What Do You See: Princess Portraits: Mama Odie welcomes us to the bayou, where Ray's firefly family has just outlined a picture of Tiana. Mama Odie proposes a game to test the viewers' knowledge of princesses. Ray's firefly family will arrange themselves to create a picture of one of the princesses. If the viewer correctly identifies which princess is seen in the formation they make, they are rewarded with a brief - hip, and slightly irreverent - re-telling of that princess' story, which plays as a montage on the surface of the water.

• Music & More: "Never Knew I Needed" Music Video by Ne-Yo/ Dylan & Cole Sprouse: Blu-ray™ Is Suite!

• Backstage Disney

• Magic in the Bayou: The Making of The Princess & The Frog: A freewheeling, documentary-style ramble through the making of Disney's newest animated film. This piece will capture both the spirit and the story of how THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG emerged from a vague concept in the minds of Musker and Clements, to become a splashy, lavish animated film set in the enchanting, mythical world of New Orleans and the surrounding bayous.
