The show takes place in '62, but Frankie and Annette didn't make their first movie together until 1963! You know where I am going with this...?


PEACE.

Yes, however, they were on the Mickey Mouse Club together before that.

I may be wrong, but I don't believe Frankie was on the Mouse Club show.

hmmm .. this is very true .. sorry I wasn't thinking .. I was just thinking of the lyric and thought maybe he was on there at some point. Maybe they just didn't realize that and made a mistake?

a funny thing about the show is that the writers will openly admit to several historical inacuracies. Like "afrotastic" - afros weren't worn until much later.
