      I remember reading a story about Elvis, this was late-60s if i can remember.. so after his 50s fame (arguably his peak) and before the 70s fame (arguably his peak also) where he went outside where he was recording.. he began talking to an elderly woman , if i can remember correctly, the topic of Elvis came up, she had no idea that she was actually talking to Elvis. He walked down to the other end of the main-street, and nobody batted an eye at him. He went back inside the studio thinking his fame was all but gone

      ​@@amyrosethehedgehog6155 Walt's not necessarily Mickey's father. According to his wife Lillian Bounds-Disney, Walt & Mickey's lives closely mirrored each other's (seeing how Mickey was envisioned by Walt, originally drawn by Ub Iwerks, and later given realistic weight & movement through squash & stretch by Fred Moore [who also upgraded Mickey's design to be cuter by making him appear more rounded with larger more expressive eyes, rather than the classic pie-eyed look of the past that's since made a comeback courtesy of the Paul Rudish Mickey shorts], along with being given the name of Mickey instead of Mortimer [which was in itself used thrice over as the name for Mickey's rival, the name of Minnie's distant uncle, and even one of Mickey's twin nephew's legal first name would be Mortimer too, but everyone, including both Mickey & Minnie, call him Morty for short to avoid further confusion] by Lillian herself) & as many fans have come to define the partnership, Mickey isn't just a figurehead mascot nor is his all-circle head shape merely simply an identifiable logo for the company, Mickey is basically Uncle Walt's alter-ego.

    I’m 78 now and grew up with Walt Disney. I wanted to be a Mouseketeer more than anything in my life! My Dad, Bill Lee, was a member of the singing quartet called The Mellomen and they practically lived at the Disney studios creating voices for cartoons. I also had a lengthy studio singing career and was recording at the Disney studios the day he passed away. They canceled the session then. Many were the birthdays I spent at Disneyland and still love any excuse to go there. Rest In Peace, sir, and thank you for everything!

    This episode of What's My Line is pretty pertinent, given a few years later, in 1961, Walt Disney released 101 Dalmatians. In the film, Jasper and Horace are distracted from watching the puppies when the cat Sargant Tibbs locates them because the two crooks are watching a fictional game show called "What's My Crime?"
    Pretty obvious where the inspiration for that part of the film came from.

      JAY MORGENTHAL -The show actually began on ABC and was called Disney Land. The show moved to NBC in 1962 because Walt wanted the show to be in color and ABC didn’t. When it moved to NBC it was retitled, Walt Disney’s Wonderful World of Color. It was retitled The Wonderful World of Disney after Disney’s death in 1966.

      Indeed. It's just unfortunate that his memory has been left to the custodianship of a left wing culture that despises who he was. Walt was a businessman who wanted Disney to be a premier provider of family entertainment and at the forefront of technological progress. However, it has also become a company that actively advances radical far-left social causes that hate the country it was conceived within and hates the values that made its existence possible and beloved.

    I love What's My Line! The show is timeless and the panel was pure class.
    It was wonderful to see Walt Disney, and I was reminded that my cousin's uncle was one of the lead animators at Disney studios. When my cousin had her first child, her uncle made a little stool for him, and on the top was an authentic painting of Mickey Mouse! I also remember going to my cousin's birthday parties, at her uncle's home, where we would get to watch the latest Disney films before the public saw them. At the time, I don't think we were aware of how privileged we were. It was only years later that I realized how incredibly special these occasions were.

    I saw this when it aired. My family usually watched it every week. I was 7 years old, and my mother actually knew Walt Disney. She grew up in the same Missouri town that he did (Marceline, near Kansas City) and they were in school at the same time. Her father worked on the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which is said to have inspired Disney's love of trains. Main Street USA at the Anaheim Disneyland was modeled after Marceline's main street.

It is more precious now than it was many years ago, people truly care about the way they store their Vinyl collections but at the same time others wish to find a much simpler form of entertainment, with the click of a button.. Everything is made for easy access and because of that we are missing out in a way. The best thing to do would be to collect Vinyl and keep it alive, not that it's going away anytime soon but even DJs are now using CD/Digital turntables.

      In the late 1950s on Fridays he hosted "Walt Disney Presents" in the U.S. on the NBC network. In the early 1960s the show switched to Sunday nights and was renamed "Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color." There's an interesting story behind that. Grace Lee Whitney portrayed Yeoman Janice Rand on "Star Trek," which also was on NBC. Remember how colorful the costumes were on that show? RCA owned NBC -- RCA also made and sold color television sets, and wanted to sell people on how wonderful and lively color was compared to black-and-white. No doubt renaming Walt Disney's show was part of that.
      Not directly related: on the Disney cable channel I saw reruns of Walt Disney's "Zorro," which were colorized in 1992. Too bad Guy Williams never lived to see them; he died two years earlier.

    When I was 13 my family went on a 2 week vacation thru the southwest states & California! I'm 62 now & remember it like it was yesterday! My life dream! We were in Disneyland on the day they opened "It's A Small World" & they had a parade to open it! Walt Disney was in that parade sitting on top of the back seats of a blue Cadillac convertible! I still have my pictures of him waving to the crowds! 💖 I think it was less than a year later that he died. It was his last open public appearance. I was so very excited!

      In 1965 I was 8 years old and on the USS Independence ship moving with my family to Greece where my US Army Dad was going to be stationed there. I was in their movie theater with my 2 younger sisters watching a movie which included a Disney cartoon. A picture of Walt Disney was included at the start of the cartoon. When the lights came in and everyone stood up Mr. Walt Disney and his wife were standing right in front of me. I stood there with my mouth hanging open, too shy to say anything. I whispered to my sisters who he was. They didn't believe me. I told my Mom when we got back to our cabin and she thought I was crazy. A few days later she found out Mr. Disney and his wife WERE on our ship traveling to Italy for vacation. I will never forget that moment and wish I had said hello to him. Ironically I have lived in Orlando FL (only 8 miles away from the Magic Kingdom) for the last 20 years. He was a dream maker and a genuis. 🏰♥️👏

I live in the Inland Empire of SoCal and my Mom was lucky enough to not only be at the opening day of Disneyland, but rode in the front of Walt's train with Walt himself driving it. She and my family got to spend a lot of time with him and I still have a personalized autograph to my grandma hanging on my wall. I know he had issues, but in so many ways he has always been a creative idol of mine.

I swear that the TV now almost puts you in a relaxed trance, similar to what some sedative type medications/drugs do. The emotional aspect of this show is incredible to watch and to compare it to the similar types of shows on TV today almost depresses me in a way.. The laughter is real and so are the reactions, unlike anything on TV now
