You're quite wrong. The show was originally titled DISNEYLAND and
aired on ABC-TV on
sunday evenings.
Later, in the U.S., the Disney show was changed to THE WONDERFUL
WORLD OF COLOR and
it aired on NBC, the network that was really pre-eminent in color
telecasting.
The story of the relationship between the program Disneyland, ABC
Television, and the construction
of the theme park Disneyland (in Anaheim) has been extensively
reported in several Disney
biographies.

to be corrected here,,, the show was called THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF
DISNEY, not DISNEYLAND. unless there was some off the cuff show
that disney sent to australia called DISNEYLAND. i think that
show was actually called SYDNEYLAND. appropriate, i think. :)

Interesting out of that list, Rich, that OLD YELLER which we can
add to it, was the only one I saw as a young child.
All the others I saw either in late teens or even later for the
first time. We also used to see them carved up in chunks/
sequences on DISNEYLAND in the early 60s. Periodically, I get the
impression that export version of DISNEYLAND was quite different
to the US domestic one. There seemed uncanny tie-ins to
"specials" that coincided with local Australian releases of new
Disney product.

I think if you look at lots of Disney films, they have some
overtly violent contexts
Snow White: the Witch terrified children at the time and I have 2
cousins who to this day have not seen the film since they were
little girls and refused to let their children watch it when they
were youngsters
Bambi: the forest fire & a number of other scenes create wailing
children everytime it is screened
Peter Pan: death & destruction
Pinochio: oh c'mon, being swallowed by the whale in that
terrifying scene makes kids doody their pants.
and those are just some samples.

Maybe Unka Walt really hated children?
I'm sure audience testing went on back then for studio releases
specifically WDPs, and while OY is a "classic childrens film"
you would think that audience test responses would have
indicated that it was potentially a tad too traumatic for
younger kids, especially those with a mutt at home.
So either Walt was cackling with glee up the back of the
previews as the tots were reduced to wailing and sobbing, or
thinking WELL, IT'S GOOD FOR CHILDREN TO "LEARN ABOUT LOSS".....
AND PAY ME TO DO SO.
Or as another well-known producer said privately in more recent
years, THERE'S A KID OUT THERE IN THE VALLEY WITH A DOLLAR IN
HIS POCKET, AND I WANT IT.

About 2 years ago, I finally put Old Yeller on t.v. I had been
telling my children about it for so many years and my now 11
year old is a huge movie buff. We had to stop it at "the" part
as she was so upset. She vowed never to watch it again.

I can watch Penny Serenade and if I live to be 1,000 I'll never
watch Old Yeller again.
