The WDW 50th is playing on ABC, just fine for me. Is that what you are trying to watch? So far I'm loving the history they are showing.

No, I was talking about an “Enchanted” stream.
I should have watched it all on ABC, as well. Would have loved to have seen that, as I love Disney history, but, somehow didn’t even know it was on…!!!!! :facepalm::hilarious:
The night “Enchanted” debuted I watched a stream of it at a distance from the top of the Contemporary. Sometimes streamers up closer miss the higher bursts, but, from up there, you see it all, and they feed the soundtrack. I’ve seen streams of HEA from up there before that were really good, so I thought if the show were any good, I would get a good indication. In retrospect, I probably shouldn’t have even reviewed it, but, the stream did nothing for me.
Wasn’t much of a fan of HEA when it debuted either, because of such an emotional attachment to “Wishes”, but, it grew on me over time.
I decided to go with a different stream last night to see what that would be like. I can’t even remember the name, but, it was so glitchy it was ridiculous. By the time I decided to dump it, too much time had passed and I had not yet seen your post, so I just moved on to something else on regular TV, and figured I’ll give it another shot next time they run it.
3rd time’s a charm…?!!!!! :hilarious:

Eventful day at houston...

To resume:

  1. Arrived yesterday.
  2. Lost one of my most important documents in the plane. My global entry card.
  3. found by the time I almost reached the federal entry section at IAH. Talked to clerk who got in contact and went to search.
  4. The plane departed for MAINTENANCE to minneapolis, no way to get it back. Clerk incorrectly redirected us to lost and found on the airport. Probably to was their hands on the issue. Opened a report with United.
  5. Got to the hotel.
  6. The hotel was disturbingly bad in maintenance. The paint chipping in the hallways, wood falling apart on elevator, etc.. Rooms smelling of stale humidity and water dripping from the bathroom, oh. and a towel with dried blood and hair. And the pool was full of dirt and debris. Like a crime scene style run down motel lmao.
  7. Sleep decently.
  8. Woke up and got ready, breakfast that was suposed to be free was closed for covid. They were giving small commercial gas station style snacks instead of breakfast. Was raining very hard.
  9. Got to the calibration center. Cochlar incorrectly shipped it to my aunt's home instead of the clinic.
  10. My old doctor got replaced, again, now with an old dude who is awesome. Props to Dr. Tonini. anyway he offered to open the clinic only for me tomorrow once I got the replacement implant back. stopped raining as we got out of the clinic.
  11. We thanked, paid, left, went to downtown aquarium. Good food and beautiful place. We even got the train ride for free to see the sharks.
  12. We went to walk downtown all was well for a while, then we decided to take the metro light rail system so my sister could see most of downtown area.
  13. All was going well until I took a photo of my sister near a door to show the train stations map on top.
  14. Some black dude suddenly got up and started to curse at me very fast. I had no idea what the hell was going with him. He was pretty violent. I held my grown and I had to pull my sister to my side. He got pretty close to my sister wile insulting both of us. I tried to explain how I could not understand him and he only screamed harder. Thankfully he got off on a station, unfortunately we reached the terminus line and we had to change lines. We did not need this, as we wanted to go back.
  15. So we hopped back. The nearby passagers told me we were good for holding our ground. One of them said that the violent man was a "usual" moron picking up fights with everyone who he thinks got looked bad at. One latino man said we technically were safe, as we were in the front train with the driver and we were in an area meters away from a police station. We will felt a bit rattled.
  16. Boarded back as the train was getting close to depart backwards. We were a bit worried as the violent man was coming back. Thankfully the doors closed as he was getting closer. He of course wanted to pick a fight again because he was actually lining to the exchange line, not to return like us... so he was just moving back and forth picking up crap.
  17. Anyway the metro moved backwards towards the opposite side and no problems at all. We reached Herman's park and we had a great time there checking.
  18. Meet with cousin who thankfully got my replacement device and then we went to eat. we got stuffed and we went later to talk in an starbucks. As my sister had never meet my cousin's wife.
  19. Back at the room. Tomorrow another family meeting before going to MCO.

We don’t really have any trains to speak of here, but, I’ve seen reports of the bus drivers getting threatened and abused pretty regularly. One even got fired recently for calling 911 during her route because of such, from some well-known homeless psycho. SHE got fired, and the loon walked…what the friggin’ F is wrong with that picture…?!?!?!?! :banghead:

They didn’t have ABC in the room…?! :cyclops:
When I was a kiddo, we had access to only 5 channels at home…ABC, CBS, NBC, a local channel (36), and PBS.
No ABC just seems ridiculous… 🤪

I hope you get to catch the special later. I think the huge crowds were only for yesterday, hopefully it dies down a little for you. I hope you have a good time.

OK, just watched a good rerun of “Enchantment” from MSUSA on Resorttv1.
Sorry, still not impressed. No new tech or innovations, and weird awkward pauses at certain points.
Maybe I’ve just seen too many fireworks shows over the years, but, just not an emotional attachment in any way, even with them overdoing the pyro. I doubt this one will grow on me like HEA did.

Wow. Another 1.5 hrs. ‘til show, and folks are cloggin’ up the works big-time.

What did you think? I was not impressed with either of the two new shows. I prefer Happily Ever After and Illuminations to them. I thought the singing in the original music of Enchantment was terrible. I couldn't even understand all the words. Seemed really screechy/ whiney. I especially didn't like Harmonious. It doesn't even come close to the class of Illuminations. Disappointed.
