On this day in 1980, CBS aired ‘Kraft Salutes Disneyland’s 25th Anniversary’ to honor the park’s milestone year. The hour-long TV special follows a boy on his first trip to Disneyland. He keeps running into comedic actor Danny Kaye throughout the park, dressed as a different colorful character each time. Kaye shares park history and fun facts with the boy. Special guests include Michael Jackson, The Osmonds, Annette Funicello, and Buddy Ebsen. [45 years ago in 2025]
