Really? That's sad - I liked him. Do you know if Disney got rid of him or if he moved on to another job by his own choice?

Everything at Hollywood Studios. We watched alot of the street performers for the first time on our recent trip and I'm so glad we did. Anyone see the guys from the "Hollywood Public Works"? Fredrick, Fillmore and their boss? Those guys were hiliarious. We laughed all the way through that one! The ladies dressed up on Main Street at the Magic Kingdom were good too.

On our trip in August, it poured the rain one afternoon, so we slipped into the Tune In Lounge for a drink. The Citizens of Hollywood showed up, and we had a hilarious hour with them at the bar. We met Evie Starlight, Officer Club, and a couple of others. I vote for them as the best street performers!

I don't know the details, but he is no longer working for Disney.
The Frederick Lewenowski character was cut too.

That's just wrong! Both of those guys have been there forever and they're great. I think Goobleman started in 1999, Frederick was there before that.

Citizens of Hollywood ---- Victoria Throckmorton was my favorite of the group, but I haven't seen her for a while :shrug:.

Another vote for Citizens of Hollywood, especially Rosie and Toots. My husband walked out of DHS with red lipstick all over his cheek after Rosie got done with him. It was really funny.

As far as Boss Goobleman and Frederick go, we saw Hollywood Public Works on Oct 25, and they were both there. Maybe some common sense prevailed and they were brought back. Hollywood Public Works is the best show by far.

I was chosen to play the part of "Edna" last summer, so I would have to say "Romeo and Edna" are my favs at the momment. Laying on the screaming hot concrete in a dress was fun!! No really it was fun! My girls were jealous that they picked me! My husband on the other hand ran and hid so they wouldn't pick him:lol:

The new guy is not nearly as good, in my opinion.

In Epcot and DL they have the janitor's that play the drums on their trash cans it's very funny and entertaining to watch!

There was a Mexican Mariachi band outside of Mexico World Showcase. They were talented for sure, a group of maybe 7 or 8 guys. They were really nice, spent some time chatting and took some pictures afterwards. They told me they were from Arizona and had been playing Epcot for 20 years. That's pretty impressive.
