It's a vague but reminiscent and entertaining memory.

Now how I recall those Friday nights when I'd see the Main 4 Characters going over the rainbow at the start of the show and even when they and The Wizard of Oz slid down the slide.recently I'd even checked this show out on You Tube to see how it would look?As you'll see too it did very well in mimicking the scenes in The Great Hall including from which the The Voice says "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!"Among others.If you also saw this as a kid and reminisce about this then you'll be immediately transported back through time too.This would be great for release on DVD as well.So let's hope that it'll get on a.s.a.p. as well.Yes to be 4 again too.Truthfully,Stephen "Steve" G.
