Spirited
In most parts of the world, Good afternoon is a perfectly polite and harmless greeting.
But inSpirited, Apple TV+s gleefully irreverent 2022 holiday musical, the phrase becomes something far more outrageous.
The song prompted viewers to ask, “Was good afternoon an insult in Victorian times?”
The truth is more interesting than you might think.
Regardless, how did such an absurd musical number come to life and why does it work so well?
The number captures a turning point in Clint and Presents relationship.
Its Clints moment of dominance, but it also exposes cracks in Presents morals and complicates their relationship.
Also,Dame Judi Denchmakes a cameo appearance during the song.
Plus, a fake-out death at the end of the number is certain to get a few laughs.

“Good Afternoon” proves thatthe cast ofSpiritedcan pull off an impressive and hilarious musical number.
However,it was made the basis of theSpiritedmusical number because Scrooge barks Good afternoon!
all the time inA Christmas Carol, which is what the 2022 Christmas movie is based on.
My number one wish for this project is that there is a song called Good Afternoon.
Reynolds also commented on the song’s meaning in that same interview.
He said that his kids have taken the phrase “Good afternoon” and run with it.
My kids do it now.
And also alternatively take offense to it.
And I think its fantastic.
Thats where I feel like the job is occasionally effective.
And the rest, as they say, is history.
