So after a while of waiting to see if my brother would rejoin me in watching WandaVision (he stopped after Ep. 4 because it was "too Marvel"), I started watching again on my own. By this time Disney+ had forgotten that I exist, so it had lost my place and started playing episode 1 again (this is an oversimplification; it remembered which episodes I had watched but still started again on Ep. 1, possibly because when I watched it the first time I couldn't be bothered to sit through the FIFTEEN MINUTES of credits).
Anyway, I went back to the select episode screen, so the screen went black. However, the credits music kept playing and I noticed something...
The inclusion of the above clip technically makes this a Christmas post, so it goes in the Christmas playlist
But you're probably thinking "No, it's just a coincidence. It's literally two notes." And if they were pretty much any other pair of notes, I might be inclined to believe you. However, these two notes are C and C, a note combination that appears in pretty much no other song.
Anyone who's currently thinking Somewhere Over the Rainbow, congratulations, you know your music! But sadly not well enough. SOtR's first two notes are C-C, but they go up, whereas WV and S(WdIB) go down.
N.B. In case you're not aware (or haven't worked it out), 'Povenmire', who is credited on most of these clips, is the same person: Dan Povenmire, TikTok star and writer/co-creator of Phineas and Ferb.
Also check out this crossover:
Visuals/Dialogue: Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension - Povenmire, Marsh et al, 2011;
Music: Portals, Silvestri, 2019
Look out for another post about that video soon. No, I don't know when.
It's interesting that all of these properties (P&F, Marvel, Muppets, Pixar) are all owned by the same company, who actually have a copyright law named after their own character!
You can watch WandaVision, P&F, P&F: Across The 2nd Dimension, The Incredibles, The Muppet Christmas Carol, P&F: MissionMarvel and Avengers: Endgame on Disney+. Series 35 of Casualty is available on BBC iPlayer. Dan Povenmire is available on TikTok, Cameo and YouTube. The Wizard of Oz is available on several things, but I don't know what in the UK.

Thanks, everyone, for signing up for the quiz! This year we have more teams than ever before, so competition will be fierce! To remind you all, the theme is Posters, meaning that I will give a brief description of a Christmas Movie poster and you have to guess which movie the poster refers to. In your signup automated reply, you should have received the following clue, worth 50 points: A man in a red cardigan looks at the camera in distress. He is surrounded by children dressed as biblical characters. Most people correctly guessed that this was 2009’s Nativity : This is the only occasion the actual poster will be included; if you want to check the accuracy of my descriptions for later entries, you will have to Google them yourselves. I will now reiterate the rules: At 11:00 GMT every weekday AND Saturday (sorry; I forgot that I also created clues for Saturdays – blame me for writing the quiz in April) until 25 December, the clue will be emailed to you.
