They're kidding, right? This is a joke, isn't it?

Dannii Minogue presents music from the best animated movies, including performances from Katherine Jenkins and Mika.

Can Sunday night TV get any worse?

What's the problem.

In the past two decades, some very good music has been written for animated movies, "The Lion King" and "Sleeping BEuaty" being prime examples.

Eric, I think Mr CW is bemoaning the fact that this is an artificially created 'vote for X', very cheap (i.e. st) telly show, not the quality of film scores/tunes that have been used.

Much as I don't want to, I have to agree with him. Barrel scraping is being done here.

The more I read the listings for TV, the more I realise how prescient Steve Coogan's Alan Partridge was with his suggestions for "Monkey Tennis" and "Youth Hostelling With Chris Eubank."

They really have run out of ideas for TV programmes.

Anyone remember KYTV from the late 80s? A fictional station with low rate shows that have zero content. "International Caravan Racing" I think was one.

Obviously they were visionaries looking at todays TV culture!

I agree that there have been too many "Listings" type programmes over the past few years - although the number has dropped more recently. I think Channel 4 started it all with their "100 Greatest Movies" about 7 or 8 years ago.

I would say a lot longer than that. I still have my Disney albums from decades ago. Glad to see the Bear Necessities won...though was sad to see some fat twunt kill it. All those great fast paced songs, killed by current z list singers who want to slow it all down, saw a few awful examples in that show.

I did see it all, sky plussed it though, will watch to see if any other greats made it through.

Songs from animated films have been popular since at least Disney's "Snow White" in 1938.
However, up until 1960, there were more popular songs coming out of film musicals than animated films. With the demise of the traditional film musical, animated films have become a main source for movie generated popyular songs.
