Orange County is the third most populous county in the State of California.  It is famous for tourism, Disneyland and the Crystal Cathedral.  It should be no surprise that many residents are looking for ways to have a strong, white smile.  Some are looking to porcelain veneers to make that smile a reality.

Porcelain veneers are an artificial covers that is used as a restorative material or replacement material for natural enamel.  Porcelain veneers are custom made to fit each individual patient.  These covering are one of the most recent developments for cosmetic dentists to use to create smooth, natural smiles.

Not every situation will call for porcelain veneers.  It is important that you find a cosmetic dentist that will evaluate your situation before proceeding with the creation of porcelain veneers.  The natural enamel usually has to be removed from your own teeth to apply the porcelain veneers.  This means that the procedure is often permanent.  There may be some other alternatives (like whitening) that should be tried first.

Using Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers can be the right choice in situations where there are minor tooth imperfections or defects. Porcelain veneers can be used to close in gaps between teeth. Porcelain veneers can be used to restore a fresh, white smile when whitening procedures do not work or are not possible. Porcelain veneers can be used to reshape problem teeth.

Porcelain veneers are not covered by most dental insurance policies so you will need to put financing into place before beginning the procedure.  There are a number of benefits to using porcelain veneers for creating that smile that you have always desired.  Porcelain veneers are more natural looking, they are stronger and more durable, and the procedure is often relatively painless.  Orange County porcelain veneers may be one of the easiest ways to have that bright California smile.

A vacation to Walt Disney appeals not only to children but adults as well. It can become a memorable experience for everyone since there is always something for everyone and this is probably the biggest reason for its popularity as well as why the families continue to visit there even after being there several times over the years. It is essential not only to reduce the resulting financial burden but also to ensure that you get the most out of the time there while on Disney vacations. You have to consider doing a plan well in advance if you are seriously thinking of Walt Disney vacation. To help you understand what a Walt Disney vacation is all about you can do a research online. Walt Disney World Vacations are very pricey and it is an important thing to keep in mind. However the prices differ depending on the time of year you want to travel and Disney is busier at certain particular times of the year than others.

You should choose to go to Disneyland or Disney World during the off-season and this way you can also book a vacation right on Disney’s website. Special Disney vacation packages which include airfare and hotels are offered by the other online travel sites. There is always a good deal to be found for a bargain hunter regardless of whether you travel during peak seasons or not since Disney land and Disney world are such hot vacation spots. However it is better to travel during the less busy times whenever possible.

The feeling of Disney vacations always remains unique every time even though you have visited there a number of times. You can also keep a lookout for Disney anniversary specials and with just a little planning you can enjoy great saving deals on your next Disney vacation as well.

Walt Disney’s Imagineering Legends and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park


$21.74

Fifty years ago, Walt Disney utterly transformed the concept of outdoor entertainment venues from tawdry carnivals and seedy amusement piers called “amusement parks,” to an entirely new destination that would come into common vernacular as the “theme park.” Although Disneyland was the inspiration of one man, Walt did not achieve this history-altering concept on his own. Using his innate talent for combining disparate skills and personalities, he assembled a creative team that blended imagination with engineering. Walt called this group his “Imagineers.” Walt Disney’s Legends of Imagineering and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park introduces a core group of the originators of Disneyland and the other Disney parks. It explores their individual relationships with Walt and each other, their creative breakthroughs and failures, and their rivalries and professional politics. This candid narrative of their lives and contributions to a very special form of entertainment illustrates why, half a century later, their work continues to be vital and important to millions of people every day, and all over the world. Lavishly illustrated throughout with rare and never-before-seen artwork and photographs, Walt Disney’s Legends of Imagineering and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park will further enrich the reader’s appreciation of the exceptional talent behind Disneyland’s creation and ongoing evolution. >>Read More

Disney Grad Night began in 1961 as a celebration for high schoolers to celebrate their graduation at Disneyland. Disney now holds the celebration at Disney World allowing other high school seniors to celebrate their graduation with live music and other fun activities. Grad Nite is well know for the talented musicians that puts on special shows for the celebrating graduates. This amazing event has featured a number of different performers including notable names like: Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Destiny’s Child and the Backstreet Boys.

