    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Please, please -- no offense was ment to you or your family by my comment on my family being "weird." So sorry -- it's hard conveying humor and intent in this medium. I'll keep my keyboard quiet.

    About passes -- I always copy the BACK of any hopper passes I get. If they're ever lost or stolen, you're screwed unless you have that copy. With the copy, Disney will help you -- without it, forget about Ohana's. As far as the schedule and staying with our kids, well, this again shows...

    The Fan's Guide to WDW -- Travel Channel

    Mucho Thanko Thanks Kwit35, Jcamacam, DivineMadness7, and the many others who have sent words of affirmation. Though I've got a pretty tough skin, you can't believe how exposed you feel after something like this! Thanks again for carrying a Disney attitude!

    "Magic Water" Nothing like that "magic water" in your socks, squishing in your sneakers -- and that wonderful smell when you get back to your hotel that night and take them off. Ah, the memories! Remember to keep your feet up when going down the big hill! BTW -- General, your a gentleman...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    So Much to do Wow -- lots of Q's Everyone is asking about the schedules I made. Yes, I make a schedule and then make copies for everyone in our family. We're not bound to it, but it's a guide. People make mucho $ doing this in books, so we've developed our own. We like keeping track of...

    The Fan's Guide to WDW -- Travel Channel

    Whoaboy I can't tell you how weird this is! One thing I didn't expect in these threads was the assumptions many make over a one hour video on expanded-basic cable. BTW, I'm David -- the guy in the video with the teens. And really, I'm saying all this with a quirky smile on my face. First...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Oh, I will have a good time. I'm not too worried about being sited if I can get a free coconut smoothy at Boma's. This 15-minutes is more than I've expected. Many emails and phone calls today. Ah, the life of an expanded-basic cable one-time co-star!

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Not nosey We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, checked in at the AKL (where they gave us park passes and some Disney Dollars spending cash), and ran over to MK for the evening. Monday was all day at DAK and evening in MK filming. Tuesday we ran over for a morning in Epcot, at noon I went to the...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Well, I can only speak for my family (they kept us away from the other groups). We were asked about how we would plan a day at the Animal Kingdom. They wanted us to spend the whole day there with the Sunrise Safari, and I told them that if it was us planning, we'd never do a whole day at AK...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Understanding I think you all get what the Travel Channel and Disney were trying to do through the production -- even if you don't like it. If we weren't in it, we'd be making the same comments. But when you consider there is no WDWMagic Channel, you get a better idea of the demographics...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    That was our same thought. We shot from 5:30am to 11:00pm on the first day, and 5 more hours the second day. There was SO MUCH left out. We were told that the Discovery HD version has a whopping 9-minutes more that what we saw on the Travel Channel. I'm anxious to get that version on DVD.

    Fan's Guide to WDW--Episode #1

    Yeah, that "quack" was me. I'm really feeling the burn here. The itenary was somewhat followed in the show -- Monday<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p> <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    The group at the production company told us which park and resort we would be reporting on. It made some sence when you think about it -- the extended family with young kids at the MK, the honeymooners at Epcot, the young adults at MGM. We were a little disappointed when they assigned us...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Yes, they did take out quite a bit. For instance, we took 4 rides in a row on Primevil Whirl that didn't show up at all. We also had a real funny experience on Kali River Rapids -- another family took the two trips with us. We had our poncho's, they didn't. The reason you don't have any...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    More Yes, I'm the guy with the family at the AKL in the production. Thanks to those who gave words of support. The production took two full days to shoot, and of course they shot the most popular rides and didn't take any quotes about unofficial web sites, crowd adversions, and how to do...

    Fan's Guide to WDW--Episode #1

    I'm on the show Hi folks -- former lurker and poster to this board. I've been watching everyone while the first word went out about this show, and would have posted earlier, but the production company asked us not to post until after the production aired. I'm the guy on the Ultimate Fan's...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Finally! Now that the show has aired, I can talk about the Travel Channel show on the Ultimate Disney Fan's Guide to Walt Disney World. I'm a lurker and former contributor to this board, and we're the Lloyd family on this show that premiered today. It was such a hoot! Tonight we had a...
