Mickey Mouse Club: "Hap-Hap-Happy Snowman"

[MegaEvalee]

Can you put the whole spin and marty with Annette, and Darlene in it?

[storyjan]

@MegaEvalee Unfortunately, I no longer have the entire serial.  This particular VHS tape was lost in a move several years ago.

I just turned 18. I wish I had been born when T.V could be watched by everyone; when it was entertaining, and good, and clean, and taught you something. I love her outfit! It's as pretty as her! 

[tapdancegirl88]

i love to see her tap dance

[shilohrob]

Wonderful routine and anything with Annette dancing is great. Thank you for posting it. It brings back the few goods memories I have of that time of my life.

[jonsaguard]

I'm sure he was a very happy snowman when he saw Annette in that outfit!

[gidgetgal34]

[yermom1355]

who was in the snowman outfit

[ShanaKelley]

Ambitious was the snowman! haha

[OsmondFan08]

Anette is a very talented dancer

[jensmom604]

Bet those two old geezers are getting a kick looking at sweet young Annette!

[samkpanthers]

We are singing this my school and i like it> im in ^th grade and that dress is totally inapropriate for a girl a girl that age

[MGR1900]

There was nothing wrong with her dress. Maybe your dirty mind is actually seeing more than is there.

[MGR1900]

It's something a ballerina would wear. I'm all for modesty and all and I would agree with your mom on that point but if that outfit is wrong then most of what ballerinas wear would be inappropriate. I don't think something like that would be appropriate for school but there is nothing wrong with what she is wearing in that setting.

[belizeambushgal]

trust in those day's she had on a flesh tone top.

PEACE.

It was the 50s. People were totally innocent back then, nobody thought about that.

b(^b^)d

Personally, I think there was resentment on Darlene's part towards ANNETTE, because I think DISNEY STUDIOS originally were going to launch Darlene as a solo artist, but ANNETTE received the most Fan letters, so the powers that be concentrated more on her. So, I think it would be natural for a bit of rilvary to occur between Darlene & ANNETTE.

[blondex21]

the last I heard of Darlene she was arrested for armed robbery, things never went right for her,,actually the prettist mouseketeer

was Cheryl, but she lacked that star quality Annette had...

[maliwyoming]

Darlene had her own serial on the MMC. All I can remember of it i think is that it had a white dog in it as her pet, I guess, It was set in the country somewhere, mountains and woods.

[dianarigg]

Was that Corky and White Shadow?

[mony2k6]

Where did you get the clips from the New Adventure of spin and marty? I have been looking for them everywhere.

[themoonspinner]

Darlene told a magazine in 1963 that whenever she would go to grown up parties, all anyone would ask was questions about "the Mouse show". She went to nursing school and tried to put it behind her, but even at her hospital they teased her. Poor Darlene.

[Free411]

[Free411]

[tapsara8it]

Oh my goodness I remember this clip...thank you for posting this it really brings back allot of wonderful memories! I also remember every night after school watch the Mickey Mouse Club....beautiful memories beautiful days...you can really see the innocence here. Thanks again for posting this wonderful clip!

[BerryBlogBooky]

I never understood the end...

[storyjan]

In this episode of Spin and Marty, Ambitious (the snowman) was smoking a pipe. Disney didn't want to encourage smoking among children, so Ambitious became sick afterwards, much in the same way Shirley Temple became sick after smoking a peace pipe in "Susannah of the Mounties." Incidentally, wasn't it Darlene who encouraged Ambitious to smoke in the first place for the play's "authenticity"?

[Free411]

who plays ambitious?

[gregsmithers]

Annette still looks (and has the voice of) a little girl, while Darlene looks old enough to be Annette's mom, despite being only 1 1/2 years older. Loved them both when I was a kid.

[fromthesidelines]

Annette's specialty was ballet. Whenever possible, she demonstrated her abilities in special "CLUB" production numbers, personal appearances with the other Mouseketeers, and this production number from the final "Spin & Marty" serial in 1957.

[RainyMarch]

Very nice. Thanks for posting. I remember watching the Mickey Mouse Club every day after school. Loved it.

[sallie6]

Annette Funicello - she was such a great performer and I still enjoy seeing her and thanks to youtube it's possible.
