I used to work at VoTLM and I didn't want to be pedantic but...Ursula is actually a multi person puppet

The Ursula animatronic is in regards to the ride, not the show.I used to work at VoTLM and I didn't want to be pedantic but...Ursula is actually a multi person puppet
I don't believe it was. Because they referred to blacklight puppets before it.
If it is, it's a confusing post.

Seems like the OP was listing a good thing from the show followed by a good thing from the ride; then a bad thing from the show followed by a bad thing from the ride as a way to show that both the show and the ride has both positive and negative aspects.

Yup, sorry for the confusing post. I was simply saying that both the ride and the show have great parts, but also could really use some improvements.
I will miss the show, but I would like them to put something, anything in that theater.

This corner of DHS needs something soon. Since Launch Bay and VOTLM closed it just feels so unloved

Unfortunately that is a common theme with modern Disney.
It is extremely unlikely that this show would come back at this point, I believe.

I'm all for Little Mermaid:Abridged to never come back..And bring back this show in Puppet form instead since they have them..
I'm all for this. Move muppet courtyard to this section of the park.I'm all for Little Mermaid:Abridged to never come back..And bring back this show in Puppet form instead since they have them..
Here Come the Muppets in voyage.
Muppet Vision in launch bay's location.
Muppet Babies dance party at playhouse Disney location.
Throw in a couple of atmospheric shows like great moments in history, add a mullets gift shop and a better pizzerizzo you've got yourself a great little land.
Repurpose the old muppet Vision theater into a new 4d experience while we're at it.

I’ve heard the theater grew moldy. Almost no chance of coming back.
You know, when a building grows moldy, I always fine that it happens overnight and the best thing to do is to leave it alone in the shuttered humid dark environment for years!
It is getting sad that the best ideas for Disney anymore from armchair Imagineering seem to be moving entire lands to mostly give the same thing.

Pardon me while I sit down in the armchair for a moment and sort out the middle of Hollywood studios.
Close Star Tours. Yup, either move it over and lightly retheme it to fit into galaxy’s edge or close it as a whole. Take the building and build a muppets dark ride. Don’t think that’s possible? I did some rough measurements and the star tours show building is roughly the same size as the MK Haunted Mansion show building! More than enough room for a nice dark ride. That will complete Muppets Courtyard as a full land, Ride, Show, Shop and Restaurant.
Next, remove the silly meet and greet in one man’s dream and restore it back to exhibit space. Clean up and reopen Little Mermaid. And finally gut Launch Bay and create a new attraction in the vein of Magic Of Disney animation. Hopefully including a display area, elaborate art giftshop and drawing demo.
…And that’s just for the middle of the park

If you can Star Wars on 2 sides of the park you can have Muppets on Grand Ave, Animation Courtyard and G-force Records ..

I get star tours (including gift shop) ~35,000sqft, Magic King Haunted Mansion ~44,000sqft. There is certainly enough room for a dark ride, but HM is massive!

It is indeed. Not to mention all the dark rides smaller than HM, Mansion just works as a good benchmark for nice length dark ride.
I don't think star wars should be on 2 sides of the park.

Put muppets in the muppet section.
