It's a bunch of junk!

It’s the only parade I’ve ever given a damn about. Everything else is a bore.

This is actually how I feel about Paint the Night. I would enjoy a few changes to that show, but I find it to be lightyears better than MSEP.

I’m honestly sad I’ll miss it!

Cmon MSEP has the baroque hoedown. Paint the Night plays an annoying Pop song over and over. MSEP is Classic Disney. PTN Is mostly Pixar, going down Main Street and wrapping around the Matterhorn? Might as well call it the Pixar Night parade. MSEP is the easy winner.

what's stopping them from running PTN in DCA, exactly?

Pondering this bizarre and sudden news a bit more...
Do you think anyone in TDA realizes how desperate and panicky and weird this makes them look? It's not an attractive leadership vibe.
It's just not a cohesive or long term thinking marketing message to give out. Randomly dropping the tired old MSEP back into the park. Again. For August and September. Without any warning. Because Star Wars Land.
You really do have to feel sorry for them, as I can't imagine the stressed out conference rooms and office suites where this decision was made must be much fun to hang out in all day.

I, too, think of my commemorative “Final Season” lightbulb every time they bring this parade back. Which has been like 8 or 9 times at this point.
For anyone wondering, that “Final Season” of the parade was twenty three years ago. Ho hum.

Well, you know, they added a big new float to it last summer and invested in overdue maintenance and reworked some choreography and costumes, and got it all running like a top, looking great, exciting the crowds, making people dance.
So you can't just bring that back. Because TDA. Ahora!

1996
Gas was $1.19 a gallon
Bill Clinton was re-elected to a second term as President
Friends was the #1 show on network TV, but the smart kids were watching Seinfeld
The price of an adult ticket to Disneyland was raised $1.00 to $36.00
Paul Pressler announced a second theme park to be built next door, Disney's California Adventure
And the Main Street Electrical Parade glowed away forever.

Forth time (Three if you count Disneyland).How many times now has this parade returned?
And this was obviously planned months ago. So don’t go there!

And the parade is almost 50 years ago.Have they lost their flipping minds?!?
Is the panic in TDA over a floundering Star Wars Land really this bad? Or is the Resistance ride really that delayed that it won't open before Thanksgiving? Or is it a combination of both?
You just have to feel sorry for them at this point.

Don't forget the "Farewell Season".
Billboards from 1996
And the Disneyland entrance sign.
