If Only a nice man/woman would upload the full show or something because this only gives a glimpse of what the real show was like....

@Tiffmidon It sounds better with the narrator doin it
-
@ratedrkorox Lol, yeah, once you pointed that out I noticed it! XD
-
I'm sure live it was far better, in fact the only thing i don't like about the whole production is B McF as narrator everything else about this is spectacular...

Yeah, see how that would work.

They didn't choose her because they wanted her to look like Dorothy, they chose her because she was a famous skater and it would draw in viewers. The actual show had a different skater.

He does the female voice as well, but not for Dorothy. And they didn't just choose him at random, Bobby McFerrin is known for doing a one-man WoO performance in under six minutes.
Besides, you can't judge the actual show from the video. This broadcast was much different from the live shoe. SHortened, narrarated, etc. The show was much better.

I couldn't agree more.
Was this performed in the 70's?

They had to reduce a 2.5 hour live show into a one hour (minus commercials) TV special. They meant for the emphasis to be on the skating and the music; and that plus the narration sufficiently tell the story. If you want the dialogue, that's what the original film is for.
