As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

[TheKennedyMachine.]

Walt's successor in the original American Magic was his nephew Roy E. Disney.

Then after Roy retired there was a revolving door that included Barry Diller and Jerry Bruckheimer before Zack Snyder took over towards the end of the TL.

Around the same time Zack Snyder took over the Disney company, Sam Register hopped on board to oversee the animation assets.

What happened to Eisner?

What happened to Eisner?

Eisner took over ABC, for whom he was head of children's programming in the Seventies IOTL.

ABC then bought Hanna-Barbera. Then they merged ABC Motion Pictures with AVCO Embassy to form that TL's version of Touchstone.

[Light_Star 1]

@OldNavy1988 May I recommend some changes to the Ducktales series so that Huey, Dewey, and Louie actually have more of their own distinct personality? More along the lines of the 2017 reboot?

 

[TheFaultsofAlts]

1: For the record, I didn't come up with all of these. Although I am wondering how people reacted to Fox's lineup in particular.
2: Since HB has Gummi Bears and Fraggle Rock: TAS on NBC's lineup, shouldn't that extra Smurfs episode be swapped with the first half of the SMB/Metroid Hour? I say this because it doesn't look like an hour-long presentation.
3: I take it that ALF: The Animated Series was made only by Alien Productions, seeing as it's the only company credited?

1. I was giving you credit for suggesting those in the PM's.
2. Fixed.
3. Alien Productions was the company that I think owned the ALF character back then. I wasn't sure if Ruby-Spears, MWS or DiC should be the collaborator on ALF.

1: Thanks! I just wanted to give @PNWKing his dues as well, given his contributions to the more original stories found in the schedule.
2: Cool.
3: IOTL, it was DiC who managed the series. I think we should keep them as the collaborator.

 

[TheFaultsofAlts]

Speaking of the Fox schedule in the beginning, how did people react to the Disney-themed lineup on the network? Me and @PNWKing got a taste of how successful it was with a guy named "Jason" who would wake up as early as possible to catch the Fox fanfare growing up, a sure sign that it was good enough to cause some early risers in the classrooms, but what about everyone else who was hip with pop culture?

 

[PNWKing]

I wonder how any of these shows are doing in the ratings?

Notes
Unlike previous cartoon appearances, the nephews are given distinct personalities and conventional voices are used instead of the "duck" voices of old.​

 

[TheFaultsofAlts]

Some things of note on TTL's DuckTales...

1: I appreciate that Disney's in-house animation division has a place in Walt Disney Sr.'s first stomping grounds as an animator. And no, I currently do not consider Grantray-Lawrence Disney's in-house animation studio.
2: Casting Neil Patrick Harris as Louie Duck works incredibly well for the given scenario.
3: Does Alan Young still voice Wilbur in Mister Ed's All-New Cartoon Show?
4: I don't know which casting choice is crazier: Brad Garrett voicing Beefcake Beagle, or Daniel Abbott voicing both Glomgold and Duckworth.

 

[PNWKing]

I wonder what's up with the Disney family?

 

[OldNavy1988]

I wonder how any of these shows are doing in the ratings?

For one, the lowest rated shows are Small Wonder and Visionaries. But that's only because much of the East Coast affiliates of each network have already cut away to College Football, with SBC being Notre Dame's broadcast partner.

Here's the top 10 so far...
Tied for first: Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures
Tied for first: Pee Wee's Playhouse
3) Ghostbusters
4) Chipmunks
5) Muppet Babies
6) Huck's Landing
7) Super Mario/Metroid
8) Addams Family
9) Captain America
10) The New Archies

Note that Fox's shows are only in the middle of the pack because the network is still in its infancy and more affiliates have been signing on since the October '86 launch.

DuckTales stands alone, dominating the afterschool timeslots on most Fox affiliates. Also, DuckTales has become the cartoon centerpiece on many local kiddie shows on those same stations.

@TheFaultsofAlts

I almost typed in Roddy Piper as Beefcake Beagle but that would've been a bit TOO crazy.

Under Disney's wing, Grantray-Lawrence is indeed separate from Walt Disney Television Animation. GL's main office is on the Fox backlot with new satellite offices in Glasgow, Sydney and a Canadian branch being planned for either Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg or Montreal. In the meantime, the Scottish GL branch is working on Roger Rabbit with Richard Williams.

Walt Disney Television Animation has office space at Disney's Burbank headquarters along with the new Kansas City branch. Walt, Sr.'s old office on Troost Avenue (below) is being converted by the Disney family into a museum. Meanwhile WDTA's KC branch operates from a more modern office building on 13th Street near the Power and Light District. And of course, Arthur Bryant's caters their classic BBQ cuisine to the WDTA-KC staff on celebratory occasions.

For the Disney/Fox Studios park going up in Orlando, they're getting an animation studio too. But I'm not sure if I want it to be a Walt Disney or Grantray-Lawrence branch.

 

[OldNavy1988]

I wonder what's up with the Disney family?

One, Walt, Sr., now 85, has been busy with philanthropic stuff outside of the studio. So Junior, 41, has pretty much taken over hosting the anthology series full time. By the way, the anthology series will move from SBC to Fox by the Fall of '88.

Junior pretty much sports a short mullet to keep up with the times. For those who grew up seeing Walt, Sr. on screen in suit-and-tie, it was a bit startling to see Junior instead wear the latest Nike or Adidas tracksuits on camera. And lest we forget the ugly sweaters Junior would wear for Christmas-themed episodes. And another thing, since 1983, Junior's on-screen appearances on the anthology series have been shot on videotape instead of film.

Before I forget, current trailer announcer Mark Elliott introduces Junior in the same manner as Dick Wesson introduced Walt, Sr. in the Fifties.

A few years back, Junior was in that tug-of-war with brother in law Ron Miller. The end result of course led to Ron taking over the ill-fated Orion Pictures. After that Junior put his cousin Roy E. Disney, now 57, in charge of all the animation assets. Ron was on the "What would've Walt done?" side of the board of directors while Junior was determined to jazz up Disney's brand for the Eighties. As of 1987, Ron is now head of Silverado Vineyards.

Junior's kids: Trey is now 8. Tiffany, now 4, has recently been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome.

Well, even if they didn't cut to College Football, I'm pretty sure they would have tanked anyway. Still, at least this is a better reason for a show to tank than any of Orion's fiascos.

So, it appears that CBS is the top dog a few years earlier with two of its newcomers tying for first place, while Fox's programs did the absolute best they could under less affiliates. Here's hoping that next year may bring a more successful bout for the Mouse House. I mean, I can smell TV shows based on almost all of the upcoming Disney Canon releases, especially TLBT and Little Mermaid.

Yeah! Although, I could see him doing well on any of Disney's other new projects. Maybe he could be a backup option for Scuttle if Buddy Hackett isn't available?

Cool! I was wondering about this for quite some time. As for the upcoming animation studio for Orlando, why not both? Half of the studio's staff could work for the Grantray-Lawrence projects, while the other half could work on the Walt Disney Television Animation projects. Heck, while we're at it, why not have some overlap between divisions, where some Grantray artists work on WDTA works and vice versa for the other studio?

I have aspergers syndrome like Tiffaney. Do you have any plans for what will happen to Trey and Tiffaney Diseny
