Friday was Talent-Round-up Day on the Mickey Mouse Club. This segment was usually followed by one or two performances by the Talent-Round-up winners. Many of these kids auditioned for the Mickey Mouse Club, and although they never joined the cast, they were invited to appear on the show where they received special mouse ears. Here is the Season 1 Intro and Roll Call... brought to you by Wheatie...

Karen has always been one of my favorite mousketeers, but I never realized Jimmy Dodd wrote a song for her until I found it recently on an old Mickey Mouse Club record. Enjoy!

During the Christmas Season of 1939, Shirley made her radio debut promoting her newest picture 'The Blue Bird.' In Shirley's autobiography, she recalls the event vividly. In the middle of the broadcast, a woman in the audience pointed a gun at her, intending to kill her in retribution for Shirley stealing her daughter's soul (she claimed her daughter died the same day Shirley was born). Shirley...

In 1935, Shirley Temple starred in the movie 'The Little Colonel' with Lionel Barrymore. Based upon a popular children's book series, Shirley and her retired colonel grandfather shared the same fierce temper, hence her nickname "Little" Colonel. This particular song was not part of the film; rather, it was created to promote it. The recording you are listening to is from a children's 78 record ...

For me, Elizabeth Taylor WAS Velvet Brown, and this is how I'll always remember her. Enjoy the movie National Velvet in four minutes.

By 1936, Judy had appeared in several short films, but Pigskin Parade was her first appearance in a feature length movie. In this film, she sings three songs: "It's Love I'm After", "The Balboa", and "Texas Tornado." Wizard of Oz fans will recognize Jack Haley, the Tin Man, in an early role of his own. This movie is available on DVD and airs often on television.

It's Darlene's turn to introduce the day's Mousekartoon with a little help from Cubby. This entire episode of the Mickey Mouse Club is available on DVD as part of Spin and Marty Disney Treasures dvd set.

Mickey and Judy's last movie together, Words and Music, features a song that was eliminated from one of their earlier movies. "I Wish I Were in Love Again" was originally written for the stage version of Babes in Arms but was not included in the 1939 film.

After Margaret's success in "Journey for Margaret," MGM cast her in bit parts in several movies while "Lost Angel" was being prepared for her. In 1943's "Madame Curie," she plays the title character's daughter, Irene. The role isn't large and doesn't showcase her talent, but the film itself was nominated for an Academy Award. Gigi Perreau plays her little sister Eve.

Avonlea.tv pays tribute to Jackie Burroughs who starred as matriarch Hetty King on the series Road to Avonlea. While other characters from the show were drawn from the works of Lucy Maud Montgomery, Hetty King was original, and Jackie's portrayal of the perfectly flawed school teacher garnered three Gemini awards during the series' seven year run. Burroughs passed away on September 22, 2010.

In 1955, the very first episode of the Mickey Mouse Club introduced the world to the "Merry Mouseketeers." The first week of the show was released onto DVD as part of the Disney Treasures series a few years back, and as someone who had only seen the show in the syndicated 30 minute editions, it was a real treat to see how much the show evolved over time. I wish Disney would release more Club re...

Linda and Don sing "Wonderful Day for a Picnic" with Annette, Bobby, Doreen, Lonnie, Cheryl, and Tommy joining them in this third season skit. Surprise! You can actually hear Cheryl in this for a few bars.

It's Linda Hughes's birthday, and the Mousketeers are playing a game of Mouseketurntoentertain. Bobby demonstrates the Super Goofy Shuffle, Lynn has solo tap number, and the entire gang dances together for the Donald Duck Walk. If you are curious, there are ten birthday candles on Linda's cake, but she was most likely eleven (or close to it) when this was filmed for the third season in 1957.