During the last three years, the celebrations at Disney Grad Nite have featured quite a few notable perfomances. In 2006, there were some major performers on board for Disney Grad Nite, such as:Omarion, Fall Out Boy, Simple Plane, Frankie J, Teddy Geiger, and Fefe Dobson. Cassie, Mario Vazques, Cartel and The Fray celebrated with the seniors two years ago. The feature talent in 2008 was Ne-Yo, famous for the songs “Closer” and “Miss Independent.” In addtion to Ne-Yo the 2008 celebration also feature The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Cheskob, and The Last Goodnight.. A new precedent for entertainment was set in 2009 when the even was hosted by a celebrity. The whole night was hosted by Hayden Panettiere establishing a new era for entertainment and celebrity cameos. Hayden wasn’t the only celebrity to make a surprise appearance. Jaslene Gonzalezfrom America’s Next Top Model, and Paula and Ryan from MTV’s The Dual 2 also dropped in on the event. In addtion to the celebrity guest appearances, Grad Nite also featured their traditional music acts including: Katy Perry, Lloyd, Metro Station, Mishon, The White Tie Affair, Lesley Roy, and Wynter!

This celebration always features the hottest recording artists of the year making it an unforgetable event.. Famous artists and surpise celebrity appearances make every celebration unique, and begs the question of who will appear this year? Expect the best and the most popular singers popular on seniors ipods. Taylor Swift has been all over the radio waves, same goes for the Black Eyed Peas. Grad Nite often delivers the person of the moment so the featured acts may not have even been discovered yet! Will we see an established group, like Kings of Leon currently famous for the hit “Use Somebody?”. Kelly Clarkson, would be a possible performer as well since she has recently released her new CD, All I Ever Wanted. Since she was voted by America to be the American Idol of 2002, she has been tearing up the charts and could be a front-runner to be a performer at Disney’s Grad Nite. Only time will tell of course, but seniors no matter the performers, get ready to get your groove on!

Walt Disney Treasures – Disneyland – Secrets, Stories & Magic (Collector’s Tin)


$129.90

On July 17 1955 Walt Disney opened the gates to Disneyland(R) the beloved American icon that has become a cherished destination for generations. It was also the day Walt’s sixteen-year dream came true. The centerpiece of this volume is a captivating and nostalgic film that takes you inside that dream. Rare archival footage new interviews with key people and Walt’s own words reveal how his innovative vision became a reality. Then discover more Disneyland(R) secrets with a fun-filled trivia game and relive the magic of the recently restored PEOPLE AND PLACES: DISNEYLAND U.S.A. presented in CinemaScope with a new 5.1 audio mix. Featuring exclusive introductions by film historian Leonard Maltin this is a timeless collection from generations past for generations to come.System Requirements:Running Time: 332 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY Rating: NR UPC: 786936702057Originally conceived as a fiftieth anniversary tribute to Disneyland, this 332-minute DVD set celebrates Walt Disney’s vision and drive in imagining, building, and marketing America’s first-ever theme park. This compilation offers fascinating insight into Walt Disney’s enormous undertaking through the documentary “The Secrets, Stories, and Magic of Disneyland,” the retrospective “Operation Disneyland,” three episodes from “The Wonderful World of Color” television series, one “People and Places” episode, and a collection of historical time-lapse construction footage from Disneyland in Anaheim, California. Leonard Maltin and Julie Andrews provide an introduction to the 80-minute “Secrets, Stories, and Magic” which details Walt Disney’s initial vision for Disneyland, considered to be “Walt’s Folly” by many Disney Studio employees, and the various stages of the park’s planning and construction culminating in its grand opening on July 17, 1955. Extensive new and vintage footage address virtually every aspect of the conception and realization of Disneyland from the original site plan and concept art to the tight construction schedule, logistical problems during construction and on opening day, the development of new enhanced motion vehicle technology for the rides, and the shelved ideas that make up the “Disneyland that never was.” Extensive interview footage includes Walt Disney, George Lucas, Roy Disney, artist Herb Ryman, retired president of Disneyland Jack Lindquist, composer Richard Sherman, and many others. After an interactive Disneyland trivia game that’s none-to-easy even in the beginner mode, it’s on to a restored version of the 1956 “People and Places: Disneyland USA” episode which highlights Walt Disney’s goal that Disneyland serve as a place of enlightenment, happiness, and the pursuit of fun and takes viewers on a slow-paced exploration of the five areas of Disneyland. Modern audiences might be inclined to condemn this particular feature as a 42-minute-long Disneyland commercial, but in 1956 it functioned more as an exploration of a distant place that many around the world had never had the opportunity to visit. Disc two begins with “Operation Disneyland,” a 14-minute black and white documentary produced for ABC closed circuit television which looks at the technical aspects of broadcasting the opening ceremonies of Disneyland on live television. Never intended for public viewing, the program offers an interesting and historically valuable look back at the mechanics of live television in the 1950’s. Next are three episodes of Walt Disney’s weekly program “The Wonderful World of Color.” “The Golden Horseshoe Revue” features the 10,000th vaudeville-inspired performance at Disneyland’s The Golden Horseshoe Saloon with Betty Taylor, Wally Boag, Gene Sheldon, Ed Wynn, and former Mickey Mouse Club Mouseketeer Annette Funicello. “Disneyland Goes to the World’s Fair” details Disney’s contributions to the New York World’s Fair of 1964-1965 including the creation of “It’s A Small World” for UNICEF, “Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln,” and the “Primeval World” audio-animatronic dinosaurs currently on exhibit in the Disneyland Railroad. “Disneyland Around the Seasons” celebrates Disneyland’s 11th year with a look at special holiday programming at Disneyland. Finally, footage from several time-lapse cameras scattered throughout Disneyland during the park’s construction is presented with narration by Tony Baxter from Disney Imagineering, and Ed Hobbleman and Walter Magnuson from the Disney Studio Inventory Group. Just about everything one could ever want to know about the history of Disneyland is right here in this thorough Disney collection. –Tami Horiuchi >>Read More

