Episode 54 - The Color of Friendship Disney Channel Tipsy Panel

    • TV & Film

It's pleasantly surprising to see what DIsney Channel is capable of when they're not just trying to satisfy their newest star's contract with a movie and a record deal. The Color of Friendship is Disney Channel's look at the horrors of apartheid South Africa with a broader message on racism and equality. It's especially important if, like us, you realize that this conflict was noticeably absent from your history curriculum growing up. We attend to that history, but we also find some time to enjoy James's peach, rooibos, and vodka drink and appreciate the finer touches to this movie: the roaming barbershop quartet, the painfully 70s getups, Mahree's gloopy little brother, and more.
