Emily vs Daniel. It's on!
Written on June 19, 2007 by Kevin.
For those who are not familiar with the Disney channel morning line up, Daniel cook has a short 5 minute show each morning in which he learns new things such as milking a cow, trying new fruit and making a pizza. Rylan has always enjoyed watching him because he is pretty funny otherwise just entertaining. My wife and I even enjoy watching him.
Welcome Emily Yeung. Miss Rip off if you ask me. She now has a show that is a duplicate version of the Daniel Cook show but with her. I understand little girls may enjoy watching another girl but at that age do we need a girls perspective on how fun it is to milk a cow or write a poem? They took an entertaining show and attempted to clone it but as most sequels go, it isn't nearly as great as the original.
We'll see how her show does in the future weeks but my bet is that it will get no better. Long live the original Daniel Cook!
Is this new girl on Disney too? Not to sound sexist but I am at a loss at how the literary 'Christopher Robin' was replaced by the cartoon tomboy (butchie) Darby and now I'm reading that Daniel Cook is being replaced by Emily. Don't even get me started on how the two male roles, Moe and Rooney, on the Doodlebops are played by women (or at least men who act like women). What's up with Disney -is there some hidden agenda here?

This new girl is on Disney. In fact, my wife has yet to see Daniel since Emily showed up. Will be a sad day when Daniel is bumped off the lineup.
My wife and I felt the same way with the new Darby character on the Pooh show. Pooh is a classic and they really should not have messed up by bringing in a girl to play the role. We could all use Christopher's calm in our lives again not this spazzy Darby.
As for the Doodlebops, my wife and I are in agreement that at least Roonie is gay (not judging). Moe though we figure he is just a bit strange and because of the show itself it may lead you to believe he is as well..
As for a hidden agenda? hmmm Disneyland is the happiest place on earth so anything is possible..
