What used to be different (other than characters)?

"We're retheming one of Tony Baxter's rides." *Many disappointments later* "...Tony Baxter, would you like to retheme one of your rides?" Yeah, that'd be uncomfortably close to admitting Tiana's is a downgrade from Splash.

What are the odds the new show ends up having no animatronics?

With this track record, maybe they should change the app to say "Temporarily Open" when it runs instead of the usual opposite.

I'm not going over to any of these...but I'll bet anything they're filled with Wish stuff.

The pickle dog sounds really good. I will probably buy one, feel like a schmuck for the price, then maybe feel tempted but never actually buy again.

There's a ton of tie-in foods in the Confectionary and at least one expensive painting in the Town Square Theater art store. They really went all out on everything but making a good, functioning ride.

This land never sounds like a good idea to me. What would they do that would look good in daylight? A Lovely Midafternoon at Bald Mountain kind of takes the eerieness away.

Oh no. The "meaningless nods to things we've ruined" strategy is leaking out of Epcot.

I miss the show so much already. Every time I rewatched there were people that burst out laughing after the Buford punchline. Waiting for it became part of the fun.

I'm partial to Wendell. Mama Don't Whoop Little Buford was the funniest part of the show.

My policy for merchandise for "plussed" attractions is "You break it, I don't buy it".

Well, if it's their last set with the original costumes then they're missing it due to rain. No final sets end well for Country Bears, apparently. (At least Wendell is the only one I missed. Then again, of the four he's probably my favorite...)

If they opened the normal queue they would have people constantly comparing wait times to Splash's and trying to gauge whether they spent millions to get roughly the same amount of guests to ride.

It's still called Country Bear (Musical) Jamboree. So, what, it's supposed to appeal to people who don't like country music, but are still open to trying out a country music show, but want songs that aren't country, but are okay with songs in the style of country? I would call that a...

And no one involved in it erected a statue to how well they were fulfilling Walt's dream.

I don't still have the number, sorry. I would try looking up a number for PhotoPass, calling, and if they tell you the 45 day thing ask if someone keeps the photos longer; hopefully they would provide you with the number. (I'm not completely sure if it's specifically Kodak.)

Did Old Epcot contain any large momuments to how proud Walt would have been of the designers? Or is that solely a thing the New Epcot people thought would be a good idea?

Kodak (? The number you get off the little PhotoPass help card) holds them for longer than Disney. They were able to look back a year for me, much longer than Disney keeps them. A decade is a very long shot, but that would be your best bet. I don't know if that's the number you get if you look...

I didn't see the show until 2020, I was in my 20s and needed to be forced into it because I thought it looked stupid, and it completely won me over. Just tossing it out there because I'm tired of hearing people talk like only nostalgic people liked the show.