Sing Along Songs – Disneyland Fun


$7.57

Sing, dance, and play along with your favorite Disney songs! It’s fun and easy as you read the on-screen lyrics and join your favorite characters in their most memorable musical moments! Sing along to the happiest songs on earth at the happiest place on earth — Disneyland! Your host, Mr. Owl, invites you to celebrate a musical day with all your favorite Disney friends. Join Mickey and Minnie for fun and thrills as they hustle and bustle behind the scenes at the park! Then get a front-row seat on some of the wildest rides, like Star Tours, Splash Mountain and the Matterhorn, with Chip ‘n’ Dale, Roger Rabbit, and a Magic Kingdom filled with sing-along adventures.It’s easy to see why this is one of the bestselling sing-alongs from Disney: it plays like the ultimate family-vacation home movie. Instead of fleeting glimpses of your favorite characters on your home videos of Disneyland, this 27-minute episode showcases Mickey, Goofy, Pluto, and their friends hanging out with kids inside the Magic Kingdom singing (well, their lips don’t move) such popular songs as ” Zip a Dee Do Dah,” “It’s a Small World,” and “Step in Time” with the lyrics appearing on screen for youngsters. The one drawback is the video was shot in 1990, so none of the newer rides are shown, and worse yet, some older rides seen aren’t around anymore (“Mom, why didn’t we go on the submarine?”). Perhaps that isn’t a drawback since, despite the age, and some truly unknown songs (“Making Memories”), the program continues to be popular. –Doug Thomas >>Read More

Walt Disney Treasures – Disneyland USA


$28.87

A special presentation of four Disneyland television specials – The Disneyland Story, Dateline Disneyland, Operation Disneyland, Disneyland After Dark – plus The Disneyland 10th Anniversary Show, all originally broadcast between 1955 and 1970, and hosted by Walt Disney himself. Also includes additional archival footage of Disneyland’s opening day and other rare materials. Introduction by Leonard Maltin. To finance Disneyland he wanted to build, Walt Disney turned to the new medium of television. As host Leonard Maltin notes on this two- disc set of televised specials for the amusement park, Disney used the series to promote it, “and no one seemed to mind.” ABC agreed to invest in return for a weekly one-hour program. The “Disneyland” TV show premiered on October 27, 1954: “Disneyland Story” introduced the park and its various lands, which would be the subject of future programs. The opening-day special, “Dateline Disneyland” (July 17, 1955), attracted an estimated audience of 90 million–virtually every television household in America. Hosted by Art Linkletter, Robert Cummings, and Ronald Reagan, the live broadcast includes such unplanned moments as Linkletter searching frantically for a microphone in Fantasyland. The Tenth Anniversary show (January 3, 1965) features cameos of Mary Blair and Marc Davis, two celebrated animation artists. Home movie footage of Walt pacing off distances at the barren site in Anaheim is intercut with peeks at forthcoming attractions. “Disneyland After Dark” (April 15, 1962) offers performances by Annette Funicello, Bobby Burgess, Bobby Rydell, Louis Armstrong, and a prepubescent quartet of Osmond Brothers. A must-have set for Disneyland buffs, Disney collectors, and nostalgic baby boomers. –Charles Solomon >>Read More

