When it first started years ago as the Walt Disney World Very Merry Christmas Parade broadcast it was just like any other parade broadcast... Tournament of Roses or Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade... It was a true live parade broadcast with a smattering "behind the scenes" glimpses at new developments at the parks. It's pretty much unwatchable now.

I caught a bit last year and there were these teenage "heart throb" "singers"(and I use the term loosely)in which I had ZERO interest. Show me the damned parade and the park. Years ago they showed you glimpses of what was coming soon and it was WONDERFUL. Now it's all tween crap. Loathe it.

ORDDU: In all fairness, there was one young lady who added some dignity to the program when she sang an operatic song that had class. Other than she, the rest of the bunch wasn't worth listening too.

Originally Posted By Dabob2 I really loved the mules (I submit they are a serious contender for most immersive attraction ever - no joke), but they are a period of another time, in that their throughput (number of guests who could ride in an hour) was minuscule.
Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt "About the Wilderness area playground at DCA, what if instead of a roller coaster they brought back the mules?" Not a bad idea, but I don't think they fit into the theme of California. Well, then again, neither does Cars....
Originally Posted By TP2000 California doesn't have mules Hans? I thought the '49ers used them to get their gear up into the mountains to pan for gold.

Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt Yes, but the Grizzly Peak area isn't themed to the gold rush era.
Originally Posted By tashajilek "Those poor, poor mules...." LOL, animal cruelty! "Not a bad idea, but I don't think they fit into the theme of California. Well, then again, neither does Cars...." If the ride is based on terrible traffic and pollution.
Originally Posted By avatarmickey115 Well it seems like my idea wouldnt work out...even if it worked, where would they put the mules? it would be too tight of a space to make a shelter for all those guys...theyd have to bring them somewhere else every night...
