“Stitch’s Supersonic Celebration” Closing – Already

Disney officials have announced the closing of the new show, “Stitch’s Supersonic Celebration” which just debuted last month. “We remain focused on providing the best possible entertainment experience for our guests,” says a Disney spokesman. “In order to achieve this, we regularly evaluate and adjust our offerings.”

Not surprising, seeing as Disney just decided to put it in the middle of Tomorrowland with no shade and no seating. In fact, when I visited last, people were sitting many yards away from the show under the shelter of the Tomorrowland Transit Authority track that runs above.

One of the comments on the Orlando Sentinel article says this: “This show was pitiful. I watched it twice, hoping it would be better the second time. Nope. I like to have something different, but please put more thought into your shows, temporary or not. It did not seem to appeal to anyone, even the kids.” I agree.

My thoughts on this are: I don’t blame them for taking it out. In fact, it makes me feel good to know that they can tell which shows aren’t so popular. It gives me more confidence in them. This show had a bad location – and plus, what’s the big deal about go-go dancers? For more information, click here.

Link Away: Disney Community of Tomorrow

Welcome to another edition of Link Away, where I link to some of the best Disney sites on the internet today! D-Cot is personally one of my favorite sites to go to for many reasons. There’s so much to do on here: think of it as a Disney themed Facebook, and more. Keep reading to find out what exactly you can do on this site:

Facebook, Disney edition: Like I mentioned above, D-Cot is just like Facebook, except better. Simply create an account, and when you log in, you can view/edit your profile, view/add/invite “pals”, see the newest, most active, and most popular members, and view the recent activities of the community. Also like Facebook, you can upload your own photos for everyone to see (or just your friends, depending on your privacy settings)!

Great forums, too: D-Cot also has a great forum, where members can discuss anything from Disney World and Disneyland to Dining and music. But don’t get me wrong, there are categories for non-Disney discussions, too. All you have to do is become a member, and then let the discussions begin! And now on to the main event, the Jukebox.

The Disney JUKEBOX: This is by far the best feature of the site. The D-cot JUKEBOX is like your portal to a lot of Disney themepark music. Categories include almost all Disney parks’ audio, plus monorail spiels, some resort area music, and more. You can rate every song, and even purchase some of them on iTunes! Then build a “Favorites” playlist, and also play your pals’ favorites anytime. It’s better than online radio because you choose what to play, and when to play it.

Also in the Jukebox, you can see the Listener list (and what everyone’s listening to), and participate in Mouse Chat, just a live chatbox for the listeners to talk about anything on their mind such as “I’m going to lunch now”.

So go on, head over to D-Cot and see the forums and Jukebox for yourself! (I’m on there as tcwmatt so keep a look out for me). Any thoughts? Let us know in the comments what you think of this site!

“Top 7 Must Sees” Show Replaced, Keeping Stacey

You know the feeling. You finally arrive to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel, set your luggage down, and flip on the TV. You’re greeted with Stacey, your host for the Walt Disney World “Top Seven Must Sees” show (which is more like 107, right?). You wither get a feeling of happiness, or an annoyed feeling. You either like Stacey or can’t stand her.

I thought the show (while she did act somewhat stupid) was a part of my Disney experience – and for that, I always liked her.

I was surprised when I flipped on my resort television this past weekend. Stacey was still there, but she was in a different show called “Must Do Disney”.

On this new show (same channel and everything), Stacey goes through each park and outlines the “must do” attractions. There are a couple reactions and thoughts I had, and I’ll share those with you right now:

She acts more normal, with just snippets from the old show. For the most part, she acts normal (and is obviously not ad-libbing like she did before). However, if you are a fan of her old, crazy self, then you’re in luck, because as she’s going through the must do’s in each park, they show snippets of her from the old show.

She’s not good at acting normal. Maybe it’s just because I’m used to her the other way. But when I was watching her in the new footage, I thought that she was actually bad at acting normal! I think it’s due to the fact (as mentioned above) that when she acted crazy, she was ad-libbing…and now, she is reading from a script.

I searched, and haven’t found any news sites with this story on them. So if you’re looking for proof, I have none, except for the fact that on her official website, she has “Must Do Disney” listed in her resume.

What’s your opinion? Would you rather have Stacey in the new, less crazy show, or did you like the old show better? If you’ve seen the new show, let us know your opinion now! Photo: Stacey Aswad
