The kids were wide-eyed & a little girl selected from the crowd had told Hester that this was her 2nd time seeing the show!

All of them-even Lucky-get everyone involved. I read the comments here & just can't picture Lucky w/o a small show like this. Its very entertaining & engaging. While the kids did seem to want to interact more w/Lucky-there were people directing them to stand back. I think this was more a matter of safety. Especially if he is running on his own-like some have suggested??? In any case, we really enjoyed it! I see "AA" being written, but who are we kidding, I'd like to see the size of the battery that is running that thing!

Its ashame, because they made you actually "care" about Lucky. Maybe they were just taking too much of the spotlight away from Lucky? But they had kept the show fun & interesting. I guess people will get to see him walk around now though...

Now all it basically displays is that Lucky can walk-which we already knew. (You see-the 1st time I saw it he walked to get to where he performed with the Diggs.) When I saw it this time it was just a continuation of him walking. OH-and I agree with you SJHYM. I hope they start presenting the dino in a way where we actually start to care about him like we do all the rest of Disney Characters.
