I saw this aired on The Wonderful World of Disney a few nights ago...and i must admit that it was a rather boring special, except for the very funny Danny Kaye, most of this was just crappy singing (with preformances by the osmond brothers and michael jackson before he got weird). Danny Kaye portrays About 6 characters (by my count) in explaining to a grandson (played by Joey Lawrence) how much fun disneyland is. Danny also does a few songs and stars with another actor in a funny sketch about two cowboys doing a gunfight. And judging from the crowd response to this sketch...it was safe to say that Danny still had it in 1980. overall, a pretty good showing by Mr.Kaye
