The disneys great escapes one is not new, we already have it on DVR, but its new for you/. All it portains to is the Resorts, if i remember they give you some of the better resorts. It may be a samantha brown one too.
I could have sworn it was new, as I've been looking for Disney specials on the Travel Channel for over a year now and this is the first time I've ever seen it.
Unfortunately, we got a big rain downpour and it seems like all you have to do to make the signal go out is to spit in the air next to the dish. So, due to the darn rain, the signal went out in the middle of the show, so part of the segment on the Beach Club and Wilderness Lodge was lost. Oh well, it could have been worse...it could have gone out for the whole show and I wouldn't have seen any of it.
Although I was happy to see it, I have a couple gripes about it:
1) I wish they would have left out DisneyLand and the Cruise line and used that time to talk about the Polynesian, Contemporary, or one of the other deluxe or Vacation Club resorts that have never been showcased on one of these shows.
2) Although it was nice to see what, to me, is a new show, I wish they would focus on other resorts than the ones that Samantha Brown has already done. And speaking of Samantha Brown, while it was cool to see her in there, it seems like all they did was re-use alot of the shots from her previous shows on the SAME hotels and use a different narrator to talk about them...although he said word for word some of the same things she said. I know for a fact that Samantha Brown said, in the same words as this narrator, "Walt Disney World has 22 Resort Hotels of various price ranges, to meet virtually everyone's taste and budget". (I probably botched the quote, but whatever it was, he said it word for word the way she said it)
Oh well, I shouldn't complain, since it WAS a show I haven't seen before, and they DID have a couple WDW resorts on there that I haven't seen showcased. I just hope they replay it again soon so I can re-DVR it...without a rainstorm to knock the signal out.
We don't have DVR, but I'm really thinking about calling to get it. :lol:
