Hey...so this video was meant to go up last night as a sort of election night chill post to help us all cope with the stress but thanks to some technical issues that didn't happen. But it's here now! And as it happens a lot of us still probably need a break from the news. So please enjoy!
A month or so back I got several requests to cover a Disney Channel Original Movie called My Date with the President's Daughter. It came out in 1998 and it's...something. It's certainly not my favorite DCOM but it seemed a fitting companion to the hellscape that we're currently living in.
Thank you guys for watching and always showing up for me. It makes me happy to know you guys are tuning in. This is your mom friend reminder to drink water and look after your mental health. See you guys soon!

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

This most likely doesn't need to be said because our community is super cool, but I felt the need under the circumstances to remind everyone not to fight about politics in the comments. It goes for all my videos that we talk to each other like both Fred and Steve Rogers are watching. Okay, mom rant over...drink some water. Sorry...now it's over. Love youz guys. 😊

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

Lol, everyone is pretty chill here but given the state of *gestures at everything* and seeing as this is the internet I figured it couldn't hurt. 😅

This and Eddys Million Dollar Cook Off are my favorite Disney Channel movies. That damn song has been in my head since i was a kid. Anytime i hear something along the lines of “presidents daughter” it instantly plays in my head.

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

Omg anytime I would so much as open the project file it would start playing in my head. 😂 It's relentless. I have a healthy fear of its power. Also I totally forgot about eddy's million dollar cook off and now I want to cover it lol.

Fun Fact. The girl who plays Hallie (Actress Elisabeth Harnois) Also played Alice in the 90s Disney Channel Show Adventures In Wonderland a strange and Literally very 90s version of Alice In Wonderland. But it's 90s in a fun way it can be a tiny bit cringe here and there but it's harmless cringe and sometimes can be part of the fun. And the show can be a delight. Also The Hatter and The Hare are relationship goals and I am 100% here for it. Some of the episodes can be found on KZbin and all of them are on Disney+. Thank you for the review this was funny, interesting, I am glad to see someone else remembers this and finds the cringy stuff cringe as well. I subbed to your channel and can't wait to see more. Good Job Avery keep it up Your fans (I now being an instant fan like omg this was great) Support you on your review video journey and whatever else you decide to make

The illusion is forever broken. 😂 I seriously considered wearing this sweater with jeans and carrying a library card and going as arthur for Halloween. 😂

[@Altmetalpunk]

So apparently it's not on Disney+ because of licensing issues. I'd imagine it's with the theme music because that's usually what streaming licensing issues are about. Also my school was pretty small but we usually had at least 2 dances a year. Sometimes 3 or 4.

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

Interesting! Thanks for the info!

[@HeyItsMe1224]

It makes sense considering Will Fredle was huge in this time playing Eric matthews on boy meets world.

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

Very true! I miss seeing him in stuff.

[@LordVolkov]

The president in this is Dabney Coleman. He's one of those 'that guy' actors who pops up in a lot of stuff. If you haven't seen him in Cloak & Dagger (1984), I highly recommend it as a dark children's movie.

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

I know I recognize him but didn't know his name. I've been meaning to watch cloak and dagger so I definitely will soon!

I'm 3 years late to the party but this actually wasn't a DCOM. It aired on Disney Channel eventually but it was originally a made-for-tv movie that aired on the Wonderful World Of Disney on ABC

[@roux823]

This was one of my favs. I love Will Friedle. Please do Model Behavior. I just watched it again and realized that the lead is Juliet from Psych. With that and Lassie in Luck of the Irish, there is some weird DCOM/ Psych thing happening

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

I will definitely look into that one! I adore Maggie Lawson. 😊 Will friedle is such an underrated actor. His story about being a working actor with severe anxiety has helped me a lot in my own career in filmmaking.

[@milo-ru3hc]

@@AveryTalksAboutStuff i’d definitely watch that if u ever get around to it! it’s definitely the heaviest DCOM there is, i think i remember it so strongly especially because when i watched the movie as a 7 year old i didn’t know what was going to happen in the third act, and iirc they showed actual news footage on TVs in the movie. so it was pretty shocking at the time.

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

@@milo-ru3hc yeah I haven't seen it in ages but I should watch it again and try to put a video together. It definitely was heavy for a DCOM.

Damn, a 27 minute review on a 90 minute movie. Overall good points though. Will Friedle was one of my favorite Disney actors. He had anxiety attacks; so he switched to voice acting. Randomly , I also used to drive a 03 BMW with a brown leather jacket like that one.

[@AveryTalksAboutStuff]

Thank you! Yeah I think he's really an underrated dude to this day. He's very funny.

[@conveniencestoreentertainm1968]

I will admit the fact that you didn't mention that Will Friedle (Duncan) and Elisabeth Harnois (Hallie) are both from 2 different Disney shows Will being from Boy Meets World as Eric and Elisabeth from Adventures In Wonderland as Alice is impressive. But I oddly loved this movie when I was younger and kind of wish they would put it on Disney+ but hey this was a great review as always Avery.
