loved the Mickey Mouse Club back in the fifties with Annette and Sharon and Cubby and the rest of the Mouseketeers. brings back fond memories off my childhood
I regret it took until Annette's death today before searching & finding Mickey Mouse Club footage I recall from childhood. I haven't heard the slow tempo,show ending outro song in many decades until today. It always sounded sad to me, but is sadder today (April 8, 2013). Thankfully, I found it here! Former British PM Margaret Thatcher died today too, but Annette's death, not the Iron Lady's, is what saddens me, & reminds one that "no one here gets out alive."
If you grew up in the mid-late 50's as a kid, this n Superman were what you looked forwards to when you came home from school ea. n every day! It really is a 'time warp' to look back n realize what was not only lost forever, but what we've become.........SAD!
Keep in mind ,Tv was young then,there were alot of first time things to do. Thats what kept our interest , first time to see a Davy Crockett series , first time to watch Disneyland on TV. So alot of it was that first time effect, which by now has been done 1000 times over .
Although life was not perfect at the time, I do remember that maturity, responsibility and idealism were more present in the mix of experiences. It's interesting to observe, as an older person now, the gradual but steady decline in public decorum. Only those of us who have lived through this change can truly understand. Perhaps our new era has its merits, but something has been lost as well. Thank you, technologists everywhere, for making CZcams possible. That's a compensation of today!
Great memories and lots of educational benefits were derived from the show. Annette was a winner right from the beginning until the end. We will miss you and thsoe that have gobe before you. John Tingle
Now This is a great Time warp Annette Funicello (R.I.P) Disney Walk down old memory Lane! I remember waking early to watch the reruns of this show in the 70's and YES I too like most young boys my age had such a crush on Annette! It's so sad that she died the way she did :(
You know, back in the 70's, in Washington D.C., they used to run these old black&white Mickey Mouse Club shows in the afternoons after school and a story ran in the Washington Post that the shows peaked at #1 for about a week.
I remember watching this when I was 4 or 5. My mom said I would get soooo excited when it would come on, that I would almost faint! I always loved Annette and Bobby. To this day I still love all her beach movies. Watch them all the time. Wish Netflix would put more of them on for us older folks.
So many thanks. This vid is like visiting lost family and friends. I remember the original disneyland show on Sunday nights. Everyone in the neightborhood was at home, glued to the b&w screen. When I die I want to go the Magic Kingdom.
Steven MacPhail thanx. In case you're interested, it's called H.S.P. which is Heritary Spastic Parapalegia) and more info. can be found at www.sp-foundation.org
@@Mauzy0x00 The Mouseketeers were the generation that got rid of segregation and almost totally ended racism in America. Our current crop of young leftists and CZcamsrs are bringing them back because it helps them feel important and self-righteous. Walt Disney and the Mouseketeers were all wildly superior to anyone in Hollywood today. Our current smug, snarky generation has no idea people like these ever existed.
Annette Funicello was a class act. These days are gone, but not forgotten. It's lovely to see the "old days" of film and our favorite "stars". It was a very uninformed time and we just loved who we loved. I remember I was very young when I watched this show, but I cherished the songs and the teens and wanted to be just like them. Clean cut as we used to say, with manners and class. R.I.P. sweet Annette, and Bonnie and Cheryl.
This used to be my mom my grandma used to be watching this so I’m really love this so keep up the good work because I love this because my grandma said this to me today December 12/2021 so this is real old
Yes I watched that MMC every day and it distorted my life. Truly, you would have to be there. But, this little girl Annette Funicello, had all of the boys and teenagers in love with her. All of my cousins. RIP Annette no longer will the Pineapple Princess sing.
how come they don't do the Mickey Mouse club from the 1950's any more. i was born in the 80's and love watching Mickey and all his Friends. now every thing whet down hill. 2017 need more family fun on TV .
Great video, sure brings back memories! I was pretty little when the Mickey Mouse Club was on, but I remember it. Maybe from the reruns, I'm not sure. But my older brother & sister watched the show all the time. Because of that, our little brother, who is now 51 got his name. Our mom & dad couldn't come up with a name. My mother told my dad she would name him Elvis if he didn't come up with a name. So my brother & sister came up with the name Marty from The Adventures of Spin and Marty.
Now this is TV! My mom loved Annette Funicello and her movies with Frankie Avilon!! I agree that the TV shows of yesterday are better than the garbage that is on today. I have two retro TV stations up here in the Milwaukee area. I wish they would air "Old-School" Mickey Mouse Club on one of these stations. I would watch shows like this over the crap that is on today!!!
This show came on a few yrs b4i was born. But saw the reruns. Great show. But now 2 of the Mousketeers have passed that I know of. Annette several yrs ago and sadly Karen. May they RIP.
When they started re-airing this in the late 70s I had such a *huge* crush on Annette only to have my Dad tell me 'you know shes like 40 now, the one on the Skippy peanut Butter commercials' I was then the one crushed... Always seemed like the other Mouseketeers despised her or just jealous.
Kevin Yancy Actually that's not true, one of the original Mousketeers actually got off a speeding ticket just by telling an officer stories about Annette.
The first girl,the first prettist girl,the very first that we loved, will always be the first girl we will always be thinking of~ :( Thanks for the my first crush Annette what great talent you were with all the others~Peace to your family.
RIp beautiful Lady you were a very important part of so many lives. I never missed seeing the Mickey Mouse Club while growing up in Windsor,ON . My deepest condolences to your family.
@56Mercgal , I all so wish I could have meet Fess Parker before he passed away...he will be missed... I enjoyed him as Davey Crockett, and later Daniel Boone which I didn't know he had played untill about 3 yrs ago when the TV show came out on DVD. I'm 42 now and glad for all the memories from these shows.
On this day in 1955 {July 17th} the Mickey Mouse Club first appeared on TV; it was included in an ABC-TV special celebrating the opening of "Disneyland" in California. It evolved into a daily TV show; in its original format it ran until 1959...

