Episode 003: What Foolishness Would You Like to See?
"It's time to get things started" with Scott and Tracey! This episode,
we devote two segments to a discussion of how the Jim Henson Muppets
have become a part of the Disney family.
In segment one, we talk about Muppet*Vision 3D, a wonderful 3D movie
attraction found in both Walt Disney World at Disney's Hollywood
Studios, and at the Disneyland Resort in the Hollywood Backlot section
of Disney's California Adventure. We talk about the buildings, the
pre-show and the show itself, sharing some Disney Details and audio
clips.
Buzzy, the DJ at WWED Radio plays a couple of Muppet covers of Disney songs:
Next, we discuss a show we caught on the local public-access TV
station, WDTV: "The Muppets at Walt Disney World". In this one hour
special from 1990, Kermit and the gang run amok through the 3 Florida
theme parks. We play a couple of audio clips from the show as well. See
if you can ID the "guest star" who duets with Kermit!
We wrap up the show with listener feedback from our previous Question
Time, and pose a new theme-related Question for our listeners. We hope
to meet a couple of you next weekend at the DIS Boards Meet at the
Hamilton County Fairgrounds in Noblesville, Indiana!