]]> http://dreamdisney.com/2010/02/eurostar-london-paris-train/feed/ 0 Diabetes – The Number Three Cause Of Death In The U.S.A. Facts to Consider http://dreamdisney.com/2010/02/diabetes-the-number-three-cause-of-death-in-the-u-s-a-facts-to-consider/ http://dreamdisney.com/2010/02/diabetes-the-number-three-cause-of-death-in-the-u-s-a-facts-to-consider/#comments Tue, 02 Feb 2010 16:08:42 +0000 Donald Duck http://dreamdisney.com/2010/02/diabetes-the-number-three-cause-of-death-in-the-u-s-a-facts-to-consider/

First of all it should be pointed out that Diabetes mellitus is a group of diseases with the common characteristic of high blood sugar levels. You should also| know that diabetes happens when the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin or in the case that the insulin that is produced in the pancreas cannot work adequately.  The truth is that  when diabetes is not controlled in a proper way, it can cause serious complications and premature death.

All the time health professional are asked about individuals[ coming in to have routine  health checks just to learn to their surprise they have Type I or II diabetes. For example| thirty year old John was admitted for sores all over his body for simply walking all day at Disneyland with his family and then he was told he had acute diabetes and needed to be in a wheelchair.

 The point is that nowadays with continued rise in the number of people diabetes in the United States is alarming. The most terrible part about it is that many people like John do not even know they have it until it is too late. You should also know that there are nearly 21 million people in the United States alone that have diabetes and most of them type 2. This represents about 7 percent of the population and it is worth to pay attention to the fact  that according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) more than 6 million of these people do not know they have the condition.

In addition there is a need to add that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that another 41 million people are estimated to have pre-diabetes. Pre-diabetes is a condition that is developed before type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is the third leading cause of death in the United States. As a matter of fact in 2005 alone 1.5 million individuals aged 20 years or older were newly diagnosed with diabetes.

Most people who get diabetes are told by their doctor to start taking diabetes pills or medications and go on a diet. The doctor hands them a diet to stick to, they try it out, then it often  happens that they can’t get motivated and when hungry they go out and have some pizza and beer.

The problem is that people are often not  informed about such facts like that diabetes is a leading cause of adult blindness, lower-limb amputation, nerve damage and kidney disease. It should be also mentioned  that this could lead to even more complications and death for sure.

You should also know that most people getting diabetes are in the 40s, 50s and upwards but in today’s fast food world both children and adults even in their teens and early 20s and 30s have it or are going to end up with this  deadly| disease.

It is necessary for each person to understand that there is no magic pill that will save them from getting this disease for which there is no known cure for. You should keep in mind in mind that there are only a few  ways treat diabetes: control high blood pressure, reduce cholesterol levels and quit smoking because these key factors will really help reduce the risk for developing diabetes.

In “The Art of the Show” and “The Art of Color,” Hench reveals the essence of what makes the parks work so well.

The Official Album: Disneyland/Walt Disney World


$84.95

Naturally, the music’s good for reliving memories of the parks, but when listened to at home, the best selections reveal previously unnoticed complexity. The oldest recordings, like “The Tiki Tiki Room” and “Grim Grinning Ghosts” (from the Haunted Mansion ride), are seamless show tunes that grapple inventively with the limitations of analog and mono. And the Main Street Electrical Parade theme song is a freaked-out Moog marathon that must be heard to be believed.

]]> http://dreamdisney.com/2010/02/citrus-county-real-estate/feed/ 0 Reasons to Invest in Florida http://dreamdisney.com/2010/01/reasons-to-invest-in-florida/ http://dreamdisney.com/2010/01/reasons-to-invest-in-florida/#comments Sun, 31 Jan 2010 04:52:37 +0000 Donald Duck http://dreamdisney.com/2010/01/reasons-to-invest-in-florida/

Florida has long been a preferred investment and re-location destination for North Americans along with buyers from around the world. As an investment location, Florida offers a wealth of attractions to buyers. The economic crisis has drawn additional interest into Florida’s real estate market amongst investors in financially stable positions for purchasing in the current economic climate.

