Description
The author examines the history of the Disney television series while placing it in context of the film industry’s reaction to television in the post-World War II era, the Disney Studios place in the American entertainment industry, and Walt Disney’s dream to create the modern theme park. The author’s guiding principle in this examination is to illustrate how Disney changed the relationship between cinema and television and, perhaps more importantly, how it affected American culture.
