And I've been to DP a handful of times ... it was fun once when a waitress just wouldn't stop playing with my grandfather and he ate it up. But they know when to say when. I haven't been to Primetime in over a decade. Thought the food was mediocre and overpriced and didn't really like the 'abuse' even though it was mild. It's why I don't do Whispering Canyon anymore. The schtick gets obnoxious very quickly when you just want to dine and be left alone. I went there a few years back and told the server upfront that we wanted food and drink and no entertainment and if we were harrassed in anyway, we'd not be leaving a gratuity or paying for the meal. Had a great lunch ... and waiter got 25% tip for leaving us alone.

Originally Posted By Jim in Merced CA Paul Winchell is correct. As is King's Island. What other popular television show family also visited Kings Island as part of a two-part episode?