I am totally sitting in class right now while this is playing on the screen in the front. HEY DR. SMITH!!!!!!!!
Fancy seeing you here, we all need some wholesome content once in a while.
Lol
Disney really needs to release all the seasons of this show on DVD
Annette Funicello. . . R.I.P. You are missed. You were a great actor and will always be in our memories!
The real hotty was Darlene!
R.I.P. dear Annette.... We will always remember you!
RIP Annette Funicello.
Thanks for some special memories while growing up.
It is ironic that Annette Funicello would say that her memories will be forever in film, She was a true gem among the stars. Rest in peace.

Annette you fought a long hard battle, you are now set free with wings - RIP with God's Blessings.

Actually brought tears to my eyes... about all these old school cartoons !!!
Keep in mind ,Tv was young then,there were alot of first time things to do. Thats what kept our interest , first time to see a Davy Crockett series , first time to watch Disneyland on TV. So alot of it was that first time effect, which by now has been done 1000 times over .
What happy, sweet memories! RIP Annette.
I would too. We didn't have to lock our doors and played outside at night
Good bye Annette , thank you for your wonderful smiles , all these years . RIP

Why ?

Shawn Startup I wish Annette stayed healthy, she was too beautiful and kind to get sick.😰
WOW! this sure does bring back childhood memories! I want to go back to that time period when the USA was great
This show was part of me, my life, and helped mold me into the person I've become. Great memories.
You know, back in the 70's, in Washington D.C., they used to run these old black&white Mickey Mouse Club shows in the afternoons after school and a story ran in the Washington Post that the shows peaked at #1 for about a week.
I was one of legends who fell madly in love with Annette. I will miss you, now you can rest in peace.
Bless you Annette....Many years of memories...you are no longer in Pain
RIP Annette. The world will miss you so very much.
RIP Annette and god bless you.
We love you Annette Funicello. R.I.P.
Cheryl had such a beautiful smile! RIP Cheryl
R.I.P. Annette Funicello - you will be missed!!
I'm 14 years old and I would rather watch this than whatever we have right now! I like old school shows!
I'm 13 and this looks like something that I would want to see
I'm 125 and I like death metal.
Echocookie ????????????
Nozomi Toujou I'm 54 and I appreciate the old Nickelodeon
I do too!
Such happy memories. Thank you for helping to make my childhood so happy. Rest in peace, Annette.

I loved SPIN & MARTY! Thanks for the post. AND......yes, yes, DISNEYLAND, it still is "the happiest place on Earth"!!!!!!
They we're still showing these as re-runs in the afternoon when I was a kid but Annette was making beach blanket films and Don was on My Three Sons.
This was my life!
This is better then today junk
I remember watching this when I was 4 or 5. My mom said I would get soooo excited when it would come on, that I would almost faint! I always loved Annette and Bobby. To this day I still love all her beach movies. Watch them all the time. Wish Netflix would put more of them on for us older folks.
And Bobby is on PBS Lawrence Welk reruns, so you can still see him
So many thanks. This vid is like visiting lost family and friends. I remember the original disneyland show on Sunday nights. Everyone in the neightborhood was at home, glued to the b&w screen. When I die I want to go the Magic Kingdom.
It's one of the first things I remember as a child.
I watched these on the Disney channel in the 80's. Loved it. Actually convinced my two little brothers that I was on the show.
RIP Annette. I've always admired her as I have a disease that's similar to MS.
Sorry about your condition.
I was born on Miss Funicello's 23rd birthday (22 OCT. 1965). My mother had MS.

Micky Mouse Club and Captain Kangaroo (with Mr Green Jeans)
John Wedeward How can you misspell Mickey? It's in the song: M-I-C See you real soon. K-E-Y. Why? Because we like you!
Other than cartoons, this was the only show, live action, made JUST for kids. I'm 68 years old and remember watching this snow every Sunday night.
RIP We folks that watched you as children will never forget.
I think this was my favorite TV show when I was 5 or so.
how come they don't do the Mickey Mouse club from the 1950's any more.
i was born in the 80's and love watching Mickey and all his Friends.
now every thing whet down hill.
2017 need more family fun on TV .
i remember staying home from school with an ear ache and watching this show always made me feel better :)

Kevin Yancy That's why they call it a "crush".
Kevin Yancy Actually that's not true, one of the original Mousketeers actually got off a speeding ticket just by telling an officer stories about Annette.
Kevin Yancy You too? I thought I was the only one LOL!!!
Wonderful time of innocence.
RIP Annette Funicello
