Walt Disney Anthology Television Series - Films Not Yet Televised

Films Not Yet Televised

As of 2010, there are still two classic Disney films that have never been shown on American television at all in their entirety. They are Fantasia and Song of the South. Though it has been re-released to U.S. theatres several times, and the Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah and Tar Baby segments have been shown on television, Song of the South has never been released on VHS or an authorized DVD in the U.S., due to the company's unease over the portrayal of Uncle Remus, a key black character in the film. No reason has been given for the withholding of Fantasia for telecast. Nearly all of its segments have been shown on television separately on the Disney TV program, notably The Sorcerer's Apprentice, as well as the uncensored Pastoral Symphony, but never the entire film with all its animated segments from start to finish.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs never aired in its entirety on US TV (it was broadcast around the world on Disney Channel and Disney Cinemagic and was released on VHS, DVD and Blu-ray) before being telecast on February 14, 2010 on ABC Family, nearly 56 years after the beginning of the first Disney anthology show.
