I agree that the show should have aired later in the day, probably between 4 PM and 5 PM , the show had a lot of talent and should have been in production longer than it was, 6 months was not enough time for it to catch on.
hm. I was glad I was a kid for the 90's MMC when I first started playing this, but after that dance I gotta admit it probably woulda' been kinda fun watching this as a kid! ;p
I love this song and dance number! good thing I have the song on record so I can listen 2 it anytime i want. Now if only DISNEY would put this (and the rest of the show) out on DVD....
I had the soundtrack,the '70s era mouse ears,(colored,not the standard black. mine were blue)the lunchbox,the TV Guide cover they did....i was all about TNMMC!
Oh wow. Does this bring back memories. I was 8 years old when the NMMC debuted in 1977. The problem was that the local tv station aired it on the weekdays around 2pm in the afternoon and school didnt let out until 3pm. So the only way I could see an episode here and there was if I was sick, on vacation, or cut out of school early. I think the ratings would have improved if they only aired it at a better time when we kids could see it. And I had the maddest crush on Kelly!!! (who didnt?)
My friends and I liked Julie Piekarski most of all. We thought she was the "best overall" and liked how she wore her pretty blonde hair in banana-curl pigtails. Watching these clips now, it's easy to see that Julie was FAR and away the best dancer of the group. Kelly Parsons, who was beautiful beyond her years, was our second favorite. Remember how different & 'glamorous' she looked on the album cover compared to her appearances on the show?
WOW! I watched these as a kid! I had the Soundtrack album! I haven't seen these in 30 years! This is the coolest thing I ever saw! I even remembered some of there names and the words to the songs. Do you have "Surprise day"? it was my favorite, it was on Wednesday. Thank You So much for these. I got to return to my childhood for a while.
This was first seen on the November 1976 "WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY" show promoting the new "CLUB" {via color kinescope}- this was seen from time to time during the regular series...
i loved this mmc and i did get beat up at school alot, bully's take al the fun out of life as they try to set their own ways being the only way.sad that people don't live and let live and have to jump on people's case because they're different.
@ivegottaheadache I figured as much. Thank you for the confirmation! :-)

Notice how Kelly is unable to lip sync the word mousekedance in full. She gets out the first part: "Mouseke", but doesnt mouth the last part, "dance"

This has to be the most embarrassing dance ever! I applaud the Chinese kid for actually having rhythm though!
