ABC is bringing fans a lovely night this week, with a reunion of “Rogers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella” coming on Tuesday. But if you miss it live, don’t worry. It’s definitely possible to watch it again elsewhere.
Back in 1997, “Rogers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella” came as part of “The Wonderful World of Disney.” In it, pop star Brandy starred as Cinderella, with Whitney Houston as her fairy godmother, marking the first Black Cinderella and Fairy Godmother ever. For a long time, it was, well, impossible, to watch it anywhere, as it wasn’t streaming. But, in February of last year, Disney rectified that. Now, in honor of the 25th anniversary of the movie, “Cinderella: The Reunion, A Special Edition of 20/20” will air on ABC on Tuesday night.
