Muppets overhaul...

So IDF is virtually impossible to see, O‘Canada is evicted, and AmAd is closing at the same time.

Brilliant.

O'Canada is evicted? No more Martin Short? I have not been privy to the changes in Canada. Bad on me.

Canada Far and Wide replaced O Canada a couple of years ago. But both get booted during Food and Wine.

I see no reason why a Rosie or Gas Station gossiper couldn’t be reskinned to a minority with no issues. Other then that though, you would need a major script revision.

Either of those would be easy and diversify the "cast" without being historically inaccurate or requiring a major rewrite. These are the types of changes that should be made for inclusiveness because there is no reason for anybody who isn't a hard core racist to have any issue.

I don't fancy over Schitt's Creek overlay of it..Martin Short's version was much better IMO..But, then that Fastpass for Soarin joke at the end sounds sad to hear if they were still showing it..

The updated refurbishment calendar currently shows The American Adventure reopens December 17th.

I understand she’s the new voice of Ben Franklin.

Yesterday, The American Adventure was showing hours beginning December 17th on the Walt Disney World website, however it did not open at EPCOT today and the ability to look at the calendar has been removed.

*Editing to add the Walt Disney World website now currently shows the refurbishment has been extended through Sunday, December 18th.

Last week when I asked the CMs, they told me there was no announced date.

 

[marni1971]

Soon.

 

[castlecake2.0]

Soon.

It sure what they were doing there last week but it sounded like they were building a whole new show building

 

[MisterPenguin]

Soon.

Indeed, very...

The lack of a date is not an indication that it will not reopen.

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea would like a word with you...

 

[DCBaker]

On the Walt Disney World website, it appears the refurbishment for The American Adventure has been extended, with no end date as today it shows closed as far out as the refurbishment calendar goes.

I don’t think this is a budget cut bc they have the same # of CMs scheduled just for the pre show area as they do when AA is actually operating.

It is delays with the refurb work.

What the heck am I supposed to do in WS now?
I can't see Canada and now AA is going to be closed. I guess IDF exists but its' schedule sucks.

What a joke.

Ya could try drinking around the world like the rest of us derelicts.

 

[ToTBellHop]

I believe it’s close to opening; they just don’t want to post another date and miss it.
