Disney's Adventure TV show in US?

Post by Starion »

Does anyone know if it is airing in the US? I think the show is being broadcast in the U.K, but I'm not sure.

According to TVTome.com, it began airing on April of this year.

One site says that it is showing on ABC on Fridays at 4:30 PM. I check my local TV guide, but ABC and the Disney Channel aren't showing it. At 4:30, Oprah Winfrey is on TV.

I found out about the TV show at:

There's no mention of it on ABC's daytime page, or anywhere on ABC's site.

My guess is this is gonna be something new for ABC Family?

I read on a Disney fan forum that the entry might be a fake. I couldn't find any information about "Disney's Adventuer." There's nothing on ABC.com :(

I did find the official website for the "Lilo and Stitch" cartoon series. :)

As I understand it, the term is just used as a generic name for a block of Aladdin, Hercules and Tarzan cartoons.
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

This really does sound either fake, or foreign. I don't understand what it is. Is it just recycling clips from Disney's past shows that they keep locked away somewhere instead of airing? It mentioned "Dinosaurs" in it's summary and lists Brian Henson as a producer. I am so confused.

I agree with you 100% Disney Guru it does sound fake.
I wonder why someone would lie like that.
On the other hand it would be cool to have a show like that. :wink:

If you guys really want fake, type in "Rough Crossing" at TVTome. A fan of Days of our Lives went a bit too overboard with his devotion. More than half the characters (and the town itself) was ripped off entirely from Days of our Lives. A couple examples:

Days of our Lives premiered November 8, 1965
Rough Crossing "premiered" November 8, 1997

DAYS is set in Salem
RC is set in Salem

Characters played by fake people:
Trista Alley - Billie Reed Trista Allen played Billie Reed from 1995-1999, and "Trista Alley" is a blatant ripoff of the name.
Hilary Andrea - Maggie Horton (1997-) Maggie Horton has always been played by Suzanne Rogers, from 1974-2003 (character was killed by a serial killer)
Jeff Argubright - Mickey Horton (2003-) Mickey Horton, played by John Clarke, had been with the show from day one. JC left in January 2004, due to health reasons, but Mickey had been recast with John Ingle from General Hospital.
James Flagg - Doug Williams #2 (2001-) Bill Hayes had played Doug Williams on and off since the early 1970s, only to be killed in February by the serial killer.
Bob Glasser - Roman Brady #3 (2002-) Roman Brady had been played by Wayne Northrup from 1984-1987, and from 1991-1996, then by Josh Taylor from 1997-2003. He was killed by the serial killer too.
Kail Harbick - Hope Williams Welch Brady Black #1 (2000-2001)/Princess Gina Von Amberg (2001) Hope had been played by Kristian Alfonso from 1982-1987, 1990, and from 1994-present. And Princess Gina Von Amberg was also played by her in 1999 and 2000.
Joe Healy - John Black (2003-) Drake Hogestyn has been John Black since 1987
Sharon Housen - Julie Williams #3 (2000-) Susan Seaforth-Hayes, wife of Bill Hayes, has played Julie since the early 70s.
Shana Lafferty-Chinn - Nicole Roberts (1997-1999) Nicole Roberts has been played by Arianne Zuker since 1997, and resigned her contract in February.
Karen LaVoie - Kate Roberts (2003-) Lauren Koslow has played Kate since 1997, previously played by Deborah Adair from 1992-1995/1996.
Edward Mallerie - Bill Horton (1997-1998) Edward MALLORY played Bill Horton throughout the 1960s and 1970s. He has not been seen since the early 90s, though.
Susan Moen - Marlena Evans Craig Brady Black (2002-) DEIDRE HALL has played Marlena Evans since the mid 70s (except for a 1987-1990 break). She's the serial killer.
Cindy Noblitt - Caroline Brady (1998-2004) Peggy McKay had played Caroline Brady from 1983-1984, then from 1985-2003 (killed by serial killer)
Rome Poracsky - Nicholas Alamain #2 (2002-) Nicholas Alamain was only played by Erik von Detten from 1990-1993, and by Victor Webster from 1999-2000.

They "claim" it's a local soap produced in Oregon (get it, Salem, Oregon?), bu there is no mention anywhere else except for the TVtome entry, and none of the actors or crew has done ANYTHING else besides Rough Crossing and other fake shows. This entry is definitely a laugh:

Ryan Koch:
Birthday: February 11, 1982
Birth Place: Portland, Oregon
Birth Name: Ryan David Koch

Crew Credits:
Rough Crossing (1997) - Writer
Rough Crossing (1997) - Executive Producer
Rough Crossing (1997) - Casting
Rough Crossing (1997) - Editor
Rough Crossing (1997) - Executive Story Editor
Rough Crossing (1997) - Camera Operator
Rough Crossing (1997) - Creative Consultant
Rough Crossing (1997) - Dialog Editor
Rough Crossing (1997) - Executive in Charge of Production
Rough Crossing (1997) - Head Writer

Acting Appearances:

Starring Roles
Rough Crossing (1997) - Kyle Black (1997-2003)

Guest Starring Roles
Tales from the Anti-Man - Soap Opera Stud Man - Nice Guys (2003)

Co Starring Roles
Rough Crossing - Kyle Black - Episode #1 (1997)
Tales from the Anti-Man - Soap Opera Sissy Boy

Movie/Mini-Series/Special Roles
Rough Crossing: Bloodlines (2003) - Kyle Black (Flashbacks)

How can a guy be all those crew credits, while having acted on the show as well for 6 years?!? That's definitely the best confirmation that this show is fake.

*And for awhile there was a blurb that Ryan Koch was the nephew of the deceased Ted and Betty Corday, who created Days of our Lives!*

Ahhhh, the spelling hurts my brain!!!! I think this was written by a very confused 10 year old. Anyone still get Disney Adventures (I cancelled my subscription years ago)? It might have something in it, who knows.

Spelling

Yeah Aaron we all make spelling mistakes once in a while even you!

It is the thought that counts.

Thank you for sharing that bucketload of info.

DisneyGuru- I was NOT talking about Escapay, give me more credit than that. I was talking about the link that this whole thread is about. The very one about which you said:
