Disneyland My Dog, the Thief: Part 1 (1954–1991) watch online HD

It's a very cute Wonderful World of Disney Television movie from the early sixties. Produced by Ron Miller in 1963 before Walt died but after he gave control of it's TV movie departments over to others. It still has that Disney touch, but not in the same way as Norman Tokar movies of an earlier period.

It's generally about a traffic reporter who ends up with a thieving St. Bernard who gets into trouble. Two bumbling thieves and a jewel heist. It's actually got a lot of charm and cute jokes in it. It has that Disney feel of that time period, a bit corny, but in our world who can't use sweet charm and humor?

For anyone who grew up watching television in the early seventies, The Actor who Played Doby Gillis is in it, as well as a few background actors from other series such as Bewitched, Star Trek, and other seventies series.

According to the good folks at Disney/Buena Vista, "Jack Crandall (Dwayne Hickman) flies a helicopter for a radio station. But, Crandall's traffic reports are caught in a bad-ratings tailspin ... until a huge St. Bernard dog named Barabbas stows away on the craft, sending the program's ratings through the clouds! - But, both Crandall and his girlfriend Kim (Mary Ann Mobley) are unaware that Barabbas is a hopeless kleptomaniac until the dog graduates to the world of high crime by casually lifting a million-dollar necklace from a team of professional jewel thieves. Join the fun in a hilarious adventure that'll have the whole family dizzy with laughter!" This movie had me reeling with something, but it wasn't laughter.

Somebody ought to have called the dogcatcher on this one. To be continued next week, if you haven't already switched over to Ed Sullivan or "The F.B.I."…
