I really wish we would get more Phineas and Ferb in the parks. They would've worked well at EPCOT.

I was looking forward to DuckTales coming to World Showcase, but now isn’t really the best time to be implementing this per say. It probably will be when things mostly go back to normal...whenever that is.

Bump, apparently DuckTales season 3 will be it’s last. I really liked the show saw all of Season 1 and 2 was meaning to go back and watch Season 3 but it looks like that will be it’s last. I really liked what I saw of the show if this report is true it’s sad to see it go.
However, wonder if this effects this project at EPCOT. They always announce a project on a popular IP at the time, take forever to build it and then this happens.

Do you have the link to that news?

Interestingly enough, the world showcase adventure stuff usually opens up towards the end or after the show's run.
Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure opened in 2009, but the show ended in 2007.
Phineas and Ferb World Showcase Adventure opened in 2012, show ending 3 years later. (I guess that's a better run)
Honestly, as long as the characters are interesting enough, and the attraction/activity is fun enough, it doesn't matter how long the show lasts.

Collider, Drew Taylor on Twitter. Various other outlets, it was trending.
Ducktales is returning!
Anybody watching the new season? Apparently, A Goofy Movie is canon. As is Rescue Rangers.

I don’t see why they would cancel this. Scrooge McDuck, Huey, Dewey, Louie and (especially) Donald are all legacy Disney characters that have been around for years, and will always maintain a degree of relevancy within the company.
Like when a ride based on a movie opens AFTER the movie, this attraction can open after the show. It isn’t too hard to hire the voice cast back for a day, or get some of the animation team to animate some bits, which I’m sure they’ve already done.

Perhaps DuckTales is cancelled because of the upcoming Darkwing Duck series? That will have some of the same characters.

Aside from the popularity of the Ducks in Europe, I can see Disney really touting this as a “new experience” for EPCOT as a paltry phase 2. It would also read really well because like, it’s a no-touch game, it works directly in your app. Completely COVID-friendly offering.
They should be fast-tracking this.

Or because it aired on Disney XD which doesn't get much viewership compared to Disney Channel and Disney Junior.

It's rumored that it's handled by a different crew.
This! But then why did they switch back to XD when it was previously on Disney main.

Yeah, I actually think this is a perfect thing to be opening up in this COVID era. Easy to do it socially distanced and uses your personal phone.

I'm not so sure the actual TV channel gets as much views at all anymore with Disney+ being a thing anyways.

Well...at least this show should live on in EPCOT. I guess that is better then nothing.

It is. Absolute insult to Frank and the entire crew. They made a perfect Darkwing for the reboot, and it gets thrown out.

So has there been word on an opening day for this? Since it uses a guest’s own phone and affects things at a distance, it seems like it would be generally COVID friendly. It is poisoned it might actually roll out when Ratatouille opens?