As it is considered that the US real estate market has now reached its lowest point following around 2 years of falling house prices, the future signifies growth potential offering mid to long term investors with exceptional gains. The opportunities to obtain fantastic bargains are drawing growing numbers of foreign investors to the Florida real estate market. Some of the main reasons why Florida holds such a strong appeal as an investment location are outlined below.

Florida is an Established Real Estate Market

Fewer risks are associated with real estate investments in established markets as opposed to newer, emerging markets, although this security is often accompanied by higher property prices. The recent downturn of the US real estate market has created a unique position for investors, featuring some of the lowest property prices seen in years. These bargains have created an established market where the cost of housing is mirroring some emerging markets.

Additional security to buyers from an established market is the highly developed purchasing processes and availability of financing opportunities. Despite the tightening of lending criteria for real estate financing, mortgage availability in Florida is often more readily available and easy to obtain compared with other US states.

Taxation advantages also abound in the state of Florida, where benefits are geared towards investors providing housing opportunities to the high demand from the local population. The tax advantages geared towards buy-to-let investors is an additional benefit when calculating returns on the investment.

Florida has a Strong Economy

The strength of the local economy provides additional stability for Florida, where the local economy is considered to be one of the most advanced in the entire country. The diversity of the economic activities across the state extends well beyond the tourism sector, with transportation, construction, education, healthcare and business facilities producing excellent overall results with economic growth.

Political stability combined with lifestyle advantages draw many highly educated professionals to Florida.  The professional workforce assists to continuously improve the service sectors, creating strength in the local economy to weather financial storms that are strongly affecting other areas of the country.

While the dollar currency may have lost considerable strength against others such as the Euro or Sterling, this situation generates added appeal to foreign investors entering the market. Along with the availability of many genuine bargains following the real estate downturn, the weakened position of the US currency creates additional attractions to foreign investors.

Florida Features Excellent Buy-to-Let Opportunities

Investors are keen to take advantage of the excellent buy-to-let opportunities in Florida, enabling the additional benefit of having a holiday home in one of the worlds most sought after destinations. The attraction of the Disneyland brand has greatly assisted in the appeal of Florida to holiday makers, which can be seen clearly from statistics by the World Tourism Organisation.

The WTO states that Disney attractions account for 4 of the top 10 most visited in the world. Many of the world’s most famous cultural attractions such as the Egyptian pyramids or India’s Taj Mahal barely squeeze into the top 50 most visited. For investors, this statistics clearly show the appeal and demand of locations such as Florida for buy-to-let opportunities.

Aside from Disney, Florida features the excellent weather and reasonable proximity to many major cities in both North America and Europe. Golfing holidays hold strong appeal and the relaxed yet sophisticated cosmopolitan city atmosphere, surrounded by appealing beaches, continue to entice a large sector of the world’s tourist market.

Florida Provides Steady Capital Growth Potential

When comparing a real estate investment to stocks and shares, any downturns in the market occur with considerable less severity. Viewing how Florida has fared overall following the past 2 year downfall in the real estate sector, investors are continuing to consider entering the market, as Florida’s position has fared considerably better than the country as a whole. The future outlook for real estate in Florida almost guarantees a steady growth market, providing good capital returns and yield potential for early investors.

Previous growth of the Florida real estate market can provide investors with an impression of the market’s growth potential for the coming years. Coupled with the currency exchange rate advantages to foreign buyers, any strengthening of the US dollar will provide further growth on investments.

Government integration by assisting the stability of the real estate market, along with encouragement towards foreign investment, provides further security ensuring future growth potential of the market. Reforms to the financial lending sectors will assist with increasing stability to guard against future severe falls in the market, adding to long term growth potential and stability.

Florida Features Multiple Exit Strategies

The strong and continuous demand for real estate in Florida provides an ideal position to buyers when considering their exit strategies. Foreign investors are at a distinct advantage as improvements in the country’s economic issues over the coming years will draw additional buyers to re-enter the Florida housing market.

The population growth rates of Florida are amongst the highest across the country, with over 350,000 people moving to the state annually. For all types of real estate, the demand is strong in Florida. While the recent downturn has created an optimum buyers market opportunity, long term investors will benefit from the inevitable turnaround when the economy improves and the sector switches to a seller’s market, as it has been for many years in the past.

