Tinfoil Time: Maybe it was supposed to fail all along. In a "you never want to be the guy who replaces 'The Guy'" kind of way, perhaps Disney put in something they knew would fail, just to make whatever they intend to end up with look better by comparison.
Or maybe GRRM needs to hurry up and release TWOW so that I'm not spending all of my time on crackpot theories.

Never saw the lumberjack show, and can't say I was really all that excited about seeing it.
Although I would happily have experienced it rather than Off Kilter.
My God they were boring!
Looking forward to something fresh!

No no no..... It really was just an accident that the lumberjacks made it to Epcot. The guy that found them said he had no intention of actually bringing them into the company.
And I know the powers that be in California received people's thoughts on the new show shortly after it started.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Imagine the world's worst job exit interview.
"Sorry we have to let you go, but things are just not working out with your performance feedback."
"I understand. I appreciate you at least giving me the chance."
"Oh, that was a misunderstanding. We hired you by mistake."
Talk about receiving a kick & a punch at the same time.

If you miss all the noise and exhaust, leaf blower season is currently in bloom. Snow blowers shortly thereafter, and then there is an extended lawn mower season. Just step outside pretty much whenever the sun is shining and you will be serenaded. We also join in the desire to have changes, but when something doesn't work, the change needs to be quicker.

I have it on good word that the show to replace the lumberjacks has been contracted.
The plan is to truck in 1/2 an acre of tar sand 3 times a day and show the refining process.
The refining process will be fueled by the recently discovered crude oil field on site.
Apparently the original body and bones of EPCOT Center have decomposed at such a rate that they have become a viable fossil fuel.
The show will be accompanied by a new and exciting globe shaped foam head character signing the song Killing Me Softly.

I think part of the reason it took so long for Disney to drop the contract with the Lumberjacks was that on their end they had to do everything they could to ensure the group's success. The log rolling pool isn't that old.

Pretty sure it was a year contract.

I still think removing the stage completely and setting up a permanent counter-service cheddar cheese soup, pretzel, and Moosehead building (similar to Yorkshire County Fish Shop) is a better way to go. Add in a few wood-looking tables and log-shaped chairs and you'll have an area that holds the same number of guests (averaged over a period of time) than any performance based show ever could. Performances cost money, cheddar cheese soup and beer make money. Cirque du Soleil is Canadian... toss in a face painted juggler in tights and an accordion player on stilts and call it a day.
The above paragraph was written with an equal amounts of satire and fear that it might actually give someone an idea... and become a reality.

I don't think Disney contracted with them, expecting them to fail. Otherwise, they wouldn't have kept tweaking the stage and adding the water tank for the addition of log rolling to their 'act'. It really appealed to kids walking by, but, they're not the ones buying tickets and covering their ears!
