We heard the same things last year about how busy it was going to be...until it wasn't.

↩ replying to DCBakerActually, there might be 3 Most Merriest Shows starting tonight?? We'll see if MK Posts it anywhere.......Rollseyes.......

↩ replying to jrhwdwYep. It’s listed in the app. As it should have been. And if people were good at their jobs it could have prevented all this swirl.
But also somewhat surprising that every blog (even this one) ran with the story with SUCH certainty that it wasn’t performing this year. They should all know better to wait and see how late the incompetent app and website teams will push it before posting times.

↩ replying to jrhwdwOh yes….
Here’s my favorites:
1. Don’t let a CEO appoint himself and his board WELL past his prime…clinging to his office chair like a life raft. Providing zero return to his investors for over a decade.
2. Don’t support egregious price tactics
Such as upsells that create a caste system in their parks that make the whole place look cutthroat and cheap.
3. Call out their “investment” strategy for what it’s been for 20 years…which is replacements to keep the pressure on lack of capacity to continue upsells and FOMO
4. Don’t buy unneeded timeshare blocks that are a bad deal at current prices for the customer
5. Drop reservations for things like annual passes. It a Leisure spot. They don’t need them…nobody is fooled…except fools that haven’t caught on.
…and on…show times are on the list…but further down 😎

↩ replying to wdwmagicMy guess is that it’ll perform through the 29th at the very least

↩ replying to jrhwdwIt's not the end of the world that it was updated today

↩ replying to joanna71985If they didn’t expect you to plan the rest of your visit so far in advance, then I’d agree. But they do. So I don’t.

The next episode of Disney Unscripted has been released, showing a behind-the-scenes look at the transformation of Jungle Cruise to Jingle Cruise:

↩ replying to Thumper 32It's just 1 show. It's not that hard to fit it in

↩ replying to joanna71985One show with only three showtimes, within a fairly tight window in the evening. If you had made a dinner reservation or really any other plans for your MK evening, it might be more than “not that hard” to adjust your plans.
But really, the point is, WDW knew this show was happening. They didn’t just schedule the performers that morning. So not posting showtimes until day of is one of two things: 1) choosing to withhold info, perhaps to create the illusion that it’s a party exclusive show (which makes no sense, the parties have been sold out for a long while anyway) or 2) gross ineptitude.

In years past they’ve intentionally waited until the last MVMCP to finish before acknowledging daytime ops for the holiday parade, castle show, and fireworks. This isn’t really anything new. More unusual that the fireworks and parade were added in advance than that the castle show was added day-of.
