funicello.

.........And Hawai'i had not yet entered the Union.

its the 50’s babe, its never gonna be actual

Yeah I have that episode. I'll upload it along with the second talent roundup winner from that same episode whenever I can.

Prettiest !!

So were the continents of Australia and Antarctica......

Judith Yugar Australia isn’t a continent. It’s Oceania. Includes Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii (where Jimmie died), Fiji, Samoa, Paula New Guinea, etc

And had it not been, you would be on here shrieking that the Mouseketeers were in blackface~!!! Give your endless racism a rest, damn it.

@@voxtango1916 Right on!

@@sliat1981 Australia is the smallest of the world's continents. It is also the lowest, the flattest and (apart from Antarctica) the driest.

Looking "socially dated" and "a product of the times" are insightful and appropriate terms that you chose to use. But we all need to be careful not to imply something that may not be true. The fact that all the kids were "white" shouldn't automatically stigmatize those associated with the show as being some sort of "racists." Not implying that you're saying that (I don't think that you are) but some do. It was a different day back then, and having the show consisting only of white kids does not mean everyone related to the show purposely ostracized kids of other races; the thought of having the cast racially mixed probably never occurred to them. Just wasn't a major point of emphasis back then. Not saying that was right, just saying that what is emphasized today was not being emphasize 60 years ago. Simply put, I don't think that some sort of maliciously planned "racism" came into play when the casting of the kids took place. If it turns our that I am wrong, my apologies. By the way, kids of other races would be featured on the show later on (generally on "Talent Roundup Day"). Perhaps lessons were being learned. Proper change always takes time.

He was the only mouseketeer I met too. I was at his wedding day and watched him at the 1980 Reunion.

Milton Smith Two of the lesser known Mouseketeers (Mary Espinosa and the late Dickie Dodd) were Hispanic, while Mouseketeers Judy Harriet, Eileen Diamond, and Doreen were all Jewish. One particular Talent Round Up act consisted of three very talented African American Kids who, in those short 6 minutes, showed more talent and charisma than some of the Mouseketeers that were actually hired: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rs5PLySCxL4.html

While I appreciate diversity, I like the fact that this show was “whitebread.”. So clean and good-natured unlike the hip crap of our times.

What in HELL is wrong with "relentlessly whitebread?" No doubt you never resided in the US back in the 1950's when it was 96% WHITE and a HELL of a lot better than it is today.

I always thought Jimmie was even more creepy.

Context is the mid-1950s remember. It wasn't made last week.

Seems to me the real "appropriators" are those POC who have delightedly used all the wonderful inventions of the white man - such as electricity, motorcars and running water.

@@parati1309 men used to be allowed to rape their wife and its still rape so

Yes it is YOU! Give your OUTRAGE a rest.

@@voxtango1916 you didn’t invent anything, Cooter. You’re broke and stupid.
