One Day at Disney is a fascinating and informative television series produced by Disney and premiering on Disney+ in 2019. The series takes a deep dive into the daily grind of talented and creative Disney employees, showcasing their skills and the diverse array of jobs they hold.

The series consists of 52 episodes, and each episode features an employee who has been working for the company for a long time, and is currently holding a position they are passionate about. These employees come from various fields, including animation, music, sports, and more.

Eric Goldberg, a legendary animator, provides the show's narration, giving the series an immediate emotional depth, connecting the viewer with each of the featured employees. Alongside Goldberg is a range of hosts, including Sage Steele and Katie Whetsell, who bring their own set of skills and interests to the show.

As the series unfolds, we see the inner workings of the entire Disney company, with a focus on the hundreds of different roles necessary for Disney's success. We meet employees from all corners of the world, from Disneyland in California to the Disney Cruise Line across the seas, and from Marvel to ESPN.

Each episode typically follows one employee through their workday, giving us insight into their creative processes and the challenges they face. We watch as employees build intricate costumes, produce world-class fireworks displays, create intricate animations, and more. The attention to detail and dedication to their craft are evident throughout the show, and it's genuinely inspiring to watch Disney employees engage with their work with such passion and vigor.

Viewers will also learn about each employee's personal backstory and journey, providing an emotional resonance that makes the show incredibly engaging. We see how their experiences have shaped the work they do and what motivates them to work for the Disney company. As a result, we become invested in these employees' stories and often find ourselves rooting for them.

Additionally, One Day at Disney offers a behind-the-scenes look at how Disney creates magic, showcasing how a seemingly effortless 20-minute fireworks display takes months of preparation and detail-oriented work. The show outlines how each employee's work contributes to the company's overall success.

The series offers a unique glimpse into the world of Disney, one that many viewers may not be familiar with. The show highlights plenty of the company's history and how they continue to push boundaries creatively. Each episode is packed with facts and details that not even the most well-informed Disney fan would be privy to, offering an enriching and educational experience.

In conclusion, One Day at Disney is a stunning series that offers a peek into the inner workings of one of the biggest entertainment companies in the world. Its focus on individual employees and their personal stories brings a deep humanity to the show, making it a fascinating and engaging watch. It's an inspiring and informative show that will leave viewers with a newfound appreciation for the creativity and dedication that goes into making Disney's magic come to life.
