And I love Peter Pan of course because I didn't want to grow up.
The best things said about it
Tinkerbell of course created by the great and wonderful JM Barry author of the play and then eventually the novel Peter Pan um what a great character and what a great just thing that JM Barry launched into the world like all about Peter Pan.
There's two great moments in um there's probably more than two but two of my favorite moments in h literature if I can use that term very broadly the the very last Calvin and Hobs cartoon and the end of AA Winnie the Pooh series Christopher Robin series... and Peter Pan is an obvious another example.
Like it's just like I you could make one argument that Noah Holly is doing it as this kind of like grounding force in the world of the show, but it feels like a Disney tie in where they're like maybe people will be reminded to go stream the original Peter Pan because of this or watch Ice Age the.
And Neverland in Peter Pan is a dystopian.

M. Barrie during an episode of Stuff You Should Know.
