HIstorical Cinderella Edit by Camile Eusse something different - just for fun) |
Saturday, March 21, 2015:
The Princess and the Frog - 5pm ET/PT
The Little Mermaid - 7pm ET/PT
Sleeping Beauty - 8:45pm ET/PT
Cinderella - 10:30pm ET/PT
Sunday, March 22, 2015:
Pocahontas - 12:15am ET/PT (yes, VERY early/late!)
The Princess & the Frog - 3pm ET/PT
The Little Mermaid - 5pm ET/PT
Sleeping Beauty - 8:45pm ET/PT
Cinderella - 8:30p ET/PT
Pocahontas (again) - 10:15pm ET/PT
(So we wouldn't expect Anna & Elsa - too soon - but where the heck are Snow White, Jasmine and Rapunzel - three princesses that had their status right from the beginning of the movie?)
Here's the programming pitch:
"Beginning this Saturday, March 21, at 5 p.m. ET/PT, ABC Family will be presenting “Princess Funday.” Princesses of all ages are encouraged to don their tiaras, raise their goblets, and celebrate “girl power” with a princess-packed viewing schedule of animated Disney classics. "For Saturday that's not a "Funday". That's a sleepover at best. Not sure who in programming plans on having their "princess" up past midnight to watch Pocahontas, (or starting to watch a movie after 10pm on a school-the-next-day night!) but... if you need to catch up on those movies (or want to take the opportunity to DVR them) this is a good opportunity.
And there's a new Disney "Imagicadamy" that's promoting family fun play ideas on the Cinderella theme that have nothing to do with watching - or buying - anything.
The activities suggested are:
- Find the Shoe - treasure hunt
- Wait for
MidnightNoon - clothes change dash - Scrub the Floor (unless it's already part of their chores!)
