Walt Disney began hosting his own television show for ABC in 1954 in an unusual contract: Disney provided ABC with a weekly hour-long television program in exchange for funding for the construction of Disneyland. As a result, the television show was also originally named Disneyland. The anthology series has since gone through a number of name changes over the years: Walt Disney Presents, Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color, The Wonderful World of Disney, Disney's Wonderful World, Walt Disney, The Disney Sunday Movie, and The Magical World of Disney. The series spanned an incredible 54 years—13 seasons of which were hosted by Walt Disney, himself.

The third of five programs about Davy Crockett involves him, Georgie and a riverboat gambler they meet searching for a new adventure, which leads them to the Alamo, which they must defend.

  • History records that "Travis" was always first in command, while Bowie was always second. Aside from that, thanks for posting this Disney classic and "REMEMBER THE ALAMO"!

  • @LATVERIAN1 You're welcome :)

  • That depends on the specific VHS. These Davy Crockett episodes have been edited and re-edited several times over the years to adapt them for feature length theatrical films, as well as to utilize remaining colour elements when the episodes reran on television in the 1960s and 70s. What you see here is the original 1955 cut of the episode.

  • Why wasn't some of this footage in the VHS?

  • If I had to guess, I would say the old Mexican man said "Those guys need all the help they can get; let us pray for the brave but foolish Gringos"
