Talking Mickey hasn't been used by Disney for a couple years now. However, I remembered when Disneyland just begun testing out Talking Minnie and Donald alongside Mickey at a DCA event.

It's such a shame they aren't using talking Mickey anymore...my younger son ADORED him.

Especially given the fact that DBP announced the return of Indiana Jones....
Wasn't that the entire point of his shows? I never saw, so I may be mistaken...

This feels like pandemic theater.
I agree.
It's like April 2020 all over again.
I hope the entertainment department can get it's act together. Even the new castle welcome show took 5 steps back. I remember thinking, " Oh, I wonder how grand it will be for the 50th!? Will Cinderella make an appearance with lavish costumes for the fourcourt dancers?!" NO. WE GOT HIGH SCHOOLERS DANCING POORLY IN SHORTS.

You do also realize entertainment is essentially being handed a five dollar bill and being told to make it work with all of these new/returning offerings right? Welcome Show has always been a short and sweet affair.
Indeed. Not the fault of the entertainment department.

And I feel that will be the way going forward. Makes me sick.

I don’t mind the Welcome Show being brief. But get the damn parade going! There is an irony in DL, DLP and TDL announcing the return of parades soon while WDW hasn’t. All three had SIGNIFICANT restrictions during the pandemic but are safely bringing back entertainment sooner than WDW, which has basically had no restrictions for many months.
Guess I’ll enjoy a parade at Universal and then fly to Paris to see one instead…

When it was in front of the train station it was a much better show.
I know why they got rid of it, but its replacement (pre and post COVID) has never lived up to its predecessor.

Does anyone know if Disney has any plans to bring back more character dining anytime soon? I’m going in December and have thus far been unable to secure an ADR for Chef Mickey’s on our one non-park day. It would be nice if there were a few other options to try for.

Art heads cost more to maintain and you need dedicated techs working shifts specifically with the art heads whenever you use them.

Someone reported in one of the threads (i think one of our insiders) that were was a contract for FoF to return early next year.

Yes. I’ve said this too, but even that is ridiculous. Dreamlights returns to Tokyo next month.
