3:29 The funny thing is that that Coronado Springs resort was one of the closet hotels to Animal Kingdom at the time. The Animal Kingdom Lodge Jambo House wouldn't open for another three years.
You know, it's kind of nice to see the "Nein nein nein" gag all the way through without a commercial interrupting in the middle of it. Thanks, AdBlockerPlus! :P
I loved this show as a kid. It was corny but it never took itself too seriously and the premise was really weird. Other ABC shows were about families who love each other and make inane mistakes that they forgive each other for at the time. Or high school. This show was about... uh witches. Looking back though it looks really stupid but I do still like the lead actress. She really fills the role with a lot more charisma than the show deserves.
"Cats arent allowed in the park" Ironically the disney parks are FULL of cats, and yet i cant remember the last time i saw an animatronic cat in disney parks... Seriously though theres something magical about meeting one of the disneyland mousers in the park. They are so friendly!
I think a better sub plot would be if Sabrina already made the antidote potion to the potion to become a animal, than the black cat took that potion, it sets itself for countless jokes, it sets up a problem for Sabrina and it, itself is a interesting plot.
Ya know, because of how magic works in the Channel Awesome universe, Jerk just shaved some time off his lifespan by teleporting out of that Ferris wheel and back.
@@michaelwinchester5003 Since Tony isn’t part of CA anymore idk if he still abides by the lore rules, but according to Suburban Knights magic users die if they use too much of their magic. Unless you have a magic hat like Linkara’s that protects you from those effects.
This is sorta like the Animal Kingdom retrospective we're never getting because of how it's not as interesting as Epcot or DCA, although a retrospective on post Epcot build Disney World Parks would be something I'd like to watch.
That dragon reminds me, does it annoy anyone else that they're making avatar land instead of the awesome sounding area based around magical creatures that they initially could t make because of lack of budget?
I'm sure it annoys Disney to no end that they didn't hold out for a couple of years and build a Zootopia land there instead. Beastly Kingdomme woulda been awesome, no doubt, but sometimes it's best to just move on and let these things go.
The original plans for Disney's Animal Kingdom included a land called Beastly Kingdomme, devoted to creatures of legend and myth, like dragons and unicorns. It was to be built in the area that used to be Camp Minnie-Mickey (the area that's now being turned into a land based on James Cameron's Avatar) but sadly it was removed from the Phase One plans when they needed to cut costs, and never got built.
+Tony Goldmark the avatar thing bugs me now because I realize how forgettable it was, so forgettable that they're gonna make sequels with the thought process being "one of them is bound to stick", I don't think avatar land will have the results Disney wants and you're right, a Zootopia land would've been great!
@@TonyGoldmark give them time, they’ll make a segment there. Not like there’s much of anything there in the first place, it’s nothing more than a glorified Zoo anyway.
Personally, I think they should replace the dragon in the logo with an Ikran (the flying avatar things) but not say anything so nobody freaks out about a logo changing
You know it's funny, I actually can picture Kimmel hosting his show for a week at Disney World (I mean hey why not AFV has done stuff at Disney many times)
iHeart Gaming and Whose Line Boston Legal could do it too. I wouldn’t recommend it but by the time of season 5 it wouldn’t be too out of place honestly.
No idea if this was intentional cleverness or a happy coincidence, but just realized that the "lumbered" line in the song is filmed in front of and uses clips of logs.
It just hit me, imagine if this Sabrina episode aired in October then the cross promotion would have been for Fantasmic! maybe then this episode would have been better, I mean with the exception of Everest the Safari and some other parts Animal kingdom is easily the most boring out of all the Disney World Parks, moreso than Epcot at leats for me.
Fun fact: My mom met Caroline Rhea when she altered her pants... XDD... She REALLY didn't want to talk about Sabrina the Teenage Witch, she wasn't thrilled when my mom mentioned it.
@@dereknight861 I have no idea, I didn't get to meet her. My mom was just like: "You're from SABRINA!!!" And Caroline was like: "Yeah, I don't want to talk about it. Here are my pants." Apparently, she visits my state often and in my town. (I asked my mom a few times if I could meet her since we've seen her in town and mom said she doesn't like fans saying hi and bugging her from what she's seen.)
Funnily enough I grew up watching reruns of this in Teen Nick and that even included this episode. Also 7:31 - 7:35 gooood thing this isn’t the Chilling Adventure continuity 😵💫
+Bart Simpson (CNDISMinion96) Near the entrance of pretty much ANY half-decent theme park, there is a room (or at least a wall) of lockers people can rent, to store things for the day for whatever reason. I got the "That Darn God" shot at the lockers by the entrance of Animal Kingdom. For the dollar-kissing scene, I used audio from the scene in Inglourious Basterds where Hitler screams "NEIN NEIN NEIN!" So I figured there should be a map on the wall behind me. The only Disney park location I could think of where I knew there was a map on the wall was at the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail at Disney California Adventure.
I made these videos before The Middle's Disney World episode aired. Maybe someday I'll do a 2.0 update retrospective covering The Middle, Black-ish and The Goldbergs.
Strictly speaking, the FCC song itself was a parody of Volunteer Fireman's Picnic from the 1959 musical Take Me Along. They changed the bridge, but the main part is right there. ruclips.net/video/ieHHfS_0EHQ/видео.html
Okay, imagine if all your favorite internet video-makers were on this one website that wasn't RUclips. And imagine if, for a good year or so, the ONLY commercials that ever played on that website (which, btw, didn't allow you to ever SKIP said commercials) were... This one, for Verizon: ruclips.net/video/1HpMOSpfEt4/видео.html This one, for Blue Shield of California: ruclips.net/video/0aZ2u_LxB2k/видео.html This one, for Christmas Time at Disneyland: ruclips.net/video/6O4_bDPa7lI/видео.html Annnd the Denny's commercial the Nostalgia Critic is talking about right here: ruclips.net/video/tsn4zIJMonA/видео.html Watch each commercial multiple times until they REALLY get lodged in your brain, then watch the Basterds bit again from 11:07 to get the full effect.
Okay I remember again. It has been quite long ass time since I watched stuff on Blip but I lost interest in them when they became super strict and shit and now they are shut down
Not to mention the Geico commercial set on the USS Wisconsin: ruclips.net/video/oB8SJrfH_rA/видео.html Or the 30 second State Farm Commercials that took *30 minutes* to run through. Yeah, I don't have good memories of commercials on Blip.
9:01They clearly didn't care about details, That is CLEARLY a white rhino, if the anatomy wasn't enouph of a clue, the fact that they are in a safari ride in the enclosure should be the a red flag, Black Rhinos have to aggressive of a temprement for that, they'd be ramming the jeep. White Rhinos, while just as physicaly dangerous, have a layed back, low energy temperment witch makes them relatively safe for such attractions.
You know its funny, mabye it's because i didn't know it was a parody when I frist herd this when I was 13 , but I too this day prefer of ABC over the original FCC song.
5:17 well, sailem could always pretend to be onr of the LITTERAL THOUSANDS of strays that call the park home that disney begrudgingly tolerates for the free pest control
They dont begrudginly tolerate them. The cats were put there by disney. They are all vaccinated and taken care of by disney and do in fact have housing hidden within the park grounds Btw said cats at disneyland are super friendly in my experience
I've been considering doing a big retrospective of the Muppets' involvement with Disney parks, which would encompass that special, along with Muppet*Vision 3D and all the other, smaller Muppet attractions (and some of the bigger ones that were planned but then abandoned).
@@TonyGoldmark you good man. Just a friendly jab. Love your work. Rapid fire with that absurd humor. Awesome! Found you through that crossover you did with BHH, and been watching through a bunch of your content. :)
Not Pirates necessarily, but on our Magic Kingdom shooting day, I had it on the shotlist to shoot that bit wherever we happened to be IF it started raining. Florida did not disappoint me.
Yep. That episode aired after I already finished this whole retrospective. Someday I'll revisit the subgenre and cover the Disney park episodes of The Middle, Blossom, Are We There Yet, Hard Time On Planet Earth, and the upcoming WDW episode of Black-ish.

