Glad to share. But it's funny that you think of this as the "good old days." It's very different for those of us who grew up with the original Wonderful World of Disney on NBC in the '70s. And the kids who watched Disney's Wonderful World of Color in the '60s would laugh at all of us Johnny-come-latelies.
Partyboy: The thing is...some of the new mellineum stuff (HM, HSM, SLoZ&C, et al) are not what I'd consider Disney. I consider Disney to be Mickey Mouse, the animated classics (although the animation department was TORN DOWN), and the real live-action gems like Mary Poppins.
Sorry, but there are those of of us who do beg to differ.
HM, HSM, SLoZ&C, et al ARE Disney, whether you like it or not. Things like those are the "magic of Disney" for today's youngsters and it'd be a major sin to try to rob them of that.
~and it'd be a major sin to try to rob them of that.~
Just as it was a sin for Mike Eisner to force Roy DISNEY to resign from his ancestor's OWN company because of Eisner being a corporate jackass, with his successor faring no better. Listen, Disney did well back when due to variety. Now, Disney lacks said variety, because all the shows seem the same due to using the same forumla...exploiting teens no one will give a crap about in a decade's time.
@JRS1982: The "most profitable" doesn't mean BETTER. Shilling out tween stars no one will give a rat's ass about in a decade's time is NOTHING when compared to the true CLASSICS that MADE Disney the institution it is. THAT is why all those reality shows and tween sitcoms can kiss my classic-loving backside for RUINING the company and what it once stood for. Same with Nickelodeon (aka The Spongebob + ICarly Network) and CN (airing LIVE-ACTION on "Cartoon" Network; WTF?).
@newcartoontv: Actually, it was Einser who began getting rid of what made Disney popular during the 90's Rennisance era by replacing it with the teen-oriented Z00G era that paved the way for the drivel we have now under Bob Iger, since Eisner hand-picked him as his replacement, to Roy Disney's chagrin.
@newcartoontv: Sadly, Roy himself passed away in 2009, so now, the company is without a Disney figurehead making sure everything goes according to Walt's vision. In fact, the CEO of the TV network was quoted in sayiing that The Disney Channel is not entertainment. It exists to generate money, which completely undermines Walt's intent of catering to all audiences, not just one demographic, and his notion of quality over quantity, or rather, effort over profit.
@TherealRNO she said it was going to be the main profit driver she never said it wasnt for entertaiment and even though the channel isnt every good the movie studio still follows walts vision so does the theme parks.plus the current presiendt robert iger bought the rights to oswalt the lucky rabbit back to the company and the head of animation john lasseter is working on mickey mouse and winnie the pooh movies
I can see where You Are Coming from there. But It is ALSO A Major Sin for Disney To Leave The Disney Theme Parks ALONE to carry on The True Magic of Disney That paved The Way for Today's Hannah Montanas,
High School Musicals, etc.
Like The Princesses, and ALL of The OTHER Animated Classics,
Mary Poppins, And The Music like The Mickey Mouse Club March, etc.
@disneynut06: They are NOT Disney. Walt would NOT approve of the same old formula with each "tween" veiwing and he himself said he would NOT go for modernism at the expense of losing audience members. In lament's terms, the company now is just in it for money by targeting the lowest demographic, whereas Walt has been quoted as saying, "I make money to create quality pictures, not create quality to make money. You're dead if you market only to kids, as adults are kids grown-up, anyway."
Fine, it was early 90s. But in that case, it was definitely not on CBS. In the early 1990s, Wonderful World of Disney was in first-run syndication. Between 1990, when NBC cancelled it, and 1997, after Disney bought ABC and resurrected the show, it was not exclusive to any network. It may have been on your CBS affiliate, but not on all. Hard to believe all your fevered research didn't bring that up. Do you still need to argue?
there is an album with this track?

True, but the 80s, 90s and even 2000s are our generation, so to us they are the good old days.

@TherealRNO Variety shows, for instance, are dead. The most profitable shows on TV: reality shows.
The past was better, by the way. I agree.

This was on CBS. I have "Mickey's Christmas Carol" on tape, and this was on CBS!

It's come to my attention that this is actually late 1980s, not early 1990s, and that it was NBC at the time, not ABC or CBS.
Macinvent 3 years ago
Well, you must sadly be mistaken.
1st: The Rescuers Down Under was released in 1990.
2nd: The man you see when the cymbals clash is Robin Williams (from "Dead Poets Society" which came out in 1992).
3rd: After the 1st commercial break on my tape, I saw the CBS eye "bug" on the screen, even if it was for a short time.
So, this is not from NBC late 80s (you must be confusing it with "The Magical World of Disney"). This is from CBS early 90s.

OK, maybe it wasn't on CBS. Somehow I find that hard to believe considering that I saw, I personally saw, the CBS eye bug on the screen on my tape.
Perhaps "The Wonderful World of Disney" that used this intro was an umbrella title shared by all the networks at the time.
