TV ANIMATION - THE WALT DISNEY YEARS by Jerry Edwards
I consider the 1950s/1960s Disney anthology TV shows hosted by Walt Disney (Disneyland [1954-1958], Walt Disney Presents [1958-1961], and Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color [1961-1967]) to be among the best shows in the history of television. I especially love the animated programs - those containing a significant amount of animation. These TV shows often contain original made-for-TV animation that only appears in these shows. This research will cover the TV specials of 1950 and 1951, as well as the anthology shows of 1954-1967.
Note: If "None" is the info for the cartoons, animated film scenes, or original TV animation - that category will not be listed.
Special Note: In most cases, the programs I list are complete and uncensored. Later network repeats, video releases, and the Disney Channel have chosen to censor or just change many of the shows. Some programs I have may not be the original or be otherwise incomplete. I do not have and have not seen all the TV shows, but a large portion of the animated programs are inluded in this research. These shows are listed alphabetically. The cartoons listed are generally shown incomplete in these shows. The programs are in color, unless otherwise indicated.
AN ADVENTURE IN ART (4/30/58 ) Walt Disney talks about "what is art?" and explores whether creating silhouettes is "art". Black and white program.
Scenes from animated films: (1) Two Silhousettes - Make Mine Music [1946] (2) Trees - Melody Time [1948] (3) Preview of "Once Upon A Dream" scene - Sleeping Beauty [1959], including animated pencils of Aurora dipping her foot into a stream (4) Toccata and Fugue in D Minor - Fantasia [1940].
TV animation created: (1) Cave man tracing his wife's shadow on a cave wall. Funny joke is that the wife shifts her weight and hips, causing the shadow outline to make her figure look fat. She clobbers the hubby. (2) Figures on two Greek urns are animated so that they move - two figures do a modern dance on one urn and two soldiers fight on the other urn. (3) A person holds a snuff box with a silhouette of a head painted on it. The person sneezes, blowing the wig on the silhouette head so that the wig is turned backwards. The silhouette head moves and blows the wig back into place.

I find them very interesting and it's sad that the only ones that I have ever seen are the ones on the treasures DVD. It's also interesting that such informative shows were on network television. Now programs like these are only availble on PBS (I'm only talking about non cable channels since I don't have cable)

Show #7 of 107 shows.
The Adventures of Chip 'N Dale (2/27/59) Chip and Dale are greeted by a tape recording of Walt Disney's voice - explaining that, since he can't be there in person, Chip and Dale are the guest hosts. Chip and Dale do song and dance numbers before each story in a book filled with their adventures.

Dale keeps going to the end of the book for the "Lone Chipmunks" story but Chip keeps saving that story for the end of the show. (2) Chip and Dale sing and dance, then climb into their tree - leads into "Two Chips and a Miss". (3) They open the book to the story "Chip 'N Dale On Donald's Farm". They enter the farm, tiptoeing by short scenes from "Farmyard Symphony", and past Donald - sleeping in his room - leads into "Chicken In The Rough". (4) The ending of "Chicken In The Rough" is continued, with the rooster chasing them up an apple tree. Short scenes from "Farmyard Symphony" lead to Donald awakening - leads into "Donald Applecore". (5) Chip and Dale turn the book to "Chip 'N Dale On The Road". They sing and dance on the tape recorder - leads into "Chips Ahoy". (6) Ending of "Chips Ahoy" changed to show Donald chasing the chipmunks with a gun - scenes from "Old Sequoia" lead into "Up A Tree". (7) Chip and Dale are shown watching themselves on TV. They open the book to "The Lone Chipmunks" - singing and dancing leads into that cartoon. (8) Chip and Dale sing and dance as they climb back into the giant walnut shell.

At Home With Donald Duck (11/21/56) Donald's birthday is a disaster when he misunderstands his nephews' plans for his birthday gift. Donald tries to make up for his mistake by giving a party, but he and his nephews disagree over what cartoons to watch.
Cartoons: (1) Donald's Happy Birthday [1949] (2) Mickey and the Seal [1948] (3) Foul Hunting [1947] (4) Pluto's Blue Note [1947] (5) Sea Salts [1949].
TV animation created: (1) At the end of "Donald's Happy Birthday", the insect-sized Donald scurries around the yard and has to deal with an angry caterpillar. (2) A "conscience" duck character advises Donald to earn his nephews' forgiveness by giving them a party. But Donald wants to show his cartoons and the nephews want to watch Mickey and Goofy cartoons instead, and the Mickey Mouse Club. (3) Donald finally gets to show his cartoon by hosting it as part of the Mickey Mouse Club.
Note: My copy is not the original 1956 version of this program, since the Mickey Mouse Club segments are from the 1977-1978 Mickey Mouse Club. The show I have is probably the 4/4/79 show retitled "Happy Birthday Donald Duck". The Mickey Mouse Club segments are probably the only difference from the original show.

Yes, Chernabog, you are correct. This TV Animation research is several years old in some instances. I did notice that show on the Old Yeller DVD and it does appear to be the original show. I'll make corrections to my research on that show.Chernabog wrote::twisted:
The whole (and I think original) show of Best Doggoned Dog in the World is availible on the Old Yeller DVD.
Correct me if I´m wrong!