Did you ever consider making a special edition of this video where Sabrina shoots first?
Oh. My god. I WAS HERE!! I REMEMBER SEEING YOU!!! I didn't know who you were at the time but still!!!
I always wondered when someone who was around when he was filming the reviews would see the review.

Welp, did not not know I needed a parody of "The Freakin' FCC" based around sitcoms going to Disney, but now I know. Thanks, Tony!
It's amazing that the song you parodied at the end is now a Disney song.
"Satan keeps trying to hit on me"
Both more disturbing and more funny now that Chilling Adventures is a thing.
I loved this show as a kid. It was corny but it never took itself too seriously and the premise was really weird.

Good job recapping the episode and Disney's product placement of its shows. Must've taken a lot of time to put together.

I actually named my cat Salem in honor of the character
If I read this correctly, the Salem cat was also Binx in Hocus Pocus

I started cackling when a commercial popped up.

Good times.

And I thought Jerk's references were dated, ouch...
Its Country Bears all ove again
When I went to Disney a few years ago I had the park hopper pass and wound up spending most of the at Animal Kingdom cause it is awesomeeeeeeeeeeee!
Oh yeah, they've added a lotta cool stuff in the last twenty years, but when it first opened there was almost nothing to do.
that song was pretty good
every time I read about Sabrina the teenage witch, I always think of Robot Chicken.
