BONUS FEATURES

Menu & Episode Selection in every disc.

Disc One opens with a standard introduction (5:21) from Treasures host/producer Leonard Maltin. He discusses the different incarnations of Zorro, all the things that made Disney's show so exciting and special,
the series' popularity, the contents of this DVD, and notable guest cast members seen here.

Four items on Disc 6 are all deemed bonus features. First and probably most important are two hour-long episodes from the weekly anthology series then called "Walt Disney Presents." Together with two other hour-long anthology installments (found on the Season 2 Treasures set), these made up what many consider the highly abbreviated third season of "Zorro." Walt Disney introduces each of them and follows up the first with a preview of the second.

In "El Bandido (Part 1)" (51:15; originally aired October 30, 1960), twelve bandits from Mexico ride into Los Angeles seeking opportunities for personal gain. Their tight-lipped leader El Cuchillo (Gilbert Roland) looks to use information gleamed in casual conversation with Sgt. Garcia and Diego, but a grossly outnumbered Zorro stands up to the threat.

"Adios El Cuchillo (Part 2)" (48:59; November 6, 1960) follows through on the storyline, as El Cuchillo grows suspicious of Don Diego, whose alter ego is effectively thwarting the bandits' attempted thefts.

The all-new featurette "The Life and Legend of Zorro" (12:25) begins with a brief background on the character's history in print and films starring Douglas Fairbanks and Tyrone Power. It then proceeds to celebrate Disney's TV series, discussing the actors, the high production values, the popular original music, and the legal wrangling that brought about its end after just two seasons. In addition to the many historians interviewed (whose expertise ranges from Disney to TV to Zorro to music) are Guy Williams Jr., the son of the late star, and actress Suzanne Lloyd, who played duplicitous comandante's wife Raquel Toledano in six Season 1 episodes. Though quite brisk, this is an informative retrospective.

Finally, we get an excerpt from "The Fourth Anniversary Show" (3:16), the anthology's Season 4 premiere first aired on September 11, 1957. In the clip, the Mickey Mouse Club Mouseketeers – particularly Kevin "Moochie" Corcoran – beg Walt Disney to talk about "Zorro." After a moment's reluctance, Walt gives in and shows the title theme montage. Then, Guy Williams appears in full character to discuss whether he really exists or not. Walt and the Mouseketeers look off to the side to create an illusion of interaction. It's a cool and welcome if insubstantial inclusion. The full 52-minute episode is found on Disc 1 of the Walt Disney Treasures' Your Host, Walt Disney set.
