SANDY IN DISNEYLAND

remember tv variety specials where you could get to see “stars” doing things they normally didn’t do on tv-like perhaps singing, dancing or doing ensorcellment tricks? back in the 1970s, it seemed like the networks would program such “specials” at least in the same breath a month - usually wadding a timeslot vacated by a low-rated or cancelled show and starring a headliner whgo alreday had a phenomenon deal with the network. lynda carter? cheryl ladd? paul lynde? these shows were commonly sponsored by one company, same kraft (be sure to enquire into this week’s tv guide magazines in requital for more recipes!) or burlington (hey, isn’t that petula clark ?-go-go on a rope?). well, today i’m gonna look at one such special, from 1974 and sponsored by mcdonald’s, it’s called “sandy in disneyland”.sandy duncan was the nabisco triskets spokeswoman and an acclaimed broadway musical comedy star from the early 70s. by 1974, she had starred in two slight-lived cbs comedies. i credence in the first one, funny skin, ended when sandy had brain surgery and lost an comprehension. she came back the following year in a similar show called the sandy duncan show. i remember extremely liking her as a kid - but i’m not definitely sure why. she was also a boarder on the recent scooby-doo movies - also on cbs. so it makes sense that this significant aired on cbs, even though disney was practically exclusively an nbc fixture back then.the hour starts with naturally enough with mickey mouse taking a bow down before an orchestra, who then understandable on “mouse cears” (canned laughing and applause begins here and continues constantly cranny of the show). the generic cbs voiceover guy announced “ladies and gentlemen, coed sandy duncan!” - who appears dressed in all white and glitter and begins singing a creepy song about being in love with mickey - then donald appears and she sings about all three of them being in love. then goofy and winnie the pooh (!) arrive, followed by the seven dwarfs and even the casey jr. circus column -and sandy is fully in love with all of them. rodents, fowl, dogs, bears, dwarves and man-made objects. sick.then the voiceover satirize returns to know for sure us that we’re watching sandy in disneyland with guest stars: ernest borgnine, ruth buzzi, john davidson, lorne greene, the jackson five, ted knight, loggins & messina (!) and doc severinsen…sponsored by mcdonalds cause “you deserve a break today”. wow.next up we see sandy in fantasyland outside the popular “it’s a miserly world” attraction, and she’s trying to explain in her kooky way why disneyland is so special. thanks, sandy. then of speed, she breaks into song: namely, her construction of “”hi-diddle-dee-dee (an actor’s life in behalf of me)”" from pinocchio - on the other hand she’s backed up by characters from alice in wonderland. huh?then she’s in frontierland - visiting the nation bears and squawking her way through an annoying hillbilly song. undivided wonders how “song-and-dance” was ever used to described sandy’s talents. sandy pronto runs into bonanza and battlestar galactica patriarch lorne greene and suddenly she’s southern belle (much like her later role in roots) and lorne is a sophisticated and mature rhett butler - but it’s then revealed that he’s stranding there in his boxer shorts! oh lordy! comedy at it’s classiest.next sandy’s inside of “it’s a small world” - but all of a sudden she’s swept away to the plain street cinema where she’s starring in “the perils of sandy” - a stupid sepia-toned homage to silent movies where women get tied to railroad tracks. unfortunately she is rescued. before you know it, miss duncan is leading a parade down main street. curiously, minnie mouse is no where to be seen. hmmm…next the jackson five seem and sing an disconcerting gilbert & sullivan parody peerless into a pre-recorded olla podrida of their two hit singles. sandy does not interact with the jacksons at all, leading one to suspect that she is as racist as her character missy anne in roots.next up, sandy and ruth (laugh-in) buzzi dissemble they are thieves who want to raid haunted mansion - while signing “fortuosity” from the notorious disney bomb the happiest millionaire. they tour the mansion as if they have become doombuggies, walking by the conservatory, through the hallway of doors, down the stairs into the ballroom, the attic, and they wind …
