1
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, let's say good morning to ABC's multi platform

2
00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:06.240
<v Speaker 1>reporter Will Gans. Morning.

3
00:00:06.280 --> 00:00:09.160
<v Speaker 2>Will Hey, good morning, Happy Friday.

4
00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:11.679
<v Speaker 1>Happy Friday. So this weekend you can go on an

5
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:14.759
<v Speaker 1>intergalactic journey. Is it worth taking the trip?

6
00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:18.160
<v Speaker 2>I think it is worth taking. I mean, especially if

7
00:00:18.199 --> 00:00:21.559
<v Speaker 2>you have the kids with you. It's Pixar, and Pixar

8
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:25.480
<v Speaker 2>does what it does so well. You know, last year

9
00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:27.839
<v Speaker 2>we had Inside Out Too, which of course was a

10
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:33.000
<v Speaker 2>billion dollar block block buster box office blockbuster. Yeah, and

11
00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:36.520
<v Speaker 2>this year, Eli Oh is the Pixar offering of the year,

12
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:40.359
<v Speaker 2>and it's about a kid who you know, is struggling

13
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:44.000
<v Speaker 2>at home. He is being taken care of by his aunt,

14
00:00:44.679 --> 00:00:47.280
<v Speaker 2>and he doesn't have a ton of friends. So he

15
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:50.359
<v Speaker 2>is a big sort of space nerd and he's hoping

16
00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:52.520
<v Speaker 2>that aliens will abduct him because he thinks he'll have

17
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:55.759
<v Speaker 2>better luck finding friends and making friends in outer space.

18
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:59.759
<v Speaker 2>And sure enough, that's just what happens. And it's really sweet,

19
00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:04.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's colorful, it's funny, and in classic picks

20
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:08.120
<v Speaker 2>Our fashion, it tugs at the heart strings. So yeah,

21
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:10.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I had a great time watching this in

22
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:12.519
<v Speaker 2>theaters and you know, you know me, I got a

23
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:16.439
<v Speaker 2>little weepy too at certain parts, but it's so sweet.

24
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:18.719
<v Speaker 2>It is sweet. So I think if you do have

25
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.079
<v Speaker 2>the family and everyone's looking for something to do, maybe

26
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:23.319
<v Speaker 2>to beat the heat. There's a huge heat wave this weekend.

27
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.000
<v Speaker 2>El ee oh, is a great option to do that.

28
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:28.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where you are, will, but there's no

29
00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:31.599
<v Speaker 1>heat wave here. It's just going to be sunny and gorgeous.

30
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:34.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, isn't that sort of par for the course

31
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 2>for you guys. I'm jealous. I'm jealous. We're expecting like

32
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:41.040
<v Speaker 2>triple digit heat here in New York over the coming week.

33
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:45.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah eh, and you guys have you have humidity.

34
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:47.760
<v Speaker 2>Too, exactly exactly all right.

35
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>So if you're wanting to get a break from the heat,

36
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:53.439
<v Speaker 1>Ello maybe the place to be. And if you're just

37
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:56.640
<v Speaker 1>being a couch potato like I am so often and

38
00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:58.920
<v Speaker 1>want to keep yourself planted right here on earth, where

39
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:00.439
<v Speaker 1>what are we looking at? The stream?

40
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 2>There's a new series on Netflix called The Waterfront, and

41
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:07.079
<v Speaker 2>it's sort of like if you combined the Outer Banks

42
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:10.960
<v Speaker 2>with Ozarks or maybe with like Yellowstone or something like that.

43
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:13.879
<v Speaker 2>So it's a very wealthy family in North Carolina and

44
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:18.199
<v Speaker 2>they own a fishing enterprise, a fishing business, and they

45
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:20.719
<v Speaker 2>sort of are having to do increasingly shady things to

46
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:26.280
<v Speaker 2>stay float, no pun intended. And it's like, is this

47
00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:29.840
<v Speaker 2>show gonna win Emmy Awards? No? Is it going to

48
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.919
<v Speaker 2>break any you know, barriers in terms of its writing

49
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:36.560
<v Speaker 2>or it's acting. Probably not. But it's dramatic, like you know,

50
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:39.719
<v Speaker 2>in episode one, they are threatening this guy by chumming

51
00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:41.759
<v Speaker 2>the waters around the boat and dunking his head into

52
00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:43.719
<v Speaker 2>the ocean and there are sharks swimming around. So it's

53
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:47.879
<v Speaker 2>like it's dramatic, and it is, you know, a family

54
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:51.520
<v Speaker 2>drama that you know, it's sort of it's fun to watch.