Prices are set to rise in Florida, providing a low risk investment in a highly sought after established market. The financial benefits of investing in Florida real estate are abundant, along with the opportunities for growth, returns and lifestyle opportunities. Buy-to-let investors benefit from year-round opportunities from the domestic market, while short term lettings provide returns for around 9 months of the year, considerably greater than many other holiday letting investment markets.

Walt Disney’s Imagineering Legends and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park


$21.74

Fifty years ago, Walt Disney utterly transformed the concept of outdoor entertainment venues from tawdry carnivals and seedy amusement piers called “amusement parks,” to an entirely new destination that would come into common vernacular as the “theme park.” Although Disneyland was the inspiration of one man, Walt did not achieve this history-altering concept on his own. Using his innate talent for combining disparate skills and personalities, he assembled a creative team that blended imagination with engineering. Walt called this group his “Imagineers.” Walt Disney’s Legends of Imagineering and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park introduces a core group of the originators of Disneyland and the other Disney parks. It explores their individual relationships with Walt and each other, their creative breakthroughs and failures, and their rivalries and professional politics. This candid narrative of their lives and contributions to a very special form of entertainment illustrates why, half a century later, their work continues to be vital and important to millions of people every day, and all over the world. Lavishly illustrated throughout with rare and never-before-seen artwork and photographs, Walt Disney’s Legends of Imagineering and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park will further enrich the reader’s appreciation of the exceptional talent behind Disneyland’s creation and ongoing evolution. >>Read More

101 Things You Never Knew About Disneyland: An Unauthorized Look At The Little Touches And Inside Jokes


$14.00

You have probably heard a few “interesting facts” about Disneyland over the years. Perhaps you’ve heard that Walt Disney kept an apartment on Main Street? Or that there is a secret, members-only club in New Orleans Square? It’s all true… but these are only two of the interesting facts pointed out in “101 Things You Never Knew About Disneyland.” Many of the stories here deal with more obscure, yet equally interesting, histories of Disneyland. In fact, the majority of the material comes straight from interviews with the Imagineers who helped to build, maintain, and revitalize Disneyland. The book pays special attention to the inside jokes and hidden references to Disneyland’s past, as these samples illustrate: Do you know which play on words pays tribute to a former Mexican restaurant at a certain site? Do you know how Tarzan’s Treehouse honors its predecessor in two different ways? Do you know what is so unusual about the decorations atop “It’s a Small World”? Do you know why one palm tree in Adventureland is special? Do you know what the sign says at the bottom of Splash Mountain’s big drop? Do you know which pumpkin is an homage to a Disneyland official? It’s a certainty that you haven’t heard all these stories before. Although there are 101 such highlighted stories, each comes with a fuller description and is followed by a second story that is thematically related, so this volume really offers 202 Things you haven’t heard about Disneyland before. You will find these facts delightful and unforgettable once you’ve heard them! >>Read More

Walt Disney Treasures – Disneyland USA


$28.87

A special presentation of four Disneyland television specials – The Disneyland Story, Dateline Disneyland, Operation Disneyland, Disneyland After Dark – plus The Disneyland 10th Anniversary Show, all originally broadcast between 1955 and 1970, and hosted by Walt Disney himself. Also includes additional archival footage of Disneyland’s opening day and other rare materials. Introduction by Leonard Maltin. To finance Disneyland he wanted to build, Walt Disney turned to the new medium of television. As host Leonard Maltin notes on this two- disc set of televised specials for the amusement park, Disney used the series to promote it, “and no one seemed to mind.” ABC agreed to invest in return for a weekly one-hour program. The “Disneyland” TV show premiered on October 27, 1954: “Disneyland Story” introduced the park and its various lands, which would be the subject of future programs. The opening-day special, “Dateline Disneyland” (July 17, 1955), attracted an estimated audience of 90 million–virtually every television household in America. Hosted by Art Linkletter, Robert Cummings, and Ronald Reagan, the live broadcast includes such unplanned moments as Linkletter searching frantically for a microphone in Fantasyland. The Tenth Anniversary show (January 3, 1965) features cameos of Mary Blair and Marc Davis, two celebrated animation artists. Home movie footage of Walt pacing off distances at the barren site in Anaheim is intercut with peeks at forthcoming attractions. “Disneyland After Dark” (April 15, 1962) offers performances by Annette Funicello, Bobby Burgess, Bobby Rydell, Louis Armstrong, and a prepubescent quartet of Osmond Brothers. A must-have set for Disneyland buffs, Disney collectors, and nostalgic baby boomers. –Charles Solomon >>Read More
