Guest celebrities on "The Muppet Show", who also did Disney (part four)

My look at guest celebrities on The Muppet Show who also did things for Disney continues, with this second part of the second season. As always, I will not do every single guest celebrity, only those who have done significant things for Disney.
Up next, we have Dom DeLuise:

DeLuise's Disney credits were few but significant. He hosted on an episode of The Mouse Factory, about the great outdoors, and he voiced Fagin in Oliver and Company:

Up next, we have Bernadette Peters:

Again, her Disney credits are few, but still well-known. She played Cinderella's stepmother in a newer version of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella, which aired on The Wonderful World of Disney in 1997...

...and later that year, she would voice Angelique in the direct-to-video film, Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas:

Up next, we have Sir Elton John, who became a Disney Legend:

His most significant Disney credit was doing the music for The Lion King:

In the closing credits of the film, he sings a spirited rendition of "Can You Feel the Love Tonight", which sometimes plays on the radio to this day. Also, he appears in the TV special, Totally Minnie:

Up next after that, we have another Disney Legend, Julie Andrews:

Andrews is probably one of the most significant guest stars to have a Disney connection, playing the title character in one of Disney's most icnonic movies ever made, Mary Poppins:

Beyond that, Andrews also played Queen Clarisse Renalid in the Princess Diaries series...

...as well as narrated Enchanted:

And those are just some of the more well-known roles of Andrews'. That's all for now. Next time, I will wrap up the second season of The Muppet Show. Stay tuned.

Guest celebrities on "The Muppet Show", who also did Disney (part three)

My look at guest celebrities on The Muppet Show who also did some things for Disney continues. As always, I do not intend to do every single guest celebrity, only those whose Disney roles are in any way significant. The show's first season having concluded, I will now move on to the second season...

Season Two
The first episode of the second season has Don Knotts:

Knotts certainly has been in many Disney productions, mostly in the 1970s, including as Theodore Ogelive in The Apple Dumpling Gang and its sequel The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again...

...Wheely Applegate in Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo...

...Denver Kid in Hot Lead and Cold Feet...

...and, at the very end of his life, the voice of Mayor Turkey Lurkey in Chicken Little:

After that, there is Edgar Bergen:

Bergen and his dummies, Charlie McCarthy and Mortimer Snerd, have appeared in Fun and Fancy Free...

...as well as on the very first Disney television production, One Hour In Wonderland...

...and, very late in Bergen's life, they were on hand to pay homage to Mickey Mouse on his 50th birthday in 1978:

In addition, Charlie McCarthy was featured in animated form in two cartoon shorts with caricatures of movie stars. One was the Silly Symphony cartoon, Mother Goose Goes Hollywood...

...and the Donald Duck cartoon, The Autograph Hound:

Next up is Steve Martin:

Martin has had a long connection with Disney. One of his earliest jobs was working at the Main Street Magic Shop and learning comedy from Wally Boag of the Golden Horseshoe Revue. He also as one of the guest hosts in Fantasia 2000, introducing "Pines of Rome":

As part of Disneyland's 50th anniversary, Martin also hosted a film shown at the park to commemorate the occasion, sharing the spotlight with Donald Duck:

Up next after that is Madeline Kahn:

Although she has done very few things for Disney, she has done at least one significant thing, just before her untimely passing in 1999: providing the voice of Gypsy the gypsy moth of the Circus Bugs in A Bug's Life:

That's all for now. I will get to more later. Stay tuned.

Welcome back, Disneyland!

As of April 30th, Disneyland and the California Adventure has officially reopened (albeit only for Californai residents, for now)!

The parks are at 25% capacity as of late, but rumor has it that California will remove its reopening tier system should COVID cases remain low. Hopefully, then, such restrictions should be relaxed.

In any case, enjoy this video for the grand reopening ceremony:

Opening with the park is a brand-new Snow White ride which replaced Snow White's Scary Adventures. It's now called Snow White's Enchanted Wish:

Frankly, I'm not that sure what to make of it. In any case, enjoy this ride-through video, shown side-by-side with the earlier ride, and provide me with your feedback on it:

I will definitely be going back again soon, possibly sooner than expected!
