Dumbo's Circus

I was doing a bit of background research into Dumbo and I found this on Youtube.

What the heck!

I couldn't even get through the first episode.

A very strange bunch of circus animals (including a Koala!) and a lot of CSO/Chromakey work to put the actors on to model sets.

And Dumbo talks!

Was this popular at the time? Did it ever get over to the UK because I certainly don't remember it.

Ah, I loved this show! this and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. My childhood. I really wish Disney would release these shows on DVD. I am sure looking at this now it looks insane. But at the time it was my show! lol

I remember disliking both Dumbo's Circus and Welcome to Pooh Corner. Even as a small child with little to no taste, I recognized those shows as bad. Like a lot of shows aimed at the preschool set, there was a mellow tone that was supposed to be soothing, but came across as somber and boring. I did like Adventures in Wonderland. That one came later.
