MK Country Bear Jamboree is getting new songs and acts

[EagleScout610]

Relistening to CBMJ while driving home from work and I realized how forced Melvins line of "Not me! I'm scared of swings!" Line after Teddi and Wendell feels. Buffs line of "I'm scared of heights!" works more in a "Oh heh he's up high on the wall yet he's scared of heights" way. Also they missed the chance to have a neat callback to the original by bringing back Henry's "Hold the phone down there, you had your turn!" line while scolding Big Al

So, do we have any idea who the voices aside from Trixie, Wendell and (I think) Teddi are? I recall thinking Buff sounded a bit like Fred Tatasciore to me...

Another swing and miss from Disney. Way to ruin yet another classic!

 

[Jambo Dad]

True. They did their best, and I liked it. I wonder if this is gonna be here for the next 10-20 years tho, or if another show comes in eventually.

If they were smart they would plan something new on a schedule - perhaps every 7-10 years.

 

[EagleScout610]

Hearing a rumor that once the new show opens tommorow the walk arounds will debut their new looks in the park (They're still in the old ones rn) and that Romeo's walkaround will be retired entirely

with the new songs I would say they need to change them even more frequently... 3-5 years...and that would be with seasonal changeouts... The new overlays seem to get stale fast...

Mac McAnally, the guy who did all the music, was likely Shaker.

Apologies if this has already been asked or mentioned, but I noticed in a couple of the online videos of the show that bloggers posted that the beginning of "Try Everything" was cut out - was there some strange copyright concern?

maybe it was because the song is terrible?

If they cut the beginning, why don’t they cut the rest of it while they’re at it! (All joking aside Emily Ann Roberts did a nice job with what she had to do, it’s just impossible to ‘countrify’ that song enough to belong in this show)

Two songs didn't work for me at all... that one and Whole New World... They just don't fit...

“Kiss the Girl” is equally idiotic and terrible.

“Kiss the Girl” is equally idiotic and terrible.

For me all the song felt like the fit, but I would have maybe picked A Guy like You over Fixer Upper.

Is Romeo officially retired as a walk around character?

I'm hearing he's retiring tomorrow. He's out today, so I guess we'll have to see tomorrow

That’s a shame. Why didn’t they update him? They could’ve just gave him the outfit he has in the show!

I think these animatronics feel more alive to me than the TBA ones. Marc Davis design magic I suppose.

It was really well received at the D23 event; I thought it was cute, and I wasn't a fan of the song previously; the slide show was fun with Trixie.

I actually think the slide show is great. Keeps in synch with both the song content and the presentation of the show.
