You guys expected it to stay in? I figured that was the first song to go.

it’s iconic to the show and isn’t at all controversial.

I originally had some hope for this revamped show but the more details I hear the less excited am. I'm very skeptical of this and am very worried. My opinions of course could change once I see it but right now I'm extremely nervous.

I am hearing mixed reviews of the new show as well.
But to be fair, I think this is to be expected since we are dealing with a ‘legacy show’ that had a strong following.
Interested to see how folks are going to react to the new show.
Couple more days to go…hold on to yer hats!

As long as the reception is positive enough that they don’t tear down the entire attraction, we can always get a revival (or at least some classic songs added back) later when the company decides it needs a cheap gimmick to get people back to the parks.I am hearing mixed reviews of the new show as well.

All we know about the surprise is that it’s a ‘surprising inclusion’ which leads me to believe that it is something with some taste and flavor that hasn’t been watered down by the ‘bland and boring offend nobody’ approach that modern Disney tends to take. Come Again is a very ‘safe’ song with no potential controversy, as is Bear Band Serenade. I was banking on Blood on the Saddle is it would indeed be a ‘surprising inclusion’ that would make many fans happy, but now I have no idea what it could possibly be. None of the other ‘edgy’ songs would be iconic enough to return without feeling out of place. All we can do now is thank the insiders who have been trying to give us tidbits and wait until Wednesday!

I had people saying "ooh it's gonna be there" and "ooh it's gone" for awhile, while it does play into the effects that this is a fickle multibillion organization, it does help me know who to take more seriously when I hear from them.
This isn't gonna be a 'Under New Management' situation, I think it's gonna be a more honest and faithful show than that, but this forum is gonna be divisive over it.

I’m glad that it’ll at least be more faithful to it. Even if it’s not my favorite, the fact that future generations will enjoy the country bears at all I feel is a massive victory even in itself. Although it’s hard with my love of the current show, I’m gonna have to keep an open mind for this. I’m sure it won’t be that bad.

I'd rather have these lovable oafs sing Disney songs and stay around than have one be a bear rug in the queue for Woody's Roundup Sing-Along Adventure.

I’ve never been more happy a rumor was wrong my entire life, though I am not sure if it was ever true in the first place.

I guarantee it was spitballed to replace them with something like that, but I doubt it had any real backing.
The real concern should be the Tiki Room, especially with the rumored "no religious imagery" mandate...

Tough spot,because they can’t just “get rid” of the birds, especially at DL, but tiki is legit in the attractions name. Also Moana is going behind pirates so they can’t do something there at wdw. I guess maybe stitch but even then that show relies on the “tiki gods” for a part of the story. So idk. Maybe turn the tiki faces into rock pile columns that have faces appear When the eyes open, so they “come to life” like the birds and flowers?

Here are all the images from the article. There are some drastic design changes for some of them. This is going to be a very different feeling show. A lot of the costume and design changes are going to take some getting used to. I get henry at least, he kinda looked like Freddy fazbear in his original design.

Finally, Gomer and Al. Gomer looks somewhat similar, while Big al somehow looks even More drunk, I think he even has a slight stubble now. I like that the article includes the very obscure backstories for all the bears from that one book. These imagineers know their stuff ig
