The Mickey Mouse Club definitely remains entertaining forty-nine years later, even if it's a considerably different type of experience than it was for the kids who watched this after school when it first aired. I don't think this low-budget variety show is as likely to please as some of the other vintage material released through the Walt Disney Treasures line. But I found it rewarding to relive the first week of a simple and somewhat hokey program as it first aired, and it certainly won't disappoint those familiar with the Club from reruns or a '50s childhood, or who approach it with the left expectations.

Still, I'm not sure if this is the best route to take in releasing The Mickey Mouse Club. Having just five out of 300 episodes (and there's even more when you consider the '70s and '90s versions) presents such a small taste of a series that made a strong impression on a generation. We certainly won't see sixty different Mickey Mouse Club tins of this type issued, and we might not even see anymore. If this is the only such set released cost effectively, then we can all surely be grateful for its existence. But I know I am strongly interested in seeing much more.

Some collectors of the Walt Disney Treasures line see a firm divide between "animated" and "live action" content, and may only choose to pick up releases of the former class. Those who pass on The Mickey Mouse Club on this basis will be missing out on a rewarding trip down memory lane to enjoy an energetic program that rarely re-airs and has never been recreated by any other producer of entertainment. (Not to mention that Disney animation was a staple of the show.) While the packaging may have changed, this Mickey Mouse Club set upholds the Treasures tradition of presenting the studio's vintage material with care. The tiny slice of the show offered may be a tease for much more, but the four hours of content plus a solid half-hour of bonus material give us plenty to enjoy for the time being.

About Walt Disney Treasures:

The Walt Disney Treasures are two-disc DVD sets of classic Disney works, covering work from the studio's earliest days to more recent work. So far there have been nine waves of the DVDs, each comprising two, three or four different sets (adding up to a total of thirty different titles).

The DVD sets were the idea of film critic–historian Leonard Maltin, who appears on each set to introduce the DVDs, and to provide historical context to some of the more dated, and sometimes politically incorrect, works.