55
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:54.000
<v Speaker 2>It's easy to understand. You're not going to have to

56
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:57.080
<v Speaker 2>do any major critical thinking here. So if that's sort

57
00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:00.520
<v Speaker 2>of what you're looking for, you know, it's a good summa.

58
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and will is it another rich people bad series?

59
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:06.319
<v Speaker 2>That's exactly what it is.

60
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Okay, that's what they all are these days. Okay.

61
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I am very excited about this one. I am a

62
00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:14.759
<v Speaker 1>big Barbara Walters fand I mean because she was such

63
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:18.479
<v Speaker 1>a pioneer in the broadcasting business. Yes, tell us about

64
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:20.199
<v Speaker 1>the documentary that's coming out.

65
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:24.719
<v Speaker 2>So Barbara Walters tell me everything is. It comes out

66
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.240
<v Speaker 2>on Monday, and I know typically we cover what's available

67
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:29.520
<v Speaker 2>this weekend, but it starts streaming Monday on Hulu. I

68
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:32.919
<v Speaker 2>have seen it and it's fascinating. It's like about her

69
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.639
<v Speaker 2>rise to you know, who she became, and all of

70
00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:39.080
<v Speaker 2>the glass ceilings that she shattered, and you know how

71
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:42.360
<v Speaker 2>she wasn't allowed to ask any questions in her first

72
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:45.000
<v Speaker 2>on air job until the mail anchor had asked three

73
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.759
<v Speaker 2>and you know, things like that, and you know, similar

74
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.919
<v Speaker 2>to the Martha Stewart documentary that came out a while ago,

75
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:53.280
<v Speaker 2>it's not just like, oh, she was amazing and she

76
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:55.680
<v Speaker 2>was perfect and she you know, broke all these barriers.

77
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:59.000
<v Speaker 2>You come away feeling like, Okay, she was a complicated figure,

78
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.479
<v Speaker 2>and you know, her family life was complicated. And I

79
00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:05.400
<v Speaker 2>went to the red carpet of their premiere at Tribeca

80
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:07.080
<v Speaker 2>and I was asking people who worked with her all

81
00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:09.439
<v Speaker 2>about her, and you really get the sense that, like,

82
00:04:09.759 --> 00:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>while she did certainly reach down and grab people's hands

83
00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:15.560
<v Speaker 2>and pull them up and you know, take their career

84
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:18.240
<v Speaker 2>to the next level, she was also hard to work

85
00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:20.680
<v Speaker 2>with often, and that's sort of the vibe you get

86
00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:24.160
<v Speaker 2>from this documentary, So there's unaired footage that you see

87
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:26.560
<v Speaker 2>of her, and then you know, it talks to a

88
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:28.279
<v Speaker 2>lot of the people that knew her best and worked

89
00:04:28.279 --> 00:04:30.439
<v Speaker 2>with her the most, and it's a fascinating look at,

90
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, someone who deserves all of the fame that

91
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 2>they found and you know, and everything else that happened.

92
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:39.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Right, And you know, I think that like with

93
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:42.680
<v Speaker 1>someone like her, where she was breaking those glass ceilings

94
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:45.879
<v Speaker 1>and getting into the man's world, I mean, she had

95
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:47.399
<v Speaker 1>to be hard to work with. She had to be

96
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:49.279
<v Speaker 1>a bull in the china shop, you know. So I'm

97
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:50.519
<v Speaker 1>going to I'm going to give her a little bit

98
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:51.879
<v Speaker 1>of a pass for that. I think if she would

99
00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:53.839
<v Speaker 1>have been nice and sweet, she wouldn't have got where

100
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:54.079
<v Speaker 1>she could.

101
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:56.399
<v Speaker 2>It wouldn't have worked. Yeah, one hundred percent. Yeah. And

102
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:57.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, one of the other things that I find

103
00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:01.199
<v Speaker 2>super fascinating is like her contentious relationship with Diane Sawyer

104
00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:03.600
<v Speaker 2>when they were both working for ABC. You know. So

105
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:06.480
<v Speaker 2>it is like there's it does a good job of

106
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:10.480
<v Speaker 2>touching on every aspect of you know, her career. So

107
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:13.120
<v Speaker 2>it is, you know, it was it was very a

108
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:14.560
<v Speaker 2>very fascinating watch.

109
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:18.399
<v Speaker 1>All right. ABC's multi platform reporter Will Ganz, thanks so much.

110
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:19.879
<v Speaker 1>Have a wonderful weekend.

111
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:21.079
<v Speaker 2>You too, Amy.

112
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Take care all right, talk to you next week. Let's

113
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:25.399
<v Speaker 1>get back to a few of the stories we're working
