My young children love Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, what can I say? But as I was watching with them, I swore I was watching an episode of Dora The Explorer played out with Disney characters. The similarities are many: interactive questions for the young viewers, complete with pauses to simulate the child's answer, followed by an exclamatory "Right!"; a "toolbox" used throughout the show by Mickey (with the viewers' "assistance") to solve problems (just like Dora's "Backpack"); and a review of the successful journey followed by a celebratory dance routine (ala Dora's/Boots' "We Did It!" song). As a leader in animation and film for so many decades, I was surprised to see that that Disney has relegated itself to cloning another successful franchise. But the kids love it...what can I say?
Also, everyone loves the Hot Dog song! It is written and performed by They Might Be Giants.
