They're going to have to do a lot of post-production work for this one. It's a really dreary looking day outside today.

2:15 MOUACT looks the same as 11AM. Main Street didn't get the Intro but Town Square did.

I do like this setup! 2 Full MOUACTs(Taping Version) No long pauses for Taping. So MOUACT doesn't look like
Cavalcades. Nicely done MK!!!!!

Well, we had a Full MOUACT at 11AM!!!!!! NEVER get tired of MOUACT's Intro!! No Spoken lines were in the Soundtrack. Also, Frontierland was Walking, Performances happened on Main Street-Town Square. Not Complaining, things are different on Taping Day. All of Pooh's Friends were there. Along with Mrs. Claus!!! We haven't had her since MOUACT 2007! We also had a Banner celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Disney Parks' Christmas Day Parade! We also had two Toy Soldiers at the front. It was called Walt Disney World Very Merry Christmas Parade back in 1983 on ABC. Would be nice if ABC did 2023 like 1983............


We'll see what we get at 2PM. So far, Good Job MK! I needed this today!!!!
Everyone stopped walking and got significantly more energetic by the time they got to Liberty Square. Saw it both times, and noticed a significant uptick in energy there versus elsewhere - probably because it was close to the castle?

I'm sorry, but I just loathe the way these are filmed nowadays..There’s no charm, no excitement, The Hough's are just as cold and bland as the performers butchering the Christmas songs......

It needs to be back like this....

It doesn't help that entertainment, even filmed entertainment, is no longer prized as part of operations at WDW. Ideally, we'd have a new Christmas parade if that was the case. My opinion based on seeing it yesterday - it was nice, but nothing mindblowing, and used characters to make up for the floats being rather... limited. The performances I saw filming throughout the weekend were pretty good as well (although some were more pre-recorded than others).
