Citizens come and go each & every year -- I wouldn't even begin assuming that Disney is cutting the "show" at all. As mentioned, Mimi's portrayer is leaving of her own accord (TV). The others, well, we can only assume that they were not as well-liked by guests. Betty was HILARIOUS, but...

Well, it's that time of year again -- actor contact negotiations. A number of Citizens were not renewed (and some chose to leave). Here's the list of characters we won't be seeing anymore (at least in their current incarnations): Betty Shambles Mimi Kaboom (the actress is leaving of her own...

The actress that plays Rosie retired -- I've seen/heard that she does make occasional appearances.

Here's another great thread here at wdwmagic about the Citizens -- info, names, who's who, etc: http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/citizens-of-hollywood-who-where-when.849023/ Yup, Francis was one of our family's favorites, as well!

The actor that portrayed Francis Floot was let-go by Disney. He stayed in the Orlando area, performing, but has just recently made a huge move to NY (I believe). Mimi Kaboom has undergone a "transformation". A new actress is now playing the part. Instead of being from Europe, the "new" Mimi is...

Exactly!! When someone tells me they either don't go to the Studios at all, or only rush in & out (for whatever), I just shrug my shoulders and say "ok" -- that's less people in the parks when I'm there, LOL! I'm tired of trying to convince people that it's worth another look -- to slow down &...

Great videos!! Glad y'all had fun -- when's your next trip??

Awesome!!! :-) Sounds like y'all had a great trip -- glad y'all got some good "Citizens" time in. Yes, Buddy has replaced Frederick...

Breaking news: Frederick Lewenoski of the Hollywood Public Works department, has left. The actor has accepted a new gig over at the New Fantasyland (apparently, Disney will be doing some 'Streetmosphere'-type entertainment over there. A new actor/character has been added to the HPW group...

Can't wait to see what you've come up with! :-) But yeah, my wife & I could spend our entire weekend trips at the Studios... As far as the Modern Day crew, we've seen them: - Pre-opening, outside the gates hijinks (getting 'video' of people saying various lines as they make their way to the...

Yup, that was definitely Alberto Dante (who still shows up from time to time). I'm fairly certain it comes down to scheduling -- seems like they want/need at least 7 Citizens (5 are needed for Matchmaker, at least 6 for 99). I'd definitely LOVE to have Bucky back, but he's busy over at Hoop...

Looks like Victoria was out & about recently:

Agreed -- I wish the Facebook had some sort of way to set up & maintain a database of some sort, that could be edited via the Citizens fan page... :-S I did set up a database on the Yahoo group - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/streetmosphere/ - but that group doesn't get any activity, so it's...

Many of the actors have been on extended vacations recently and several others have been working on various other projects in & around Orlando, so yeah, I think many characters, like Veronica, are making more appearances than normal. That said, don't forget about the Hollywood Public Works...

Yup -- Evie won't be back until at least January 2013... :-) She is pretty amazing, tho... But yes, your list is 'current' Citizens is pretty much spot-on. I can't think of any other advice -- and we've been "stalking" for many years now. OH!! Don't forget the Hollywood Public Works...

@maryszhi: Actually, they no longer print specific CoH times in the Times Guide (it just says something like "throughout the day". They appear inside 50's & the Tune-In Lounge and Brown Derby (and sometimes inside Tower of Terror) only when it's raining outside. As far as specific skits and...

According to the TripAdvisor reviews, this is the old Days Inn that is right there off of I-4. Glad to see that it's been re-done!

I haven't stayed there, but check out these reviews over at TripAdvisor. Hope that helps!

I haven't stayed there personally, but the "official Downtown Disney hotels" have to keep up to a particular standard, so I'd be OK with staying there. If you haven't already, check out these TripAdvisor reviews. Hope that helps!

Decent! It was a Sleep Inn many years ago, was renamed Meridian Hotel Orlando, and I believe now is called Galleria! :shrug: My wife and son stayed here last October, and we were pleasantly surprised. We knew we were getting a no-frills place, but it was a last-minute, short, trip so we were...
