Hey, everyone.

It's Sabrina Brian here at the Disneyland After Dark Disney Channel

Night and I am here with Coach Bolton himself, Bart Johnson.

Oh, hey, thanks for having me, Sabrina.

It's so good to be here.

I know, it is so fun.

All right, we're going to go right into.

I have so many questions about how are you

feeling about just walking in to Disney Channel Night? What's the vibe, the nostalgia? Is it just

everything? Gosh, yeah. You know, I was not, I didn't expect this. I mean, I had a feeling,

but not quite like that. So you haven't been to one of these things. I was going to ask you. You haven't. I didn't know that it was, well, first of all, they're selling like our merch here at Disneyland, which is amazing. I know. Like all these years that, you would have thought that movie came out this summer. Right. Right.

Like every, like I cannot, there's thousands of people where in the merch. Not only that, what's amazing is these fans are now all dressed up.

We've got Cheetah Girls all in the orange, the pink, the blue, the purple.

We've got Wildcats going crazy.

I'm seeing people from Xenon. I'm seeing all

of the favorite Disney channel. We've got Hannah Montana is everywhere in the park. I saw Zach

and Cody twins with the wigs. Yes. There you go. It is amazing. These fans are not

disappointing. They are showing up and showing up. They are. They are. For the first time ever I saw a fan wearing a tree outfit and they had a sign that said, what the heck of those two doing in a tree? Oh my gosh. They said, coach. I love that. I got to take a picture with a tree. How creative. Very creative. I know. I mean, does it really even shock you that we are 20 years later and high school musical is still thriving? Yeah, it's crazy. I mean, I feel like it's more popular now than ever. Yes. And I don't know if it was like 10 years ago. I don't know if it's more popular. Well, I mean, in the sense of it's a new generation. Yes. And I don't know if it was like, was it like 10 years ago? I don't know if it's more popular.

Well, I mean, in the sense of it's a new generation from Disney Plus, like doing the rewatches. It is. It's like sprung a whole new generation for the Disney Channel fans. Well, you know, I see, I get little kids that stop me on the street. They're, coach, coach. And I look at the parents and I say, how do these kids know the movie so well?

And they said, well, coach, I grew up with these movies.
