Disneyland's cast members that are affected by the fires are being offered sanctuary at Disneyland Hotel after being displaced from their homes.

Best commercial I've seen from Disney in a while (and of course it's from the bright spot in their Experiences portfolio, DCL).

Nice to see they employed a puppeteer to do the performance of the towel buddy, instead of just doing it as yet another CGI animation effect.

This is part of the reason why this promotional clip ‘works’ so well.
It is an actual real performance, with a real character for most of the shots.

Nicely done, and refreshing to see.

I didn’t even realize that. It just “felt” right.

Yep.

The magic of puppetry.

I should know, did it for about 40+ years in various forms.
I can spot a puppeteered performance, and a good one at that.

I just saw this commercial and came here to see if anyone was talking about it, Disney needs to put whoever made this in charge of their marketing department, I haven’t had my heartstrings pulled like that by a Disney commercial in years.
