Hasbro is releasing two new Rapunzel dolls based on the TV series. The one is a standard doll while the other, called "Musical Lights" doll, lights up and sings "Wind in My Hair". The dolls are set to debut at the Toy Fair in New York on February 18 and will be available to purchase this fall.
Disney has released a music video for the song "Wind in My Hair".
Kait Ritter who boarded the sequence shared some of her work online.

Claire Keane's art is just adorable. I know there's a book about her original art available, but it also be cool if there was one that showcased the concept art she's made for the Disney films.
You guys seem to be mentioning Claire Keane a lot. Is she responsible for the look of the show? From the trailer, it looks just about as gorgeous as I can expect animation to look on a TV budget. I am truly and genuinely surprised, even I usually turn up my nose at "tweened" 2D animation. Disney Television Animation and Mercury Filmworks have really put together a looker here.

I don't think so, but she, Glen Keane's daughter, was responsible for some of the imagery of Tangled, including making the very art we see Rapunzel put in her tower. All of Rapunzel's art style is owed to Claire Keane.
very nice backgrounds! Yeah, I think were looking at a new golden age of Disney tv animated series, series actually based on Disney tv animated films, like they used to be in the 90s when we had the Little Mermaid, Aladdin and Hercules series, among others. We now have Tangled, Lion Guard and soon Big Hero Six and indirectly there's Elena of Avalor, though I know that's more a spinoff of Sofia the First. I wonder what the next Disney animated film to get a series will be.

Sorry for being off topic, but it's good to see new Pocahontas and Mulan dolls being released. I thought they were being more completely excluded from the franchise.
But the Beauty and the Beast dolls look cute. They hardly resemble Watson
The song "Life After Happily Ever After" from the TV movie is now available on Spotify, Amazon, iTunes, Google Play, Napster, and Tidal. Here are the lyrics for the song. A clip from the musical sequence has been released as well.
I like the first song more, but this one is not bad either. And I like that they keep the same style of the songs from the original film.
I'm quite excited for this. I liked the idea for the TV series since it was announced because that's how I imagined Tangled would end before seeing the film in 2010: Rapunzel and Flynn leaving the palace riding on Maximus and looking for adventures (with Pascal too, of course). And though the actual ending is good, I was a bit disappointed by it at first. I know that Rapunzel's parents deserve to be with their daughter after all these years without her, but I would have liked they had hinted that she was also going to explore the world and live adventures after being held captive all her life in the tower, and not just show her ending up in another "prison". So I like that this continuation will solve that issue I had. I'm also curious about the explanation for how her hair grows back. We already know it involves some magic rocks, but we don't know how and why it will happen. The sentence said by Rapunzel in that concept art by Claire Keane ("what are these rocks? And what is my connection to them?") left me intrigued.

I heard that after recording her lines for Rapunzel, she wasn't pleased with the results and wished she could have gone back and done them differently.

I thought it was well done, and a good setup for the upcoming series. There's going to be an ongoing mystery behind the original flower, which did not die with Rapuznel's hair...
